Our signs will look great after years of service and very little
maintenance. Here are some examples of signs installed, from left
to right in 1984, 1986 and 1996. As you can see, there is very little
wear and tear:

As an additional example, here is an example of signs located
at the Newberry Volcanic Monument in Oregon. On the left, you see
a wooden sign, to the right of it – a fiberglass sign installed
at about the same time. A third picture is a picture of a brand
new sign... Can you tell which two signs we produced?

Our signs are very easy to maintain. All you have to do is spray
and wipe them with “Formula 2001” with UV protectant
or pressure wash them. Below is the picture of the sign that was
cleaned 8 years after installation. We cleaned the bottom right
corner to begin with…. Plus, bullet holes, such as the one
in the picture to the right can be repaired on site.

Our Shields, as shown below on the left, are made of solid fiberglass
and are practically bullet proof and ageless. Plus, our unique mounting
technique helps you avoid making holes in those beautiful and treasured
items. Compare it to the wooden counterparts, directly to he right,
and you'll see what kind of problems you'll avoid by
putting our products to the test in your area…

Every one of our signs, as shown below in the left, is sandblasted
or routed and puddled with fiberglass gel coat so it does not need
repainting. You will never have to maintain and repair them like
the wooden ones on the right….

At Country Classic Inc. we developed a unique way of mounting the USDA Shields and other emblems. This process allows our clients to mount these itmes without drilling throught them, plus it minimizes theft and damage.
As you can see on the pictures below, we insert T-nuts in the back of the shield and seal them with fiberglass. Our clients use allthread to mount the itmes. Pelase feel free to contact us if you have any questions about this process.
We hope you'll enjoy our site. Please feel free to contact
us with any questions or comments. We look forward to working with
you!
