Office Sign: Autoservice

Posted by J_J_O on 18 November 2005 at 00:13

Sign I made the other day.
All done in Photoshop CS2.
250 x 111cm fullcolour print made on Roland CJ500, laminated using glossy mactac, applied to 6mm trespa.
Customer put it on the wall.
Photo is a bit off-colour.
This job already got me a new customer.

(and yes, thats a 850)

Nice job JJ

practising what you preach….excellent…….

[talking/typing in an a forum is unusual because you can’t listen to the way sentences are delivered….that’s why text [phone] messages create so many problems because the tone is misinterpreted and then you send another 5 messages to sort it out [they know what the’re doing…]] 😀

Although I don’t completely understand your comment … thanks!

Andrew: also take a look at my earlier posted pics of the Agila – it was my my first complete car (wrapping) job: http://www.uksignboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=14177&highlight=agila

I like the mono chromatic color scheme.. wish i would use it more often.
I think it gives it Class.
I like designs using these colors and then – one Item in a spot color…

I do like that JJ, but what is trespa? Like dibond?

can’t help but think goop may have a point tho :lol1:

Certainly conveys a classy image.

Thanks for the comments guys.
Goop and Shane: I totally agree about keeping the panel without holes … would be great if you can advise me of how to do this on my next job.
Thanks again.

Shane: I can’t explain Trespa very well, but this link shows you exactly what it is.
What would you be using for jobs of this type?
Also visit this link about Australia. 😀

thanks JJ. Had to smile about the comment that 20 mil australians were behind them! Wishful thinking me thinks! The soccer league here was on the verge of bankruptcy not long back. Lucky to get 5000 to a game here in Brisbane 🙄

I would have used G-Bond (a dibond clone but half the price) on an aluminium frame. Bolt the frame to the wall, and glue the face to the frame using extreme bond d/s tape. Perhaps a rivet in each corner. Your stuff reads well tho. Might see if we have a distributor here

One day all signs will be made that way.
