Last year, Kevin Krippner with Culligan contacted Sarah Hill in regards to sprucing up their existing pylon sign. The existing sign was chipped, faded, out of date, and had their old logo on it. We removed the existing faces, scraped the existing posts, painted the posts “Culligan Blue” and installed the new pan, painted, embossed sign faces with the new logo. The signs looks great, and with such a beautiful exterior we thought we should bring some branding inside with an interior wall wrap. Kevin had put a lot of effort into remodeling the interior of this building, but his existing paneled counter didn’t fit in anymore. Eight38 Graphics suggested wrapping the desk with vinyl graphic, to give the paneling a fresh look that would really STAND OUT!
“I had Sarah Hill with Eight38 Graphics give me a quote on bringing my 40 year old Culligan sign back to life. It was sun faded, rusty, and the lights did not work. I was a bit skeptical at first, because the rust was pretty bad – but their paint job took care of that matter. Sarah and her crew did a great job with the graphics and the implementation of the sign. I was really impressed with the additional suggestions that Sarah had. The one I really love is a Culligan sign that is displayed on our front counter. You will not be disappointed with Sarah and the Eight38 Graphics team” –Kevin Krippner, General Manager, Culligan.
