Shrinkage

Now that's shrinkage! Saw this at a local post office. Over 1/2", not sure what material was used or how long it was on there or who installed it.

Looks like more then just shrinking.... There is a massive fold.

Shrunk into a giant pucker in the middle. Look at the glue residue on the edge! Wonder if it had been done wet...

I do all window decals with a wet application, is this a known issue?

There was a company in Canada that made millions of $ of signs for the USPS.

Transworld Signs. They were eventually bought by a US firm for the contract and moved to the US.

I did subcontracts for them. They used 3m exclusively.

That vinyl is probably 25 years old....I've never been to any post office that had fresh graphics.

The fact that the US government would sub out work to a printer out of the country is appalling.

To me it looks like it got we applied but the center areas didn't dry out fully. Somebody leaned against it a bunch and it shifted up and wrinkled. There is no way that if it was applied flat that it shifted that much and folded like that.

It is possible a fixture or something was shoved against it at some point, but no way to know for sure. I like your thinking though.
