Here are four wall quotes that I did this past weekend. I used oracal 631 and had a rough time getting the fancy script to stick on the tan wall. There was not enough area to the quote for it to have...

Thanks for the info. What would be a good way to test to see how well the wall is prepped/painted? I would assume that the walls are not painted the same in all areas, so would testing the paint in a...
Good. I think that I have some at home. Plus, signwarehouse.com has it in several colors. Thanks to everybody who has provided feedback. I am trying to get my foot in the door to the vinyl business...
