Thanks Lori. I just received an e-mail from the sign depot.
They said they can't print yellow font on a blue sign for some reason I don't know why. Their website says they have the colors. Disappointing.
I was thinking of going with blue with white font signs, but I kept thinking about it last night wanted to find some way to make them stand out more from the rest.
That yellow font against the blue would have been very eye catching.
Then suddenly it hit me! I have the perfect solution.
I'll go with blue signs with white font, and paint the letters and numbers with glow in the dark paint!
Make a stencil cut out and spray it on each sign.
Twice the exposure!
Potentially customers will be able to see it night and day!
I did something simmilar to that. I bought a few red magic markers and inside of gutterdogs colored it red. I had a pic of the pile of signs I had done but lost all pics when My comp blue screened. That was so black white and red were on the sign and save the add on of another color. I save the one sign just for posterity lol! didnt color in that one. The sad thing was after a couple of days or a week or 2 the signs that were still up the red had turned closer to pink!! lol!! NOT COOL!! I think a stencil like you said and a spray paint would be a better idea like you said. The color wouldnt fade from the sun

The contrast is dramatic and the photo looks authentic. Not "enhanced" with photo editing if you know what I mean.

Man, we LOVE to see that Big Hose ! I think it conveys value to the customer. A guy was supposed to clean my A/C Ducts, showed up wth a Shop Vac !!! I sent him packing, called another company with a truck mounted unit. They rolled out the BIG Hose, earned my business.
