First Sign

[Peter Normington]

Sarandaz.

Have you also got application tape?
the principal is the same as doing t shirts.
Cut the vinyl and weed, apply application tape. Position on windoe in correct position with a masking tape hinge, remove backing paper and sqeegey.

Sounds simple. but not as easy as it sounds. You may want to consider applying for full membership to uksb, it is well worth it just to see the many demos, will give you a good instruction to get you going.

[Glen Mathers]

Definetly go for the membership, it’s worth the money for the demos alone, i’ve learn a hell of a lot just through them.

Don’t forget, if you are fitting onto inside of window, you will have to mirror everything before cutting.

Hey Guys i just done my UKSG membership and i done successfully my first two words on window….i am so excited my first sign is on our shop window. FOOTBALL RUGBY KITS MADE TO ORDER.

Thanks Peter,Glen,John &Dawn for your advises.I put this sign outside.It looks lovely except its not in line. Is there any rules for measurement and allignment of sign.
And i dont know how long do i need to rub with squeeges.
when i took the app tape off one or corners were,nt stick with window.and i can see little pubbles aswell, hardly noticable but i would say it was quality work.
What about Xpres Versacam1 for cutting they want 1300 quids for that. or is there any other cutter you suggest with nice user friendly software package.

well done Sarandaz, feels good first sign doesn’t it, I imagine you mean bubbles if you get bubble use the tip of a very sharp scalpel and pierce them, rub your finger over and they dissappear like magic 😎
