i too am a fan of the 3m gold but i do have some various lidco squeegees of longer lengths. also have a couple geek wraps squeegees for wraps or delicate stuff

sorry if this sounds dumb but did you check with your tech or roland? if it's the same system maybe you can just buy that part and install it

so if you print a backlit panel direct to the substrate say with a UV flatbed you need to flood with white so when it lights up the light will be consistent through the whole panel? can you also use a translucent white vinyl mounted over the printing?

if it is real and you are not comfortable doing it then sub it out and make a little extra cash. worst case at least you threw a number at it and they know you tried. i was a helper on a fence job once and it's not complicated but if you don't know all the little tricks it could be a pain in the...

we have had that before but with bigger jobs and it's usually a large customer or the government (we get a lot of government jobs) there are some branches of the military/gov that we do jobs for and they have a guy that comes in to inspect the jobs. he comes in for an hour or two and inspects...

what is the size? i am pretty sure gemini does have a min text height for cut lettering but that's probably the way to go. looks really nice when it's done. you could use the layered bebond for the stripes and oval but i would use the acrylic for the lettering and glue it to the oval. also i...

if it's something they want to be permanent then use a matte vinyl or matte lam. if they want to be able to write and re-use then use a dry erase lam.

we have rolands and love them but that doesn't mean they are the best. you should check out a few and see which works best for you. i would agree you want to get a 54" printer because you can always buy smaller material but if you get a smaller printer in a few months you will be kicking your...

we have a roland LEJ . we use sprayway-SW-955 anti static eliminator. works pretty good. the only thing with the static sprays you have to test it to make sure it doesn't effect how your ink sticks to the boards. also you may have to wipe them down after they print. mostly that is just with...

i use oracal 3651 and 3651RA for decals. we use oracal 651 for cut vinyl lettering and we use 3751RA for wraps can say we ever had any major problems with any of them. we do use avery and 3m materials as well but oracal is a good product. with any of the vinyls they all have similar products you...

we just cut it with a razor knife and pull it off. usually takes like 3-5 slices depending on how much is on there.

print/lam/cut and done

do you have a vendor that can slit the rolls down? this way you'll have a roll of 3" and a roll of 1" then just cut 9' lengths. if not you have to rig up a 9' straight edge. check carpet store try to get a 10' or 12' metal edging

if frank sells fellers will he still put out his portfolio of selfies aka the catalog every year...haha no problem with grimco just hope they don't buy up everyone i use like to have a little price comparison. also with fellers not sure if it's my area or my reps but we have been doing business...

i have had this happen on rare occasions with our xc don't know what caused it. not sure if it was the machine, the rip or the file. not a common thing it would just pop up every once in a while. if you run smaller batches it may help so if the first 5 or 6 rows cut good then just reduce the...

oh yeah along with all my ruby lith color separations

when i first started if our computer was down i had to use this to make text. shoot each letter one at a time on 35mm film and then go in the dark room and develop it.

could be the print head and need an ink renewal (run some cleaning fluid through to help clean the head) but more than likely its static we have a similar issue with our roland lej. we use an anti-static spray that helps cut it down sprayway, SW-955 anti-static eliminator spray. we also use it...

there is a way to convert your solvent printer to print films for silk screening but you have to change the ink over (i forgot who does it and what ink they use) you will never print an opaque film for silk screening out of a normal solvent printer

check out ryonet. we use an epson 4880 black max printer to make our silk screen films Blackmax Output Printers | ScreenPrinting.com by Ryonet
