We used to use GBC DuraMount for stuff like this, VHB is easier and sticks better to odd surfaces.

I've noticed that edge curling on the MC too, I've just been flipping the stuff over until I need it. As far as install, I haven't seen any noticeable difference. I hear removal is where people aren't liking the MC.

The generic HP one-view profile works well with maybe a couple minor tweaks. I used it to profile the stuff a few years ago, didn't need much adjustment and we've been running it since then, only switching to 3M recently. We used the campaign for a bit but found the performance version a bit...

We went through a few iterations, measuring your equipment and mocking up a layout in illustrator is helpful before moving stuff around. Mainly think about workflow and what makes the most sense in terms of efficiency and comfort. Avoid wasted space, think about future additions in equipment or...

It was a development sign in a large field. Wind storm took it out, there were others in the area in other fields on different angles that were fine.

We use ACM for these, add 2x4 horizontal braces between the posts to attach the top and bottom of your panels to. We've only really had an issue when a washer was missed on a panel corner. One pole is a bit of a concern, what are they using to put this thing together? I've seen 2 4x4s snap...

I've done it a couple times, nothing huge though. Anything over 12 feet wide I would get a second person. It's a little tricky keeping straight but not terribly bad, it helps if you can cut the backing in the center to make a hinge so you can keep rolling it as you go on either side to help keep...

It's not too bad. If you have the service manual follow the steps to remove the carriage and the belt comes out with it. Then just remove the belt where it's attached to the carriage and put in the new one. Just make note of which orientation the belt is attached, it needs to go on a certain way...

By outlines do you mean cutout or drawn onto the template? If drawn I'd be tempted to tape the letters onto the template, flip it over and drill into both just a bit to mark the letters. Take letters off and add studs where you drilled and then it will match your template.

These badboys are great: Stainless steel screw covers, acts as a washer and looks good. Just need to find some that fit the screws you are using.

I would just order one in black and scan it. Charge a little more to cover the cost, think they're around $20. But if you're charging for the time to make one, it should more than cover it.

Try printing gutter colour bars, I've seen it fix this issue before.

I would run a scan axis check which will show faulty areas in your strip, I think it's in the image quality menu. I get my parts from Grimco.

There are special vinyls made for aircrafts, 3M won't sell it unless you're certified for aircraft wraps. I think Orafol makes one as well. I've also been told the aircraft will have to be recertified by the FAA. I know people who have done it but they were never fully comfortable with the...

One of our guys had over 10k in tools stolen out of his truck one night, he worked as a carpenter for years and some of that stuff was well over 20 years old. It sucks, my philosophy is anything that isn't inside our locked building, it's considered open. But then again, if one was inclined...

We've been using a fair bit of Avery MPI 2923 EZ lately since problems with IJ35. I'm liking it even more than the 35, no markings on liner.

Usually around 4-5k is when problems start that aren't head strike related. I switched the Y-M head recently at 8.4k.

I wear tight neoprene gloves for big removals, work for me. Or you can hire a guitarist to do removals :p

It's a good class, they cover a bunch of stuff outside of car wrapping. From my experience you get out of it what you put in. My advice would be to make sure you have a firm grasp on all your other vinyl installs, wall graphics, floor, premasked, etc. The more time you can spend on the car wrap...
