  1. Phone Solicitation for Wrap Templates!? Yuck!

    Was one of them named Terrin? I've gotten those same calls. They are insulted when you don't think you should immediately whip out your card and spend hundreds of dollars you didn't plan on spending on something you weren't looking for at that very moment...just because they think you should...
  2. Alumalite Squeegee's...anyone?

    Soo...you have no experience whatsoever with Alumalite Squeegee's. I've got a "Big Squeegee" already. Wasn't part of the question but thanks for the reply.
  3. Roland, 3-year outdoor durability without lamination

    LOL the stickers are on the Lids (outside) of the trash can curbies and aren't really in contact with the contents. How would make only yellow disappear faster than 3 years unlaminated?
  4. Roland, 3-year outdoor durability without lamination

    Haven't seen the dropout as fast. Several things we've done I see everyday that get full UV are only starting to fade and I still see light yellow...after 2 years. I just wish they wouldn't be allowed to make the claim if it simply isn't true.
  5. Alumalite Squeegee's...anyone?

    Anyone want to share their good or bad experiences with Alumalite Squeegees? Namely for installing LARGE vertical flat panels (walls)?
  6. Roland, 3-year outdoor durability without lamination

    We switched to 3rd party inks BECAUSE they didn't stand behind that claim when it failed. Yellow literally disappeared in less than 18 months outdoor unlaminated on hundreds of decals placed on trash cans. A few other non-laminated short term decals as well. (all outdoors) We laminate everything...
  7. Convicted on all charges, still collecting paycheck?

    So admitting to murdering American Troops in hopes to protect our enemy...doesn't earn you immediate death? What the crap is war if not that very same thing?
  8. Perf vinyl on huge windows, overlap ?

    $15 a sft. is insanely high for that scale job.
  9. Company truck wrap design - Tear it apart!

    Whoah whoah whoah.....you mean to tell me 401graphics .COM was taken sooo you just used .NET ? (very small on your layout) People are going to go to the .com site instead many times...and that site sucks. But at least it's not just a Facebook page. Do yourself a favor and get a real website with...
  10. Jimmy John's

    Jimmy Johns is only several seconds faster because you aren't standing there telling them what type of bread you want or type of cheese, heated or toasted or what veggies or sauces you want. Both are pretty much the same price. Quality of JJ's Roast Beef is better, but tuna from both places...
  11. Made the 6pm news again....

    Watched it. I love how they show clips of kids frantically evacuating schools from horrific events along with this story of a father who went wandering around his child's school well after school hours to find his child. Apparently most staff and students were already gone for the day. He...
  12. Making business cards at your shop?

    Easiest money we make is business cards. $75 for 1,000. Most customers are starting out and need them or want new ones to match their new logo or wrap design etc. Since we already have their logo and contact info, it takes 10 minutes or less to layout the business card and upload it. 4OVER...
  13. designing questions

    I would use a forum like signs101.com or something and search using keywords using keywords like (help with ICC profiles for flexi with a mutoh) etc. Also maybe using a search engine like www.google.com and use keywords like (stock art or stock images) etc. But...that's just me.
  14. How long to design and setup to print?

    Simple: You are doing one of the following... A) Paying WAY more for designers/installers than they are worth, B) Not charging enough for the end product, C) Both A & B. If their talents are worth what you pay them, it should show in your pricing. Their work is what people are seeing that...

    Convection
  18. Roland Tech Please.

    +1 Get the pressure outta the dampers. The membrane should look like there's negative pressure in the damper. Don't forget the paper towels :)
  19. Weight of printed 180C with 8519 laminate - no liner

    LOL I had the same request 4 years ago. I told him there's no way to know exactly until after it's on. Didn't get the job. I was glad.
  20. Lifespans of Vinyl & Laminate

    If the average expected lifespan of Laminate is 2-4 years shorter than that of it's paired vinyl, does that "technically" render the installed graphic to the life of the shortest lifespan element, that being the laminate? Just curious how you guys (& gals) treat such a quandary.
