Display Care & Repair — Common Questions
Can you repair a trade show display you did not sell me?
Yes. We service and source replacement parts for most major display systems regardless of where they were originally purchased, including Abex, Featherlite, Nimlok, Nomadic, and Skyline hardware.
How should I store a display between shows?
Clean and fully dry, in its case, in a climate-controlled space off the floor. Roll rigid graphic panels rather than folding them, and store fabric graphics loosely folded or rolled. Most display damage happens in storage and transit, not at the show itself.
How do I clean fabric display graphics?
Dye-sublimated fabric graphics can generally be machine washed cold and hung to dry — never tumble dried. For rigid laminated panels, wipe with a soft damp cloth and a mild cleaner; avoid solvents, which can cloud or lift the laminate.
Is it worth repairing an older display or should I replace it?
If the frame is sound, repair is almost always the better economics — hardware outlasts graphics by years, and a fresh graphic on an existing frame costs a fraction of a new system. Replacement makes sense when the frame itself is bent or fatigued, or when your booth size has changed. Send us photos and we will tell you honestly which situation you are in.
