While most business storefronts already have some form of parking available, just taking it for granted that everyone will be able to locate a spot for them will just not be good enough.

In today's competitive marketplace signs should attract the attention of the consumer and invite them to buy. An advertisement with a distinct and eye catching design or logo can produce a high volume of customers. [Signs and banners](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/) are an investment that will pay for itself. Extra income can be generated by strategically marketing your brand. Our business is to help you create the best design for your specific advertising needs. At [The Sign Studio](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/) we have full color digital graphics to enhance the symbol, logo or emblem you may want to use in creating your banner or sign. A banner is large but portable; it can be moved from a doorway, window or entrance and be placed where you decide it attracts the most attention. A window sign is more of a permanent way of getting the same outcome. If your business does not have the space for a large banner or you just don't want the permanence of a window sign; a site sign or vehicle sign could be the answer. These signs are removable and portable, just smaller in scale. We can still design a logo that is unique for your business. Whether it's a restaurant, daycare, doctor's office, grocery store or even a one- time event we will make sure you are seen.

Correct preparation, installation, maintenance, and storage procedures should be followed, **see (Sections 1 - 4.)** Following these instructions will help to ensure your satisfaction and to safeguard the long life of your signs and vehicle. Due to the many variables and complex nature of automotive finishes, special care must be taken to protect your vehicle: check the area behind the magnetic material weekly and move the sign as necessary to prevent any discoloration or clouding of the automotive clear coat. [![The Sign Studio, Burbank CA, Car Magnetics, car signs, vehicle signs, magnetic signs](http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5086/5233965426_e1d7a967a8.jpg)](http://www.flickr.com/photos/19779715@N04/5233965426/) **1. PREPARATION:** Wash and dry vehicle. To protect your signs and vehicle, wax vehicle surface and the brown magnetic side of the sign prior to applying. **2. INSTALLATION:** Magnetic signs can only be used on smooth steel surfaces. They CANNOT be used on simulated wood-grain panels, fiberglass panels, panels that have been repaired with a non-steel filler (such as -Bondo), or on any corrugated or other irregular surfaces. If necessary, magnetic signs can easily be cut with a razor or X-Acto knife to work around body molding or other obstructions on the vehicle. Apply one edge of the sign to the vehicle surface in the desired location then roll the sign onto the vehicle surface until the entire sign is installed flat onto the vehicle surface. If the magnetic sign is not placed in the desired position, carefully remove by reversing the installation steps and then repeat the process. (Do not try to rearrange the sign by pulling when it is stuck magnetically onto the vehicle. This might stretch the magnetic as well as scratch the vehicle paint!) *** Note: A magnetic sign should never be applied to a newly painted vehicle. Allow at least 60 days for fresh paint to cure. **3. REMOVAL & MAINTENANCE:** Remove the signs from your vehicle weekly. Always remove the sign by lifting from the center of the two opposite sides-never start at the corners, as this may stretch the sign material. In cold weather, preheat the sign with warm water before removal, if necessary. Once the signs are removed, wash and dry the vehicle and all sign surfaces. This keeps moisture from collecting between the signs and the vehicle surface, which can potentially damage a vehicle's finish. To clean the signs, use a sponge and a mild soapy water solution. Never immerse the signs in water, steam clean, or take them through a car wash. A generous coat of wax on the surface where the sign is placed and on the back of the sign itself will help prevent damage. After rain or snowfall, remove signs and wipe dry. **4. STORAGE:** Magnetic signs should be stored either on a flat, even surface, or rolled up (lettering to the outside) around a cylinder with a diameter of at least 3". Never store magnetic signs in a hot vehicle, as they may permanently warp. Do not damage signs by folding, creasing , or placing any heavy objects on top of them. This type of treatment will prevent the signs from retaining their full magnetic power. If a sign does get bent out of shape, you can try to straighten it by placing it on a flat metal surface, such as a file cabinet or refrigerator. If you cannot straighten the sign, it will need to be replaced. WARNING: Automotive finishes and protectants vary by manufacturer; changes in color, shade, and surface appearance can occur with time, daily usage, and exposure to direct, intense sunlight. For care of your automotive finish, please refer to your vehicles Owner's Manual. **Please give us a call at (818) 843-9200 or send us an e-mail at [thesignstudio@sbcglobal.net](mailto:thesignstudio@sbcglobal.net) if you have any further questions.** **[NEED A QUOTE](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)** 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/Design-Tips-for-Effective-Signs/blog/bid/84619/Los-Angeles-Sign-Company-Magnetic-Vehicle-Signs-Install-and-Care#comments-listing) Topics: [Vehicle Graphics](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/design-tips-for-effective-signs/blog/topic/vehicle-graphics), [Magnetic Signs](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/design-tips-for-effective-signs/blog/topic/magnetic-signs), [Glendale & Pasadena Sign Company](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/design-tips-for-effective-signs/blog/topic/glendale-pasadena-sign-company) ## [Los Angeles Sign Company | Safety & Warning Signs ](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/Design-Tips-for-Effective-Signs/blog/bid/84618/Los-Angeles-Sign-Company-Safety-Warning-Signs) Posted by [Julie and Chris Ramirez](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/design-tips-for-effective-signs/blog/author/julie-and-chris-ramirez) on Thu, Jun 6, 2013 @ 06:06 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Los Angeles Sign Company | Safety & Warning Signs **Why Do Safety Signs Matter? ** Safety signs, tags and warning labels are an essential feature to any plant or business, and comprise one of its most important assets. By not using proper effective safety and warning signs, you run a risk of danger that isn't worth the risk. [![Safety Signs](http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5042/5356136355_b9bfe816f6.jpg)](http://www.flickr.com/photos/19779715@N04/5356136355/) **Hints on Designing an Effective Warning Sign** To make your signs and labels as effective as possible, follow these hints. 1. Choose the Proper Header - The header helps get the sign noticed. 2. Choose the Right Material - Installation and ordering costs are often more than the sign itself. As a result, a durable sign always pays for itself with reduced labor. 3. Use Bilingual Warnings - Although the use of a symbol is strongly encouraged in order to better communicate hazard information across language barriers, more and more warnings themselves are now shown in two languages. 4. Learn about the New ANSI Standard - The new ANSI standard for safety signs emphasizes custom design. It suggests that you add an Action statement, consequences, a symbol, use mixed case and, in many situations, add emergency information.

