Sandblasted Redwood Signs and Wood Signs Can Add A Rustic Look To Any Location

Sandblasted Redwood Signs and Wood Signs

When you are looking for textured or three-dimensional signs redwood can't be beaten. It has a natural elegance and appeal. Sandblasting brings out the dramatic beauty of the grain and gives the sign a carved look.

The Natural Beauty of Redwood

Redwood lends itself to unique shapes - ovals are popular as well as arched tops - with custom cut corners and edges you can get nearly any shape you can imagine. You can even have your sign enhanced with gold leaf for a truly luxurious look. Since each piece of wood blasts differently, every redwood sign is completely unique.

One of the World's Most Durable Woods.

Redwood is less likely to warp, split or cup than other wood sign option. Natural resistance to moisture, decay and insect damage has made it the premier choice for both indoor and outdoor signs. With a minimum amount of maintenance, your new redwood sign will last a lifetime. Redwood is a very strong sign surface that is rarely affected by the wind. TheSignChef uses only select grade, clear heart redwood. We offer 1.5" and 3" finished dimension redwood, and our standard blast depths are approximately 1/4" to 3/8".

Creation

The Creation Process begins using Grade A cedar planks that are double kiln dried, which better protects the sign from bowing. They are then bonded together with biscuits, dowels, and high-grade, weather resistant epoxy. Next, the wood is cut to shape and the sign blank is covered with a rubber mask cut from the digital design. Sections of the sign that are going to be sandblasted have the mask removed, leaving the raised areas protected. The design is then sandblasted into the wood, leaving a natural, beautiful wood pattern. Signs are then primed, hand-sanded, and primed again as many times as it takes to ensure that the sign is properly sealed against weather elements. Finally, the primed, sandblasted sign is hand-painted to match your design.

Installation

Here at TheSignChef.com, we know the process isn’t over once you place the order for your sandblasted wood sign. After all, isn’t the purpose of your new sign for people to see it? We understand that installing your wood sign yourself may seem like a daunting task, and maybe you were even planning on hiring someone to do it for you. But, before you go through the hassle of finding a sign installation company, trying to work around their schedule, and factoring in the extra $100 plus for their services, let us show you just how easy doing it yourself can be.

By self-installing your custom sign, you can save yourself time and money (money that you could instead invest in an even bigger or snazzier sign than you originally thought you could afford). So, how do we help you with this process? Well, we offer a variety of mounting kits and accessories that can ship with your order and help you have your sign installed as soon as possible. Common ways to see sandblasted wood signs mounted are on monuments, between posts, hanging and flush.
