Signs A La Carte applied Reflective vinyl on vehicle and renew some signs for State Farm.Signs A La Carte recently worked on a fun project for Chris Madonna, a State Farm agent in West Chester, PA. After purchasing a Smart car, Chris wanted to get the car wrapped for his business. He knew a vinyl vehicle wrap is a cost-effective tool for generating brand awareness, sales, and business growth. We proposed the idea of using reflective vinyl instead of regular vinyl. Though the price per square foot for 3M™ Scotchlite™ Removable Reflective Graphic Films was higher, the more vibrant, 24/7 exposure with reflective vinyl was a critical advantage. Reflective film provides better slideability, air release, and removability for easier, faster, bubble-free installations and removal. With heat removal, reflective vinyl leaves little or no adhesive residue. Signs A La Carte gave Chris a mock-up of what his car would look like with a wrap, and he loved how it brought the graphic to life. To protect the vinyl, we applied a clear laminate to shield it from fading, scratches, and road debris. Chris Madonna really loves the new design of his car. He is so happy that his business name is visible day and night. When Chris dropped off his car, he discovered we can do anything with vinyl, like building signs, directory signs, any kinf of signs to promote your brand indoor and outdoor. In addition to the vehicle wrap, Chris also needed to update his business hours and change the post panel in front of his office. We removed the old signs and replaced them with new signs. As you can see here, we replaced the vinyl on the business hours sign and updated it with Chris’s new hours. To manufacture the post sign, we cut a medium density overlay (MDO) panel. This is a type of material produced with a high-quality, thermosetting resin-impregnated fiber surface bonded to one or both sides under heat and pressure. The sign’s shape has a half-oval at the top, which can hold one-third of the logo. Signs A La Carte applied a red and white printed vinyl cover with a laminate and then installed it on the post. Testimonial from Chris Madonna: Thanks guys, as always great work, and done quickly. Call them when you need a new or better look. Not only can vinyl be used on cars, but it can also be used for signs and building graphics to give brands and promotions greater visibility. The material can easily be printed on a large, eco-friendly printer. Unlike paint, which requires greater patience to apply because of the level of detail, vinyl lasts longer and is easier to apply.
Chris Madonna is a great Signs A La Carte customer who educates his clients about all types of insurance, including auto insurance, motorcycle insurance, home insurance, renters insurance, life insurance, business insurance, and more.

Long-lasting and precise construction, directional and directory signs that meet the needs of any businessWhen a site is under construction, signage is important. It shows which company is working on the site or which business is under construction. When the building is complete, signs that direct people through the building are also imperative. And don’t forget about the builder’s vehicles—builders with their name and contact info on the side of their vehicles are more likely to get inquiries from people with similar projects. Construction sites are an ideal setting for making your brand visible to the public. Using high-quality materials and color matching, Signs A La Carte can customize your sign project, brining your creative vision to life and getting your brand noticed. We’ve already completed several projects for commercial builders and property managers. Take a look at a few of our examples below. A Logo and Lettering for Hazley Builders Thanks to the new graphics on their vehicles, Hazley Builders can grab attention with a unique design that represents their brand and includes their logo, company name, and website. Whether they’re on the road, on a sales call, or parked in front of your business, the company gets noticed. Signs A La Carte offers various types of wraps for fleet management, including half-wrap or full-wrap vehicle graphics. Since we print all graphics on our digital printer, we provide the same color and high-resolution graphics every time you need a new vehicle decal. Post Signs for Spire Signs A La Carte manufactured two types of post signs for Spire. One is made with 6” x 6” x 10’ wood posts, and the hanging sign has a panel made of 96” by 16” MDO. The other is made with 4” by 4” x 5’ wood posts. Between the posts, the panel will be made of MDO. On all signs, we’ll flush their logo customized with a specific red acrylic. Spire will install the posts on their construction sites so if someone is interested in their project, they’ll know Spire is doing the work. Directional, Directory Signs, and ADA Signs for Drexelbrook Catering Signs A La Carte designed and manufactured 3D signs with different layers of material for the interior building at Drexelbrook Catering. The base is a brushed aluminum material with a black acrylic face. On top of the frame, we added the cut-out logo in a whiite acrylic circle with UV printed graphics. We adhered a small brushed aluminum plate with black textured vinyl. Frames are mounted to the wall with standoffs made from brushed aluminum to match the identification signs. The building’s luxurious appearance makes visitors want to return to the space. Like What You See?