The Sign Studio provides custom building evacuation maps and specialty signs. Building evacuation maps are carefully designed to meet all client and fire code requirements. Our exit signs and exit path marking systems are manufactured custom to your liking. Our building evacuation plans, stairtreads and path marking systems provide clear direction to exits and offer vital egress information and indicate the location of fire and safety equipment available. ** Fire Evacuation Plans and Evacuation Diagrams **Public and commercial buildings (with 10 or more employees) are required by law to have an emergency action plan. An emergency action plan (EAP) details the actions employees and building occupants must take in the event of a crisis. The fire plan is a component of the EAP which emphasizes in-house fire safety protocols and procedures. The fire evacuation plan must include a schematic of the facility that details egress routes to fire exits, safety equipment locations, post evacuation assembly areas and other pertinent information. As a public safety measure, the authority having jurisdiction (Fire Marshal) requires that evacuation plans be posted for the building occupant. **What Are the Codes and Standards? **Much has been written into fire codes and occupational safety regulations about the necessity of posting fire evacuation diagrams. They are required by law in most facilities. Yet visit any number of buildings with posted fire evacuation signs and you will find as many different sign designs as there are buildings. With the absence of a nationally recognized standard to guide facility managers and sign designers with evacuation map development, we have to ask ourselves whether all building evacuation signs are equally effective? Can diagram size, color, floor plan orientation, text or icon styles affect viewer response during an emergency.

For example, women are depicted with a triangle shape, imagery that most people associated with a skirt, men are depicted without this added shape and a child is often holding hands between a man and a woman. If the restroom is ADA compliant, the image of an individual sitting in wheelchair is the most commonly chosen for the family restroom signs. Beyond the basic imagery, [family restroom signs ](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/quote/)are available in a variety of color backdrops; black, blue, green or even white. For lighter color signs, the imagery is often printed in black, whereas signs with a darker backdrop may offer the same imagery but in white forms for visual contrast. Family restroom signs are available in vertical and horizontal layouts, and a variety of sizes. When selecting a sign for your business or organization, keep in mind that the sign needs to not only be easy to identify, but readable from a reasonable distance. Consider the overall size of the space as well as where the average visitor's viewpoint will be when selecting the sign's size. Ultimately, the sign's form and function should be simple, easy to understand and visible for all visitors entering the space. **If you have any questions or need assistance with anything, please give us a call at [The Sign Studio](https://www.thesignstudioonline.com/) (818) 843-9200 or send us an e-mail at [info@signstudiola.com](mailto:info@signstudiola.com).
