printed fascia sign
Hi,
Personally I don’t like them but have been asked to do a fascia which needs do be done as a print. Not done a printed one before – is there anything to look out for?
Am a bit worried about the join to be honest, plus fading as south facing. Will get laminated.
Any input appreciated.
Ta.

how big is the fascia?
-
laminate definately, but avoid yellow if you can, it will be the first colour to fade 🙁 May only be our environment here, but yellow is white in about a year here unlaminated.

George,
havent measured but from memory probably about 15ft wide (think that the 1070 x 170 pixel image supplied will have a bit of a struggle…….)
Shane – ta for that – it is mainly blue so hopefully wont fade so quick.

Marts i cant see any problem with the join are you mounting it onto foam/dibond first?
-
George,
yes – will be onto dibond or foam – not sure yet. Guess am over paranoid of the joins not being spot on as will show with the continual print…
will bear your optimism and faith in mind…
thanks

i usually get both panels on a bench and mount the print as one the cut after then when fitting hope its a nice flat surface

Marts, you cant do a sail track banner? That would fix the join concern.

Martin,
I wouldn’t be worried about the join at all……ignore it….would prefer di-bond [or similar] rather than foam…The new Thomas Cooks, Thorntons etc are all digital onto aluminium and look great.
