  1. PERFORATED VINYL can anyone explain the numbers?

    Just to reiterate - DO NOT USE APPLICATION FLUID. Some of us have problems printing on the window perf so for the first time you do this it would be wise to babysit your machine.
  2. Why the color variations?

    In this case I would print some samples and match the orange to my Color Bridge. Usually all the colors won't match on the screen.
  3. Rant Hiring Installers

    It must've been Bill! I took him for $100 per hour but that included "training". He told me the going rate was $800 per wrap for installation. He also said it would take him 3 hours per side. Turns out it only took me, the unexperienced peon that I am, 1.25 hours per side. So, if Gnubler pays...
  4. Hand Painted Vintage Race Cars - very few left

    That's awesome! Until recently I didn't even know engine turn was ever hand painted. It seems like one of the more difficult things to paint!
  5. Ford Explorer Door Handle HELP!

    You are exactly right! I have to say, that video I watched was very helpful. I did it like this and it was much easier than I expected. Yes- pulling that backer paper off at the center hinge was slightly nerve wracking LOL
  6. Cutting weird :rolleyes:

    Check to make sure your blade is tight...this happened to me once. Not sure after that ...
  7. Ford Explorer Door Handle HELP!

    Oscar got them back on in 5 minutes LOL
  8. Ford Explorer Door Handle HELP!

    No worries! It's soooo much easier with them off. My guy Oscar said Fords are the worst. For the next squad I'm keeping them on. This is the first time I've had to turn to the body shop in 5 years so I'd say that's a pretty good record!
  9. Rant Hiring Installers

    I think if you can find someone who you can train, that would be your best bet. You don't go to college to wrap so it's a learned on the job skill which means the pool is slim. You would likely be pulling someone from another shop which means you will need to pay well. I had a horrible...
  10. Ford Explorer Door Handle HELP!

    Thank you!!! I wish I had posted sooner or I would not have removed the handles! It's going in again today to put the passenger side back in. Good thing I know the guys and I won't get a full bill. He has another squad and I'm going to leave the handles on. What a PITA this has become. Live and...
  11. Hand Painted Vintage Race Cars - very few left

    I went to the Elkhart Lake Vintage Night Friday. They have about 120 vintage race cars that line up in the downtown area then they "start their engines" and drive around the town and back out. It's really a cool thing, thousands of people and the ground shakes. Anyway, I touched almost all the...
  12. Ford Explorer Door Handle HELP!

    Thank you DL Signs! I appreciate the encouragement! Now...I still have those other two door handles to put back on...any tips?
  13. Kerry testified before the House Foreign Affairs Oversight and Accountability Subcommittee

    Climate crisis my A$$. John Kerry is a loser but not as much of a loser as Al Gore. I only have respect for anyone crying about the climate if they rely on solar, have a large garden, bicycle or walk, make thier own soaps, etc. NONE OF THEM DO. They tell us what to do but don't do it...
  14. Ford Explorer Door Handle HELP!

    Update! It turns out DL Signs was right all along - I could do it all by myself! So, side one got torn off becuase that moron created panels and I sent some pics to Boudica - she said tear it off and start over. I woke up at 1am and watched an Avery Denison video with Justin Pratt (?). Side two...
  15. Ford Explorer Door Handle HELP!

    Nevermind...had to go to the body shop because my helper unscrewed the screw too far and the nut fell in the door. Spent 1.5 hours there today watching them tear the entire door apart. TGIF!
  16. Printing faded flag for police car

    Thank you! This is basically exactly what I did and it turned out beautifully and only took a little over an hour to get it on (without touch ups). Of course then I spent 1.5 hours at the body shop having them put the handles back on because the loser lost the nut inside the door. My son and I...
  17. Ford Explorer Door Handle HELP!

    Piggly backing off my other post....So, I got the police car 2023 Ford Explorer handles off and I wrapped the side successfully (thank goodness!) now to remove side one and rewrap. I can't get the handles back on from side two!! I watched a video on how to remove but he didn't say how to get...
  18. Printing faded flag for police car

    Well, I ran into a problem with the installer guy. He's good with the squeegee but I left him alone and he cut panels - not good. Have to redoside one today. I'm going to try doing this today as one panel myself with his help becuase I have nobody else so it's do or die today. With this vehicle...
