Sandblasted Signs
Our sandblasted signs are manufactured using a wide variety of materials such as wood, sign foam, HDU, PVC,, stone, tile, marble, brushed and mill finish metals, vinyl, MDO and MDF. Our services utilize the best suited material combinations for each project. This allows us to provide signage solutions that fit your budget and needs.
Redwood and Red Cedar
WARRANTY - There is no way to warranty a product of nature. We take great care in the assembly of our wood planks by using a combination of biscuits, dowels, and marine grade epoxy. The wood planks we use are double kiln dried, which is more expensive but better insures against bowing.
ADVANTAGES - Clear grade wooden signs are solid. A plank of wood will not give any if you hand apply pressure to it.
DISADVANTAGES - Wood expands and contracts with the ever changing seasons. The primer seal may be broken (example - a landscaper kicking a rock from a mower), which allow the outdoor elements to deteriorate the wood. It is very hard to detect such deterioration, so routine inspections are required to protect your sign investment.

HDU Sign Foam
WARRANTY - HDU Sign Foam unfinished is warranted for 10 years, indoor or out, against deterioration, warping, and cracking. It is 100% waterproof, unaffected by temperature and will not rot or decompose. High Density Urethane material is preferable on most projects, and is a must on outdoor sign projects.
ADVANTAGES - SignFoam will not warp, crack, or bow like solid wood when exposed to the elements. It is slightly lighter that wood, which might be a consideration for a suspended sign, and saves in shipping. HDU Sign Foam can be seamlessly laminated together to create any size shape or form.
DISADVANTAGES - HDU Sign Foam is slightly flexible, which might cause problems on long, narrow signs. If a dimensional sign is going between posts, or in a situation where it might take abuse from wind or pedestrians, consider having us laminate a backing board for reinforcement.
