Thanks to Colin Crabb and his team at Bridport based Vertiworks, The Catch restaurant has a glazed balustrade perfectly in keeping with all that surrounds it. Metamark Etch Effect vinyl was used for the application of etch effect graphics.
The Vertiworks team was supplied with the design and set about cutting the fish-themed elements of the mural-like etched vista. Filleting, or rather weeding, the designs was an exercise in micro-surgery needed to retain the myriad detail. Time passed and eventually the complex job was done.
Application got a bit of a helping hand because the glass was delivered to Vertiworks premises and the relative positions of all the elements could be reconciled. Having Metamark’s MetaScape Adhesive helped too in ensuring no bubbles. About 14 sheets of substantial glass were involved in the effort so everyone at Vertiworks expended some energy in getting the job done. This is real glass, not lighter acrylic. Once installed, the big effect achieved is obvious to anyone who sees it.
