Global garage offers it and I haven’t used them for Head cleaning but they have a good reputation in the resale market (we bought our Zund flatbed through them) and I wouldn’t think they’d offer it if they weren’t at least fairly good at it.

we haven't really had any issues either. we vary our lam based on availability but have used GF, Arlon, one of the Oracal's (can't remember) without any issues. We rarely laminate it when we're doing building windows though as it seems to hold up without the lam pretty well and it's usually...

Btw dtf is awesome but make sure you order and sample a lot of transfers first. It’s hand feel isn’t much better than a solvent transfer in a lot of cases so it’s mainly the elimination of weeding that you save on. And a big design on a shirt with dtf isn’t nearly as soft as most people want...

my understanding is that most of the native dtf rips work best with png files. It’s same thing is you run any dtg system, nearly everything is png which weird coming from sign background. We convert everything from vector to png for our dtf orders. How are the reviews on the 724? We were...

you need to ask for a smooth lay-flat banner. They are usually used for store window type displays. I usually get mine from Calcomp in CA but I can't find it on their website so here's a link to Grimco. I'd probably order the 15oz. In my experience this stuff is never as strong as the...

unfortunately nothing printed on the Roland is likely going to fold well. Like others said you need to roll it unless you want creases. What you're likely looking for is dye sublimated fabric as you can fold that and mail it but that's a completely different print setup.

we probably work/adjust/improve on 75% of the jobs we take but most of our clients are referral or long standing customers (we don’t have much of a website so if they got our contact it was likely given to them by another customer). We charge accordingly and do our best to upsell add ons. We...

we have the Leister Hemtek ST and if you're looking at welders I'd say that this is by far your best option unless you have the $$$ and volume to higher end $7-10+ plus machines. Whatever you do do NOT buy one of the Supply 55/US Cutter banner welders. If you want one I'll sell you a used one...

There are some other really great threads on this. We're short on space in our shop (square footage costs way to much in Hawaii...) and we've gone down a lot of routes. -we have a 4.5x9ft plywood table made out of an amazon kit with 2 lower shelves. Worked well but also didn't as we'd really...

I doubt the dryer will affect the reflective material but if it's not solvent compatible the ink will either just bead up on it or else not last very long. Some materials may have to be UV/latex printed. That being said we've never had any issues printing solvent (Roland, mimaki and epson) on...

I'm guessing that it comes down to your tolerance for the fumes. If you do want to install a scrubber there are some really good threads on it but you'd have to search. We were debating one for a while when we were running oem ink in our Mimaki (we switched to Bordeaux and the fumes went way...

I don't have an icolor and haven't really heard a lot of good things about toner based sublimation systems but I do have a lot of dye sub experience. I can tell you 100% that it's either a profile or printer issue as long as you can rule out one thing. I really doubt that it's your time/temp...

Thats the way that we do it too. Print in reverse on clear. Laminate white vinyl over it (sometimes we use 6 mil if it needs more opacity). If you put in registration marks just be sure not to cover them when you add the white vinyl. Many decals actually come out decent just printing on the...

This is a real bummer that this happened and I think everyone agrees that it's stressful how quickly money gets thrown around on techs and print heads. That being said I have to second everyone else in that Solventinkjet has always been top notch to work with. We've purchased a number of heads...

Hi Mark, how does Retack handle fairly fresh low VOC paint? Are sample rolls available? We've even been using general formulations motomark 4mil with high tack for some of our customers who like to paint way to close to when they want us to wrap the wall. It works great even on the slickest...

we used to buy generic chips from lavaink. They seemed more dependable than when we bought them straight from vendors in China just because sometimes when we bought them direct we'd end up getting chips for the wrong inkset.

just wanted to chime in that you'll see a lot of variability on these tents. We sell a ton of them and import the frames by the container and then have the tent tops printed and drop shipped to us as orders come in. Just make sure you're comparing apples to apples when looking at tents. A lot...

I may be wrong but at least on our Lef-20 some of the older inks were hazmat as they were corrosive. The newer inks are not so they are easier ship. The older inks adhered better to certain things like glass though and you didn't have to use adhesion promoter. We were using the older but...

I agree onyx is a mess to figure out. We got thrive with our s60600 last year and the tech who installed it new nothing about onyx or even the printer and we've been struggling ever since.
