  1. Rapid Tac

    I used it many years ago when it first came out but then thought...why am I paying for something can make for almost nothing.... I then got to the point where I apply just about everything dry unless they are fairly large and layered. I actually went back to rapid tac when I was doing a...
  2. Who Sells Corrogated With The Flutes Going Along The 48"?

    I was asked by someone who is going to resell it to their client, so they simply want the corrugated replaced. I can tell they don't want to spend much on this as a stand like that is cheap as hell to begin with.
  3. Who Sells Corrogated With The Flutes Going Along The 48"?

    I am only trying to replicate what was done. the client brought in the piece and I think the reason corrugated was used was to support the table it goes with as a small display used for golf tournaments and such. After trying to source the product I called the customer and told her that...
  4. Transfer Tape Not Sticking

    For years I used medium tack and then started seeing the same issue where most was ok but some areas would remain on the backing paper and then get mangled. I switched to high tack about 2 years ago and have found that on the odd occasion it may happen and I blame it on poor adhesive in certain...
  5. Why Do Banners Get Reffered By Oz Vs Mil?

    I thought it was a simple enough question...but you guys have all gone mental:D
  6. Who Sells Corrogated With The Flutes Going Along The 48"?

    I ask this as a customer brought me in the front panel for a display table. It was made of corrugated plastic and then bent to fit around the unit. i thought...yes this is a piece of cake...then realized that the corrogated needed to be vertical to be able to bend. the piece is 80" x 35.5". I...
  7. Why Do Banners Get Reffered By Oz Vs Mil?

    ...so when a supplier sells me retractable banner material and says that it is 10 oz that is fine, but when they say it is 9mil I have no idea what that means as far as ounces. The reason I ask is that certain banner stands work better with a lighter weight material
  8. Why Do Banners Get Reffered By Oz Vs Mil?

    I find this strange that when researching retractable banner material that they are described by weight or by thickness...Is there a corelation between the 2? How do you convert mil(s) to Ounces? or are they 2 completely different references.
  9. What Do You Do With Your Vinyl Cut Offs, Scraps.

    I use some of it for removing dog fur around the house and especially in the car. For the most part it all goes in the garbage. For big digital screwups I save it until my garbage is full and then super stack the bin with everything that I hate throwing out...it almost feels painless
  10. 3m 220 Vinyl And Wet Application

    I am very experienced at applying vinyl and had a truck this weekend that had about a 22" x 8' graphic in 1 colour to apply to a Savanah. I had to work alone and had no help so I decided that for the main graphic being that large that I would use Rapid Tac to do the application. I squeegeed...
  11. New Edge Settings For Reflective?

    I have an edge le and just ran reflective a few weeks ago and did not notice any problems... Maybe I should just run it the old way. I hope the film does not flake off out in the field!!!
  12. New Edge Settings For Reflective?

    I normally never purchase a 50 yard roll of Gerber 3M reflective...usually 10 or 20 yards, so the distributor just cuts it off a roll. Today I needed 70 yards and when I picked it up the full roll has a piece of paper with an attention!! New print settings for 280i. Says that you need to use...
  13. A New Market

    found this on my Facebook feed this morning...pretty cool, but I can just imagine how they look when someone without experience installs them

  17. Snap-off Knives

    I use the heavy duty Olfa knives for cutting coro and pvc and also scoring composite aluminum. Never have an issue although you do have to snap the blades fairly frequently when cutting magnetic material and styrene of all things. I find the regular Olfa knives seem to cut under the straight...
