Sandblasted Signs Pricing Plugin Now Available!

Sandblasted Signs Pricing Plugin In Quick Quote MenuThe new Sandblasted Signs Pricing Plugin is one that I’m really excited to release, from my old-school perspective.  This has been long asked for and many people will find it to be the perfect complement to the Vinyl and Painted signs plugin as far as pricing dimensional blasted signs.

Quick and Easy Pricing Of Sandblasted Signs

You’ll find this plugin to be extremely easy to use even though it has a lot of behind-the-scenes pricing math going on.

First, you do the usual, selecting your blasting substrate (cedar, redwood, SignFoam)… and enter quantity, # of sides, width and height.  That’s when it gets interesting.

Sandblast Mask, Paints & Gold Leaf All In One Place

The next steps are to select your sandblast mask and transfer tape (easily set up in the configuration sections so that they come up the same every time). Enter the amount of time you intend to spend prepping the substrate — cutting and shaping it, gluing, etc. Then indicate the primer, background paint, decorative paint, the level of detail of the job overall, and the number of coats for each paint.

Finally, if you are leafing the sign, select the type of leaf you’re using, the percent coverage of the sign, and the type of size you’re using.

As in all of EstiMate’s plug-ins, all of the most common substrates, paints, leafs, and sizes are included in the default database.

    Would the sandblasted sign plug in be adaptable to router carved signs?

      Hi David!

      The Vinyl & Painted Signs plugin is still best for routing, though we have a CNC plugin on our internal list. The sandblasting plugin is pretty specific.

      Although, as I type this, it seems that if you could configure the blasting time in the setup section, it would work quite well. So I take back what I just said. ;-)

      I’ll try to add an image (never done that before in a blog comment) — hopefully this will work –

      Thanks for posting!
