Okay thank you, will try both today.

Can anyone tell me what printer issue may be causing this? The ink looks like it's bled beyond it's boundaries. Looks like only an issue with black maybe. Blown head? Wrong setting? Mutoh 1324x Thanks

Okay - BUT... I haven't set a budget... I am looking for software recommendations based on other sign shop experiences. Doesn't sound like you can offer a solution or have experience with sign quoting software. thanks for your help.

A list and a pencil. Do you have a recommendation?

1-3 people. Not sure on mo. budget - currently just looking for the best option.

I'm sure it's here somewhere but I am not coming up with a thread about the best sign shop estimating software. Any recommendations? Thanks

Thank you, Gino. We have a little over 10 years in this field - still babies by comparison to some sign shops. You are right - we are the professionals. Even though I do my best to research any new project we take on that we have limited familiarity with, this one got missed. I failed to think...

Thanks RJS

Thanks, Gino. I agree with you. This was the first time we'd ever had an issue. BUT it's also the first time with the heavy black, laminate, and then annealed glass. It was an unfortunate rookie mistake. I'm just looking to not make it again.

Yeah, I thought the same - we didn't see any sort of stress issue when we installed - except a noted slight bow in the frame at the top. It's also an old window - But yes, the last one to touch it. I'm thinking a liability waiver is a good idea - they are adamant that they want the laminate.

Do you know if any of them were tempered glass?

They are going to switch to tempered. Which I understand can withstand the vinyl application better. I'm still not sold on adding the laminate though. Still feels risky.

Insurance is (of course) asking for information on the perforated material used. It's true Idaho isn't as hot maybe as say Florida - but the heat is different - more intense maybe. Not sure how to explain it. It's a different heat - than I've experienced in other areas of the country. Thanks Canuck

Here's another part of this - They are switching to tempered glass and want to have the same application. I don't find myself in a similar situation. Any info on tempered glass and printed/laminated perf. Oh, and if you wonder why we'd laminate - the customer wants the glossy look and is...

Good Morning - Part one: We recently installed perforated and laminated vinyl on a local window. The window was a double pane. The image area was printed in rich black with approx 90% coverage. The balance was white or a light blue. The windows are southern exposure. All factors I've learned...
