Great looking job, you have a great way to instruct the steps that are necessary to complete a job with quality and professionalism. I love painting a wall with a Fitch. But I havent tried the foam brush idea, I will have to try that, Thanks David!
Thank-you fer sharin'Dave.....great job! (I thought I was the only one who used those "large-patterns" anymore!!!).the new grafix shops around have no idea how to ever compleat a job like this....the would just sell them a large blank w/vinyl lettering on it!.....no-skool-like old skool :)
Let it sit for about 10 min then lightly go over it with the roller but don’t add any paint to it. This will knock down the bubbles. Temperature determines when to lightly go over it. It’s a trial and error thing.
Tnx a lot, I have to do some similar job soon so this is just a thing I wanted to see. Do you use cutter for pounce pattern or you do it manually? And what is best way to powder pattern? Keep recording it is a pleasure to see such a clean and good work. Tnx!
@@davidographicsguy Thank you for fast answer. Am signmaker (small signshop) but do most vinyl and wide printing. I always wanted to learn hand tehnique and sign painting on walls. So I have to plot my drawing on cutter on pounce setup? Do you recomend some node setup or that is not so important. I do painting signs with vinyl masking, but this is so much better ( for me) and trying to use these lockdowns to pratice hand lettering. Thank you again for help!
Standard butcher paper than this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cyj9ECryQL4.html You can also use a pounce wheel just lightly sand the back to open the holes: Excel Blades 3 Piece Pounce Wheel Set, American Made Serrated Tracing Wheel, Perforator and Embossing Tool www.amazon.com/dp/B00M0KQ7RI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_e6J4CbVCXYDC5 Then a pounce pad to transfer powder through the pattern: letterheadsignsupply.com/pounce-pad Cheers!
Thank you! You're an amazing woodworker! So talented and very unique. Your lamps are amazing! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q2uBbgcSLgo.html
This is exactly what I was looking for. Im doing some lettering for a small cafe on their exterior walls. How did you get patter cut out? Or drawn? I see theres chalk on the pouncer but was there chalk on the pattern too?
You can have a sign shop make you a paper pattern or hand draw one. Then purchase a pounce wheel and a pounce box. This guy shows how to prep the pattern, but you don’t need a disk for sanding, just some 220 grit sandpaper: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uBHdVeXhlsw.html coastairbrush.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Excel_14tpi_Pounce_Wheel_%2811.1mm_%2F_7%2F16%22%29 coastairbrush.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Pounce_Pad_w%2F_Holder coastairbrush.com/proddetail.asp?prod=16oz_Loose_Pounce_Powder
Thank you davidgraphicsguy, I a lot of searching within the hour. I think Im going to go with the transfer paper technique for this upcoming project. Ill just have to print the letters out at work. I definitely want to try the pouncing method but I don't think ill be able to get the items shipped to me on time. Living on a small island has its disadvantages :)
@@davidographicsguy always keeping an eye on your work here, you master the art of letters, in Brazil we have great painters too, thanks friend for your attention.
Couple of questions. . . First, how do you get your pattern on the pounce paper, and couldn't you just use that technique to put the pattern directly on the wall instead of on paper first and then on the wall? Second, I noted that your first and third lines of text each crossed a mortar line on the wall but it looked like raising the lines slightly might have reduced this to just the second line crossing a mortar seam. . . Would doing so have saved you any significant amount of time or effort? I know when I paint a block wall it's always a real pain to get paint into the mortar lines.
Hi Jerry, Thank you so much for your comment. I use a vinyl plotter with a pen tool to make the paper pattern. I know what you mean about the joint lines, I normally sacrifice a little more time for composition/layout. I do the same for vehicles. The fresh gloss paint on the wall made lettering pretty slick. As you know every job has it’s unique circumstances. 👍😀
