  1. Grimco garage sale

    In case anyone is interested, Grimco is having a 75% off garage sale right now. Not my vendor of choice, but you might find some good bargains there. https://www.grimco.com/Info/Clearance
  2. Interior Wall Mural material

    I'm leaning towards GF 226 or Orajet 3268. They're both 6 mil, and I feel more comfortable working with 6 mil rather than 3 mil. Seems folks are happy with the GF, does anyone have a personal opinion about Orajet?
  3. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    I have a feeling that the sign sat around onsite for 2 weeks, then they finally installed it and peeled the transfer tape off then. I also have a feeling that they went back with a high pressure sprayer and tried to clean it up before grand opening. Then after a couple days of hot hot sun...
  4. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Wow, lots of folks hate Avery here. Good to know, I'll steer clear of it in the future. Some of you said that it looks like it was pressure washed. That would be my guess as well, since it's at a carwash and the install crew probably wanted to clean up the sign. I'm sure it loosened the...
  5. Major Issues with HP Latex 310

    Oh girl, I'm sorry you've had all those issues. I bought a 310 in September 2015, and it's been running pretty smoothly since then (looking for wood to knock on). I'm a low-run in-house print shop so it doesn't get a whole lot of use..only 17,750 ml of ink used so far. I agree with other, HP...
  6. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Thanks everyone for your help :)
  7. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Surface was cleaned with alcohol and dried before applying, I did that myself before it went out of the shop. It's possible it got too warm sitting around on site before they installed the sign.
  8. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Its Avery Dennison calendared HP700 opaque series
  9. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Does anyone know why this would have happened? (see attached pic) The cut vinyl prices are peeling off only after 1 month. According to customer, the transfer tape stayed over the prices for 2 weeks once they received it until they pulled it off right before grand opening. The sign is a 2nd...
  10. Interior Wall Mural material

    Thanks, but I'm going for cheap. Also, I've never done a wet install that large..That's a bit intimidating and beyond my comfort zone. Thanks for the idea tho.
  11. Interior Wall Mural material

    oh, so you're the one who bought up all the optima optisolve.....grrrr... lol. I tried to jump on all the old advantage materials the week the announcement went out, but Grimco told me they didn't have any more supply left..I think they lied. I think the automark and the phototex are a bit too...
  12. Interior Wall Mural material

    I wanted to get opinions on what the best material to use for an interior wall mural. This is just for our own business location, we're not selling or installing these for our customers, so I can do some trial and error here.... I have a 30' wide X 10' tall wall that I want to get a printed...
  13. Flexi is eating my hard drive

    Hehe, funny. I still have all the original design files from 20 years back, so I think I'm safe only saving RIP files for the past 2 years. I can always re-rip.
  14. Flexi is eating my hard drive

    Yes, it looks like you are correct. After printing it "holds" the file, as well as holding the cutting file, I see that in the default job settings now. Thanks for bringing that to my attention, I can change it to "delete" or else I'll have to dump the files every few months. Thank you. d...
  15. Flexi is eating my hard drive

    I noticed my hard drive was filling up and found that Flexi was the culprit. I have over 102GB of files stored in a FlexiJobs folder. They're broken into 2 sub folders: Graphtec and HP. I have a TON of task schedule/task object and pdf files (pdfs are the bulk of the 102GB). I have never...

  19. HP Announce R Series Flatbed Latex printer

    eek, a bit steep for me. Only have a budget of 200K for flatbed and cutter. Oh well, I knew it was to good to be true.
  20. HP Announce R Series Flatbed Latex printer

    I too was at the ISA show, was nice to meet you guys (digging the new woodgrain vinyl btw). I'm in the market for a 4X8 flatbed printer and a cutter. Maybe I need to hold out for HP to roll out theirs. If y'all are overwhelmed by it, I'll heed your advice. I've had a HP310latex for 2 years now...
