All
lettering uses banner vinyl. A close look will show
that it is a softer material and bonds better to the banner than
standard vinyls. Thus when
you roll it out again after storage, there are no creases and it will
look good for a long time.
If you want to change the dates on a banner this can be done with the
assistance of a hairdryer, meths and a cloth. However the longer the letters
have been on the harder it is to get the glue off. You
will save a lot of effort, if you take off redundant dates as soon as
you take it down rather than when you come to use it again.
Two tips
 |
Gentle use of a hair dryer makes it a lot easier.
|
|
Any adhesive is best cleaned off with meths, otherwise dust will
stick to it, with consequent discolouration over time.

Storage of banners
Most damage to banners happens when they are put away safely, simply by
what is stored on top of them. It is best to store banners around a tube
to avoid creases which have to be got out later. If you do crease a
banner, hang it up by both ends at the same time and put a weight (a
heavy roll is ideal) in the middle, so as to stretch out any creases.
Hanging of banners
|
Always
keep the banner taut at the top. A sagging banner disgraces both of
us. If you are using a wall regularly as a banner site, consider
permanent fixings. We supply banner rail, complete with eyelet bolts at
10 euros (stg £6.50) per metre + VAT, for a fast and firm fixing
but only for collection. A lath attached to the wall,
screws and washers will suffice.

Hanging across the highway is now the subject of a European
directive. You need steel wire etc.
|
| In my
experience highway authorities do not permit banners more than two feet high
to be placed across the highway
