Computer Cut - Self Adhesive - Vinyl Lettering

VINYL LETTERING FOR SIGNBOARDS

FIRST MEASURE THE AVAILABLE AREA TO ASCERTAIN YOUR SIGN SIZE.

DECIDE ON THE BACKGROUND COLOUR. WHICH MAY BE EXISTING, OR THAT YOU MAY BE PAINTING (please bear in mind that a gloss finish is best for vinyl to adhere to), AND CHOOSE CONTRASTING COLOURS
FOR THE TEXT AND GRAPHICS.

If you are making your own signboard, we recommend plastic as the best material, but gloss finished plywood or MDF board will also provide the necessary smooth surface for applying the vinyl to. The adhesive on the vinyl is very strong, and as long as the surface is smooth, clean and dust-free, the lettering will remain intact for years.

We use compressed foam board, such as Foamex, and can make your sign completely for you if you wish. Please email for a quote, but a rough idea is the normal "builders board" at 600mm x 900mm x 5mm, including the lettering will cost you approximately £45.

DESIGN TIPS FOR LETTERING

It is a good idea to draw a rough sketch of your sign
filling in the panel sizes with a layout that gives you the maximum lettering size that will fit. The bigger and bolder it is, the more chance it will attract attention and be read.

If your sign has no frame then a border will enhance the sign.
You can also use a bolder and/or different font or a
different colour to highlight your name or name of the business.

LETTERING SIZE

A good rule of thumb to calculate the area your lettering will take up, is to multiply the height of the letter by the number of letters in the line. This will give you the approximate length of the line.  Of course this varies, depending on the font used, but don’t worry, when ordering, you should give us the measurements of the space you want to mark up, and we will adjust accordingly.

GRAPHICS AND LOGO’S

We can reproduce most graphics or logos to your specified size
providing you can supply us with suitable artwork.
There will be a one off setup charge for this, depending on the quality of artwork
and the complexity of the design. We will quote you separately for this on receipt of artwork.
We will keep your design on file for future reordering, thus avoiding this charge again.

Finally, please visit our Help Page, where you will find instructions on fitting your vinyl, and remember, take your time and don't panic, and you will find that it is relatively easy to do, fun and satisfying.
