Beverley Hotel was looking to revamp the vinyl letters on the front of their building. The original vinyl letters were gold and simply said Beverley Hotel, now they were looking to have the sign painted. Many businesses are now having their signs painted as when you choose to have your logo painted it really does convey a greater sense of quality to the customer. We used a product from Modern Masters’ metallic paint line in this project, this company specializes in artistic paints. This paint is of exceptional quality, it shimmers and shines as if it was actually a metallic surface, not to mention it will outperform the vinyl in vibrancy, colour, and longevity.
We used a vinyl stencil for this project, the vinyl used was a type that had a good adhesive because it needed to adhere to a cloth surface. After we applied the vinyl we primed the first coat with a Rustoleum primer. This primer is specially formulated to stick to many different surfaces. Then we did 3 top coats of the metallic paint. It was slightly cooler so we had to wait a little longer between coats. The paint was applied with a small round brush made by Bennett, we chose this brush due to the size of the letters and the need to delicately apply the paint. This project took a full day on site and around 4 hours to cut and prepare the stencil.
A small 4-foot scaffold was used to access the awning, this was ideal for the extremely busy downtown Toronto street of Queen St W. Pedestrians had no trouble maneuvering around the scaffold and our work did not congest the flow of the sidewalk.
You can see the sign from either direction when you are traveling on Queen St W, whether you are traveling east or west, the gold metallic paint is highly visible.
