I bought this sign from a guy at Iowa. Measures 6'-2" x 3'-8" It seemed a little shiny when I looked at it and he assured me that all he did was wash it.
I thought the price was a little high, but I was able to get it cheaper than his asking price.
I got it home and after a while, I decided to give it a light buffing and try to remove the marks that were all over the front of it from things being slid around on it.
It turned out awesome and I believe the guy I bought it from was honest with me!
If he's reading this: !!THANKS FOR THE AWESOME SIGN!! and I still feel like I got a great buy!
Out of all the things I stuffed in my motorhome and trailer, this was my favorite buy of the show!

Nice job on the clean up. Picked that out of a questionable neighborhood in Detroit. You would have paid more had I had time to clean it up lol.
Looks great!

Yes, it's embossed. Well all but the "free safety inspection" & "Exhaust System Service"
