What is your definition of "long-term"?
enamel paint is going to be the longest options
vehicle clear coat
or a good cast lamination, the longest I know of / see regularly is done with Oracal 290G. this is going 10 years
we have had issues when the RIP has updates.
how the program reads old files is an issue. when we talked to Summa (using WinPlot) it is an issue with being backward compatible.
