This Shabby chic wooden sign contains several elements of sign making. Firstly the marine grade plywood was profile cut to shape, the wood was sanded and clear lacquered for protection. The sign was then given two coats of white 2 pack paint and then over coated with a base silver paint. The sign was then sanded to give the distressed appearance before being clear lacquered to seal the effect. The cut vinyl detail was then applied to the sanded smooth clear lacquer before having it's final 2 coats of matt 2 pack lacquer.
