The only time that I ruler trim transfer masked graphics is when I'm selling the vinyl without installing and the customer picks up as-is.
I don't want a finished good to look sloppy.
Pay up and charge accordingly. Let your customers know that you use and provide an excellent product.
I know it's painful relative to calendared. My last Arlon SLX wrap kit ran like $1,400.
Insist that it be mounted on rigid substrate. Then sell them a better solution.
Too often I've attempted to follow customers wants instead of approaching the project with my expertise.
Suggest a preferable solution and they will follow your lead.
UV print them second surface. You'll need to source the print work and they will need to prep your files for their system.
Do not waste time attempting these without a white ink config.

Ink usage is more in line with equipment payment of power costs.
Half cut is a feature which scores the perforated tabs. I don't like that and leave it at 1gf. Use a 60 degree blade set your perf pressure and do your testing.
