  1. Stainless tank trailer vs vinyl.

    Mosh, Yeah I know what a POUNCE wheel is, and I'm talking about stainless trailers. Ever try getting paint to stick to that? Don't assume since I don't have a thousand posts that I have no experience. Try 25 years.
  2. Looking for a substrate...

    I agree with Mosh. Shouldn't warp too badly. If your customer insists on wood then he needs to deal with wood's inherent properties. The frame should help keep it straight. I'd support it with at least three attachment points so it doesn't bow in the middle when hanging.

When the tech was here to set it up, we got it printing well on oracal and I've left it there since. Only had it a month. After a rocky start with a PC-12 two years ago, I was a bit...
  7. SP-300 profiles

    Hi! First post here. I'm new to printing (but not to signmaking) and I need help. I just purchased a used machine and so far I love it! I would like to know what settings others have success with printing heat transfer (from specialty materials). Some colors are running (I've turned the heat...