Image is everything in business, a reflective adhesive vinyl on the car is a very good choice.At Signs A La Carte, our customers usually ask for a specific wrap on their vehicle to represent their company. We offer three different types of wraps: full wraps, half wraps, and decals and lettering. Full Vinyl Wraps A full wrap covers the entire vehicle, even the roof. The design typically represents large format graphics that sometimes include pictures. The way it’s assembled gives your vehicle a clean, professional look. Half Vinyl Wraps Half wraps are more economical choices for fleets since they use less material than full wraps. Big and bold graphics are generally only on the sides or back of a vehicle—two areas that will positively impact your business. Custom Decals and Lettering Custom decals and lettering are great options for companies that only want to include basic information on their vehicles, such as their name and/or logo. A website or phone number can also be added. By choosing the right font, you’ll make it easy for your potential customers to see your business’s information. Printing on Reflective Vinyl We typically print on a high-quality product from 3M or Avery, but recently, we did a wrap with a new product from 3M: a reflective vinyl that glows in the dark when charged by light and heat. The reflective adhesive vinyl is four millimeters thick and comes with clear permanent adhesive backing. Because it’s protected by a gloss laminate, it can be used indoors or outdoors, is waterproof and UV safe, and will last for years. We used the reflective adhesive to completely wrap a van for Adam’s Auto Parts. Adam came to Signs A La Carte to work on his business graphics with our designer. The design looked beautiful on the computer and even more amazing in person. Benefits of Reflective Vinyl Once the job was complete, we realized that reflective vinyl provides endless choices for wrapping various surfaces. Below we’ve included some of the types of reflective vinyl and the benefits of each.
Wrapping various surfaces with reflective adhesive vinyl provides a lightweight, economical alternative to paint for your fleet or architectural applications, indoors and out. Since reflective vinyl is waterproof, you can even wrap your boat.

Electric cars with advertisement.Check out this amazing project that we finished right before Memorial Day!

Vinyl is useful for any type of wrap, sometimes it is difficult to wrap objects.Sometimes wrapping an object is more cost effective than painting it, especially when you’re working with a complicated design. It’s easier to correct a shape before printing than it is to repaint a wall. Vinyl wrapping provides endless creative and branding opportunities. But it’s sometimes hard to wrap certain items because of the complexity of the elements. Here are three important things Signs A La Carte considers for each vinyl project. The Shape Even though vinyl can handle deformity, sometimes when there’s too much distortion, the adhesive behind the vinyl cracks. Curved shapes and spheres are almost impossible to wrap. The Signs A La Carte team has to use cast vinyl for these shapes. Wrapping a bike? Consider painting it instead. With all of the curves on the bike’s frame, a vinyl wrap will take significantly longer to complete. The Surface Our customers frequently ask if we can refurbish their signs. Our response: “We’ll see what we can do!” Vinyl must stick perfectly on the surface of the sign to look good and withstand the elements. We ask our customers to bring us their sign or send us a photo so we know exactly what we’re working with. When Signs A La Carte does mural wraps, we bring our adhesion test kit to test the wall and determine which vinyl to use. Vinyl doesn’t work well on wood if the surface is rough and untreated. This also applies to rusted metal. The Temperature Vinyl is fabricated to be durable and endure deformation. Temperature can negatively impact adhesion to a surface and shorten the lifespan of the vinyl. Rapidly changing temperatures or temperatures that are extremely hot or cold are not good for vinyl—the finish will peel and crack. We don’t recommend installing outdoor wraps in below-freezing temperatures because the vinyl adhesive won’t stick. We Can Wrap Anything with Patience No matter what you want to wrap, Signs A La Carte can do it. However, preparing the area and applying the vinyl might take longer than usual. Examples of some of the less-common objects we’ve wrapped include:
Vinyl wraps provide an economical way to decorate surfaces, and they’re easily removable. From walls and posters to storefront signs, Signs A La Carte can wrap anything with a smooth surface. We can also protect your vehicle against extreme elements and road debris while making your brand visible to potential customers.

