  1. These people give signs a bad name

    Oh I read it, and it sounds like the consensus here is pretty even on how your story goes and your business tactics. Keep up the good work.
  2. These people give signs a bad name

    Texas Sign.....Weren't you the one a while back in a post who said they do a set of magnetics for like $35 bucks all day long because they are "temporary," and people like me are nuts for trying to get paid for them? Now here you are on your hands and knees begging this restaurant owner to let...

  5. Issues with 3m 180mc

    We have no issues printing any colors on Avery whatsoever. Everything looks awesome on 1105. In fact it is so good you can not tell the film is printed versus a colored film. Issue we have with Avery films is the laminate has a very poor warranty. The film has a good warranty but the laminate...
  6. Issues with 3m 180mc

    Just an FYI. The 3M175 is not a cure all solution. If you prefer 3M like us (with eco-solvent printing) it is the best option available since the changes to the 3M materials imo. In the sample below is a print I ran just an hour ago. Avery 1105 on the top and 3M 175 on the bottom. (Disregard the...
  7. Issues with 3m 180mc

    We had it before 3M even let the word out about it. We also had it 3 weeks before some of my other suppliers had it. Kinda funny when they walk in and are all excited to unveil a new product to you which you had before they did. lol It has been out for a couple months now. You may want to check...

  12. Issues with 3m 180mc

    It is more than likely the 3M film. We had the same issues with banding and color problems. We purchased 10 rolls from 3 different suppliers of 180 and the older series materials as well thinking the 180 may just be a bad lot. No changes to the prints with all three different series of 3M...
  13. 10yr Old Wrap Removal Suggestions

    We have been down this same road many times. We contacted the company in the video as well and they were not willing to share any secrets on what they were using. They did however offer to give an estimate for the removal.
  14. Rant Crazy Prices

    You can negotiate better pricing with your Fellers sales rep if you have some buying power. They are not our main supplier yet they do give us the best pricing of all our vendors. The reason they are not our main vendor is the simple fact that I don't mind paying a few extra dollars to be able...
  15. Need Help Roland color inconsistency issue - help please

    Long consistent strips of color are difficult for the Roland. We have been down this same path many times with solids and gradients. The best results I have had is printing on Avery films, although we use 3M exclusively. We just had a tech here a couple weeks ago to cure a similar issue. He was...
  16. What would you do....?

    So what is your price to letter two doors of a vehicle?
  17. What would you do....?

    Since we are on the subject of magnetics..... can someone explain to me why they are always cheaper than putting the vinyl graphics right on the door? I see this all the time! Customers come in and ask for a price on a set of magnetics. I give them the price and then I get the response...
  18. Need Help Starting new creative adventure (project)

    You can not buy Sign Lettering paint with lead in it anymore. Those days are long gone Bud. We are stuck with what is left in the cans and that is poor coverage, and lack of durability. That is just the way it is..... however.... it is much better for your health!! Many of the Old School Sign...
  19. Versa Camm Printer not printing colour

    Start with replacing your top cap. I would say the head is not sealing during the cleanings and is losing suction. Without a good suction they do not flush ink correctly..... thus the lack of ink in your waste bottle.
