The Selway family are now third generation Fair Caterers. They traverse this great country of ours proudly serving only the highest quality brats, sausages, soups, cheese cake, and other tasty offerings. They are experts in the business and highly respected. They needed some new signs this year for their booths at the upcoming Renaissance Fair in Irwindale, CA. and had some very specific needs. Large outdoor signs can be made from many materials, but they needed something light weight that can be easily raised atop their booths and taken down at the end of the Fair. They also needed graphics that would "pop off" the sign and grab your attention from hundreds of feet away, and lastly they needed something really durable that could last for years. That's where we came in! This video shows the construction of 6 signs they will be using this year. Materials included Alumalite, 3M cast vinyl with 3M UV Laminate, printed on our large format HP Digital printer. We loved doing this project and were so pleased they were pleased with the final product! PS: one thing I should have mentioned, and if you're a business owner who is looking at a large sign like the 4x8's shown in the video, is the importance of asking your sign maker if they use a laminator to affix the vinyl and laminate to the substrate. I point this out because the liklihood of wrinkles or air bubbles getting trapped under the vinyl increases if your sign maker manually applies the media by hand. This is a common technique and we use it all the time too, just not on signs this big! We lay the vinyl onto the substrate and run it through the laminator to guarantee no wrinkles or bubbles...
