Please consider us confirmed for the Blue and Green comparisons. I think the size lends itself well to our EconoStrokes, which is what we'll be sending.

No border products, though. We've stayed away from this intentionally, but I have another company that I will put you in touch with for an "LED neon flex" type product.

I'm going to begin with Project "Border Security" here very shortly and in operation before the ISA Vegas Expo, I'm going to go with Blue for the color.

Where's my LEDs people? Only thing come in so far is the neon, well one LED vendor.

I also think I should have to note for the Border Security Project that replacement parts for service are very hard to come by when it comes to LEDs. Unless it's YOUR job, YOUR servicing and you have plenty of stock left over, it take a lot of time just to get A border units.

I've had some on order form various vendors and so far nothings come in. If I was a service company I'd be frustrated, or have frustrated clients waiting for parts.

    • It depends on what's under the EIFS.   If it's plywood under the foam, then toggles are fine for a lightweight sign.  If masonry, we've come to like the titen HD (simpson strong tie brand) anchors or long wedge anchors.   The Titen HD screws are more user friendly than tapcons IMO.   They come in a variety of sizes, sometimes even at the big home centers.   Just check to see if it's densglass (fiberglass wall panels) under the foam.  Engineeners have told us that densglass isn't "structural" and that things need to be thru-bolted with uni-strut (or equal) sleepers across studs inside the wall.  A few years back, we were called out for an emergency call where someone had installed some large raceway channel letter signs to an EIFS wall that had densglass behind.  They used lag screws.  These held for a while but a heavy snow caused them to fail.   And toggles should work with Densglass but again not for any heavy loads.    In any case don't compress the foam too much.  A sleeve (mentioned above) would be needed for whatever the depth of the foam might be, though probably not needed for something light like an ACM panel.   if it's a really small sign, then appropriate exterior screws are usually OK going into plywood.

    • Are there any recommendations for the best types of anchors to use for lightweight signs on EIFS?  <a href=" https://www.phoenixstuccocontractor.com/"> Phoenix Stucco Contractors</a>
    • Hi   Can anyone tell me the right color red and blue translucent vinyl for the "new" Pepsi logo?  We have a local ice cream spot that recently changed from Coke to Pepsi and we have to replace the graphics on a couple of lit cabinets.   The customer sent me the logo in various formats but it didn't specify the correct colors.   I've searched but keep getting CYMK, etc. for the older logo - 2022 or so.   Thanks!
