So for a bit of an update, I tried cleaning the sheet with various solvents, alcohol, acetone and lacquer cleaner, with no real improvement. Then I tried switching to another vinyl. I thought using a high tack vinyl would give me the best results, but turns out my standard Arlon 4600LX stuck...

We are cutting some letters for a client's indoor lobby and Im coming across an issue hopefully someone here can chime in on. We printed the letters onto GF 201 High Tack vinyl, laminated and applied it to a sheet of 0.5" thick black PVC, the letters routed fune, however the vinyl faces can be...

I've never had a legit client ask if I accept credit cards in the first sentence of an email introduction before, do what you will with that info.

My experience with reverse mounted vinyl on acrylic is that the vinyl will eventually pull away from the acrylic where the tape/cleat is and leave a horrible looking bubble. The best way around this is to direct print on the acrylic.

by spec 10, do you mean division 10? things like ADA signs, directories, wayfinding etc? We do quite a bit of it and it is very time consuming, I haven't found a way to streamline it, as you said it moves at a snails pace until you get the approval then it's needed yesterday! Possibly start a...

It was explained to me that when dealing with hanging signs that swing, the heavier the better, less movement in the wind.

GF220 semi-rigid film

We got a large regular client because the company they used previously set in place a $500 minimum order, they order $30,000 -40,000 in gemini plaques and engraved recognition pieces a year, but one time they had a small order that didn't meet the minimum and the previous supplier wouldn't waive...

Yes we laminated it with a standard 3 mil gloss laminate

I thought Texas was the land of huge beautiful houses on large lots for dirt cheap! I always got jealous when watching house hunters and they did an episode in Texas and there were 6 bedroom houses on 5 acres selling for $250,000. Here in Southern Ontario houses are selling in hours for...

Gemini will sell you laser cut to shape acrylic sign blanks from any of their standard acrylic sheet stock.

same as the building they are being mounted to I would think...

Our rolls roller is OK at laminating, I wouldn't call it good. it's nice if your roll to roll machine is loaded with Gloss, and you have a print less than 8 feet that needs matte to not have to unload and re-web the laminator, however i've found that you have a ton more dust issues with the...

We have had a rolls roller for about 8 years now and it's been really good for us. I don;t understand the hate for the bridge over the roller, I've never found it gets in the way, and I think it adds some rigidity to the unit. Also, no flatbed applicator table will replace a roll to roll...

We have the same printer, what you are looking to do is not possible with a print. If you need a opaque black for a backlit application, you must use a cut vinyl made for that, even standard black vinyl is not opaque when backlit.

Who grommets an aluminum sign? Like someone else said, offer them a small discount and watch how fast they take it and run.

I've never had that before, send it back to Grimco.

Where's that Chinese aluminum guy who used to spam the forums when you need him!

Just got off the phone with my Grimco Tech, he spoke to Summa and they advised him to swap out the USB Hub, but as aparat said he already did that with no joy. I'm starting to get fed up with summa on this one, they seem to want to just swap parts out one at a time until magically something...
