How to Print and Install Floor Concrete Graphics 

Thank you for your support Gabriel! Glad they can help you out and help you grow!

Thank you! Welcome to the show, not much those HP's can't do. Best of luck in your new ventures!

Welcome Robert and thank you! I would LOVE to learn a little thing or two from ya! That is what I want to do but just don't have the "knack" for it. I can't draw a stick figure let alone freehand anything. My strong suit is working with flexi, I've been using it for about 16+ years now. Sometimes ya just gotta start somewhere and go for it.

only way to get wet is to get in the water! my mentor started painting signs in the late 50's and he taught me this "I can teach a monkey to use a paint brush, I cant teach a money style and layout design"@@TheSignGuy

That is soooo true!!

Thank you Mike! It is very intimidating, at first. You should try smaller projects with paneling at first. It does not have to be huge but just to wrap your head around how it all works. Having made mistakes in the past helps to prevent them in the future. It's always more complicated then the customer thinks, right? LOL BTW, I'm FAR from a pro on this but sometimes you just gotta send it!

If I did not point it out I doubt anyone would have known. The material never creased like other material would have, I'm sure that help hide a lot as well. I knew and I guess that bothered me more then anything, but again I still make mistakes. Thanks for stopping by and watching!

Yeah buddy, it was a little more difficult then I thought. Sometimes you just gotta go for it and let your experience prevail. The second part was not a happy ending... LOL but I checked on it over the weekend and it's holding on and going strong!

Same here.. laming big prints are not fun. I started subbing the bigger stuff out, every 1 out of 20 I do goes right in the trash... 🤣🤣

Thanks

It sure is! Not a real complicated project but the time crunch and the pressure to get this done was uh, a little nerve-racking! LOL

Thanks for watching, it was a learning experience for me as well! I love the panel options in flexi, saves me a TON of wasted media.

Hey Eric, It's ALWAYS something, right??? I do appreciate you tuning in and watching, so THANK YOU!!

That was a nightmare, that's an understatement... I generally don't make those kinds of mistakes but hey it's been a while. lol Thanks for watching!

@@TheSignGuy I always watch. I learned a lot from you

The county scrapped the repair, they felt like it was a waste of money. The damage was done and it's unsupervised area so they can't stop people from driving, kicking and scuffing it up. It's still holding up pretty good a little fading but over all if it was not abused it would look 100 times better. I'll post up a few picture of what it looks like 6 months later. Thanks for watching Julia!!

Thank you, it was a pain and I about messed it up. Learn from my mistakes....

Thanks for watching!

Thank you!

I trimmed the material by hand. Cutting that material in the cutter would have wrecked a 60 degree blade and pretty sure tracking for 20 ft would have been off.

Fixing the lettuce was do or die. 🤣 $3415 installed 🤫

@@TheSignGuy Great job! If you don’t mind sharing… what was the cost?

@@danjg1499 $3415

@@TheSignGuy sorry I should have been more clear, what was your cost?

@@danjg1499 Oh, I had about $750 in media, ink and other little consumables.

No way I can do it now, years have passed and my knees are even worse. I'm bull headed though and just pull on through it to get it done.

Thanks Dom! Havent done anything yet. I have a estimate into the county for repair but have not heard back yet.

Thank you, still new to all this and still learning!

Got it sorted, thank you. I would have not known that if you never pointed it out!

Thank you! Well I did not use a squeegee for the big one, the smaller ones on the outside (at the verry end of the video) long story... I did . The smaller two were a very last minute and I used the Big Squeegee and it took minutes to install. Should have done that first. I was worried about tearing the edge of my big squeegee up on the concrete that's why I did not use it the first time. The thickness does allow it to lay flay, and there were some bubbles that the Big Squeegee eliminated. The trimming was with scissors and a OLFA knife.

@@TheSignGuy Thanks a lot. Keep posting; appreciate your content.

I'm the same way, when I think I'm good on ink I run out. When I have plenty of extra ink, it will run for weeks... Lucky for me I have 2 local places about 30 min away I can just pick more up if needed....TSG

I used to have places near me but recently i move to lake charla louisiana amd the nearest is 4 hours away lol 😭

I feel your pain there... lol

Hello good evening ! I just started watching your video last night . I will like to know how much did you charge for this big round job of 20 by 20 ft and knowing it was your first time doing it too so we can learn about prices too. Thank you very much ! 😀

@@claudiaestrada1936 $3800 I think...

Not yet, still working on getting them right before I offer them.

Here in the South a good Year is what I told them. The ink is good for at least 2 years the media about 2 years as well. Ink will fade but it should have stayed put, cant control people.

Technically I have a Prismjet 54 from Signwarehouse.com. It is a rebranded Mutoh 1324x 54" eco-sol printer with different firmware.

@@TheSignGuy thanks for the info. You’ve got a lot of great content
