The best just keeps getting better! We’ve listened to everyone’s suggestions and made some tweaks to our Proximity Marker design…
It’s the same durable, steel holster with the pen and tape measure holders that we had before. That part hasn’t changed. What is new is the card. On the old version of the marker, the card and the plexiglass were seperate pieces. The card slid in behind the plexiglass – you wrote on the card, and the plexiglass protected the card from weather and sprinklers.
On the new version of the card, the plexiglass and the card are a single unit. Now you write directly on the plexiglass instead of the card. There are several benefits to this.
- This gives us several new options for writing instruments. The old card was limited to wet erase markers, which are not that common. By writing on the plexiglass, you can now use wet erase, dry erase, grease pencil, even a Sharpie.
- Dry erase markers, although they easily wipe up with a touch, are surprisingly durable in the wet. They don’t run in the rain or if they get hit by sprinklers.
- A Sharpie can be used. To remove Sharpie pens, we suggest using Goof Off: Heavy Duty Spot Remover & Degreaser or Krud Kutter Graffiti Remover that come in wipes or squirt bottles (do not use the aerosol cans). These are readily available at stores such as Home Depot and Lowes. Do not use Xylene.
- If in the event, the plexiglass does eventually become dirty or scratched, you can now cheaply and easily replace the plexiglass instead of having to replace your logo’ed aluminum card.
- Because we’re no longer writing on the card, we can now make it any color – no more white cards only!
This is our ‘standard’ option that is used for Longest/Straightest Drive Contests. This is your custom logo on the card and both the card and the holster can be powder coated any color. This is a great addition to any tournament kit, and an exceptional value at $75.00/each!
5. We can take your design to the next level. Special requests like additional text cut into the card, multi-layer logos, additional color backplates, etc. can all be designed and accommodated. Contact us for pricing on these truly custom pieces.
Don’t forget that A-frame KP signs make a great pair with your proximity markers, and as we said in our last post, we’ve also designed new carrying and storage options for both the tee announcement signs and the proxies.