Commercial fleet wraps increase your marketing strategies and the business connections you can make during the completion of the actual task.Nowadays everything is visual. Have you ever noticed that wrapped vehicles grab your attention as you drive down the road? That’s the goal! Wrapped vehicles are made for mobile marketing, and they work. These vehicles stand out from the other cars on the road because they have a nice look and design. Signs A La Carte handles fleet wrap. We work with customers to help them promote their brands on the go. Our customers want to grab attention with unique designs that represent their brands, including their logo, company name, website, phone number, and more. Here are a few reasons you should visit Signs A La Carte if you’re thinking about professionally wrapping your vehicles. We Come to You Signs A La Carte will come to your business to see your vehicles. We bring color samples to match your desired colors as closely as possible. You Always Have the Final Opinion After you decide on a color and design, we’ll always send you proofs to review before we print and apply your graphic on the vehicle. Quality is Our Focus We use high-quality products, 3M or Avery vinyls and laminates. These products are custom designed for the exterior of your business trucks, delivery vans, or service cars. You won’t have to worry about fuzzy, messy, or unprofessional logos slapped on the side of your vehicle or conflicting color schemes or fonts that don’t align with your brand. Lamination (treating the vinyl with a laminate layer) is useful because it prevents the colors from fading and protects from UV, dirt, and debris. We’re Here as Your Fleet Grows If you have more than one vehicle to wrap and we already have your graphics, we can easily reprint everything multiple times. Your vehicles will all look the same, and you’ll be recognized on the road. When you return, we’ll be ready to take care of your entire fleet. The Fence Authority Example The most common types of commercial fleet wraps are lettering and logo cut letters. We use a Graphtec machine that cuts exact shapes. Here’s other examples of the vehicle fleet wraps Signs A La Carte did for: Heiler Painting : Hazley Builders: As we spend more time commuting—an average of 26 minutes one way—businesses have a lot to gain from focusing their advertising efforts on the road. Printing costs are low, and considering the 3,000 to 7,000 times your wrap will be seen per day depending on the location of your vehicle, it’s worth the investment.

How to Add Wall and Window Graphics Inside Your Business by Signs A La Carte- West Chester, PA-2/19/2019 Learn more about how Signs A La Carte can use wall and window graphics to promote your business and make it more inviting to potential customers.Did you know your walls and windows are excellent places to customize your business? As a business owner, you have a large area where you can display information about your company or simply personalize it with an eye-catching graphic. You could also cover your wall entirely or partially with pre-cut vinyl.
Prefer to only partially cover your wall? We can apply vinyl-cut letters, numbers, or shapes. Your monochrome or multi-color design is cut with the plotter. Not only will your custom vinyl decorate your space, but it will also promote your business anywhere inside your building. A new product on the market gives you another option for covering your walls: wallpaper. It’s more ecological than vinyl, and to stick it on the wall, we just wet the back surface with water. Since it’s printed on a large printer, your wall will be covered with four-foot wide bands of paper. Plus, the product can be stretched—we aren’t afraid to rip it when we apply it! Window Graphics If your business has windows, you can cover them with custom vinyl graphics. Cut lettering is the most frequently used decal. It can display your store hours, product lines, and of course, your business name. You might also have conference rooms surrounded by windows. Maybe you want privacy, but you also want natural light to pass through. Signs A La Carte has exactly what you need. You can’t see through etched vinyl, but photons can still cross the translucent surface. Best of all, it looks great! On a car, monochrome cut lettering is good for promoting your business economically, and it’s also a long-term investment. Include your name, phone number, logo, and website, and when drivers see your car on the road, they’ll think, “Hey, I need to give this place a call!”

Signs A La Carte- West Chester, PA- has a A Guide to Vinyl Signs to help you custom any kind of signs.In a previous post, we answered some common questions we get asked as a full-service, custom sign company. Another question our customers ask: what does it mean when we say full service? Signs A La Carte has a large printer that can print any type of vinyl and wallpaper we apply on various surfaces. Here is a list (not exhaustive) of the types of vinyl signs we can create. Wall and Window Graphics The printer uses primary colors to reproduce all pictures and designs for your project. The chart below represents the colors we can print. Windows and walls are great surfaces for vinyl application—they are flat, and the space can be used to promote your name, your brand, your tagline, and your beautiful pictures. Vehicle Wraps At Signs A La Carte, we discuss ways to maximize blank space on your vehicle with the message you want to convey. We provide four options for advertising on your vehicle:
Prefer something removable? We create vehicle magnets! However, these magnetic stickers require extra care than vinyl wraps and must be regularly cleaned to prevent rust. Monument and Dimensional Channel Letters Maybe your business is in a business center and you want customers to recognize your business from a distance. You might need dimensional or illuminated letters. If your business center has no monument sign or pylon to indicate which businesses occupy the space, we can install a sign with your design. Signs A La Carte can also update your business name on the face of an existing monument sign or pylon. Building Signs Channel letters can help call attention to your building and business. We can also create other building signs to point to your location, including a post, sign rider, store front sign, and more. Lobby and Interior Signs When customers enter your building, their first impressions are key. Did they see your logo? The name on your desk? A directional sign? These little details are important for nice Lobby Sign and Interior Signs, and the Signs A La Carte team can help improve the visual experience for your customers. We can also create an ADA sign if needed. Trade Show Display Are you promoting your business at an event? You need a trade show display. Signs A La Carte can create a canopy, runner table, banner, roll-up banner, flags, posters, and more. These exhibition booth pieces show who you are, where you are located, and what you have to offer. Signs A La Carte specializes in indoor and outdoor signs to showcase your business and attract more customers. Even if you don’t know exactly what you want, we can help! Just give us a call.
