Ordering sandblasted signs for Cartersville, GA, businesses puts you in the company of professionals who like to go for the wow factor. These signs look great on your façade or mounted perpendicular to the wall on an ornate hook. Combine the look with a monument or post and panel sign for additional display options.

Understanding the Beauty behind the Sandblasting Process

We start with a substrate that becomes the sign board. After discussing the design that you favor, we create a stencil and use it to mask off portions of the panel. Next, we begin the sandblasting process, which eats away at the material that is not covered. After we are done, we remove the stencil, clean the product and then apply primer, paint and a finish of your choice.

Who Uses this Sign Option? How?

There are plenty of uses for sandblasted signs. Case in point is our State Farm client who selected a sandblasted cedar board for his signage. We added the brand-specific red and white paint. Even so, the sign stands out because of the manufacturing technique our technicians used. Also, it fits in perfectly with the surrounding area. As a result, our client is a highly visible part of the local business community who succeeds in differentiating himself from the competition with a creative signage choice.

Of course, you do not have to be in the insurance business to appreciate the unique character that sandblasting gives to your sign. These types of products are also suitable for exterior signs mounted in front of law firms, accountancy offices, and retail locations. On the interior, they are ideal for the retail environment where the classy look and wow factor can make a difference in the buying decisions of the shoppers. These products also make great wayfinding displays.

Combining Sandblasted Signs with Other Products
