Signmakers Workshop returns

Paul Hughes of Western Signs & Printing and the popular “Price It Guide”, returns as host to give some of his experience and advice that he has gained from running a successful sign making business for 13 years. There will be demos throughout the 3 days on the basics of sign making, a must see for anyone in the sign making industry or anyone who wants to be!
Paul says “Last year was the first showing of this feature at Sign & Digital UK where it was really well received, this year it is set to be bigger and better and so will be a big attraction at the show. From feedback last year lots of people wanted tips and advice on fitting vinyl to glass, so I will be doing a demo on how to do that. In addition, last year’s favourites will return including more tips and tricks to help your business grow”.
The Panel Swap competition is running again at the 2011 show and more information will follow shortly.
