Sandblasted Cedar Signs Product Information

At Sand and Cedar Signs your sign is manufactured from 2 inch thick kiln dried, quarter sawn western red cedar. Once a size and shape is selected the cedar boards are planed, edged and then biscuit laminated together using marine grade adhesives to ensure proper bonding. Your cottage sign blank is then shaped and sanded in preparation for sandblasting.

Sandblasting is a method of natural relief carving. A rubber or vinyl stencil is placed on the sign blank where you do not want the effects of the sand to etch the wood. Where there was no stencil the background is blasted with a high pressure mixture of sand and air leaving behind a textured look showing the natural beauty of the cedar's vertical grain. The stencil is then removed showing the raised lettering or graphic.

Once your cottage sign has been sandblasted it is then re-sanded and sealed with two coats of spar-urethane to keep out the moisture and UV rays. The painting process of your sign is now ready to begin. The paints used on your sign are special sign paints that are also UV and moisture protected. Because of this entire process your cottage sign is built to withstand years of outdoor use be it a small or large sign.
