One of my first lettering jobs I did was for an old American Oil service station. It had old metal can signs on the front of the building that I was to change for the new owner. I think I was about 17 at the time & was eager to do the job. As I was getting started, I set the opened quart of OneShot bright red on the top of the can sign. I started penciling in my letters with a stabilo, & as I had to "nudge" my ladder a little to the right to finish a letter, down came the can, right on the top of my head. I climbed down the ladder & went inside to get something to clean up the mess and gave the owner a near heart attack as he thought I fell off the ladder & it was blood all over me. I remember the mineral spirits burning my underarms as I cleaned myself up. It must be somnething about red!
