"i sent you a hi-res pdf. i don't understand why you are having a problem." mostly get that from brokers/sales people but even better when you get that from a file sent by a designer????????????? wth
quoting a job to attach a sign or banner to a steel storage container. it's stationary and won't be moving.
figured i could just rivet aluminum panels or rivet a banner to the side. any recommendations on a heavy duty riveter? don't want to spend money on something that going to break after a...
i have an xc-540 that we've had 14 or 15 yrs and i use 3rd party inks in that. they are a nazdar brand. nazdar makes ink, that's what they do so i trust them. (we have been buying silk screen ink from them for over 30 yrs that i know of.) we also have an xc-640, lej 640 and the truvis all of...
something that size shouldn't be too bad but if it's on the cold side of the thermometer be gentle the colder the easier the rip. i have done installs as low as 30 degrees (not recommended but it can be done). i also do mostly dry installs myself but which ever way you are comfortable and works...
while we are on the subject.... here's a good in shop experience for your back. opening and loading a new roll of 63" x 167' scrim banner material.
that does wonders for your back...haha...ouch
i do know stretches you can do to relive the pain from the pinched nerve but can't really explain them. try searching on youtube. and yoga is great. but as already mentioned ice and heat are great and some Advil. also now that you have an issue it will be good to stretch or do yoga on a regular...
i am aware of the requirements for commercial vehicles but the customer has a personal vehicle (non-commercial and he wants to put lettering for his business on there so was asking if anyone knew of any laws on that. i know there are companies that pay you to have your car wrapped with their...
i know it probably differs from state to state but anyone know what if any restrictions there are with having lettering/graphics for a business on a non-commercial vehicle?
hi Bradley,
don't remember exactly but the lettering was SWEAT approx 20" high lettering bold font, like a helv heavy and i think it was around 2500 give or take 100 it was a few years ago
thanks for the info.
i was going to slit the back in a few places. i generally do that with most larger installs. just easier to work with. i have no problem with perf normally but usually do vehicle windows or small store windows
have a couple of store windows to install printed window perf.
35" x 57" and 53" x 125". this is not your normal lam or not lam perf debate.
i usually don't lam unless some weird circumstances cause me to. possibly like this.
perf can be a little tricky sometimes stretching or ripping tough to...
just need to use the correct material. we would use arlon pdf8000 has a more aggressive adhesive for something like this wall but there are others. fellers has a whole page in their catalog for rough textured walls
noticing a change over the past few years. everyone is in a huge hurry for their jobs. not sure if they are waiting till the last minute to order stuff or just want to be a pain in my ass...haha
I've been in the printing business since 1990 and when i started we had a 3-4 week lead time with...
maybe a liquid lam would help but probably not. uv inks don't really bite in the the material like solvant ink. uv just sits on top and is dried by the lights so a decal on top will pretty much always pull the ink off. when we screen coro signs we need to use a special ink that will bite to the...
i will also use a 2x4 at the bottom to hold the sign as well as wrap a rope around it to help hold it to the rails. you get one strong wind and bye bye sign panel.
+1 for Direct Sign Wholesale and i have also experienced my customer not going with the job after we marked it up but better to lose that job than give it away and not make any money or have headaches later on. used them for a couple jobs and the work is good. didn't have any issue with the...
