I have a customer that brought in a banner with mission statement on it. She wants to sandwich between acrylic. On a previous thread it was suggested that it be siliconed together.

The finished size will be 56" x 13".

It will be indoors so weather isn't a consideration as in the previous thread on acrylic sandwiches.


My question is how to hang this thing.

Thanks for any and all suggestions.

Probably a better link in the archives, but this will get you there.
 
Yikes Deb, that is what you were asking me about....I am a dope.

Funny thing is I was explaining to you about the plexi adhesive and was leafing through the CR Laurence catalog looking for that while we were talking and it still didn't register. D'oh!

I got the cataloge from CR Laurence but I don't seem to be able to get any product support from them as I don't have a clue what my customer needs. But, they referred me to a local distributor of CR Laurence products who does the glass too by the way.
 
Yeah, Kathy, I knew it was your thread and I remembered that your title was something about not knowing what you were looking for. Of course that was after our conversation.

Thanks Wally, I had a feeling you would be able to help.
 
Since my original post on the acrylic sandwich, I found a company, MES , who specializes in wierd lamination processes. They quoted me a price to encapsulate the paper art and bond it onto a single sheet of acrylic. It sounds promising.

I am still waiting for a decision from my customer about whether to go ahead with it, so I haven't seen how good a job they do, but IMHO it beats having to try to seal two sheets of the stuff myself and later having to explain why it didn't hold together.
