  1. who sells a yellow vinyl that can be used on concrete in parking garages?

    Is there actually a product out there that can do this? I don't want to buy the 3M printable concrete vinyl but a pre colored roll of yellow.... anybody?
  2. Useless Graphtec FC8600 won't find registration marks

    I have a Summa d140 that is very finicky and over 8 years I have learnt how to deal with it. I actually found that if I use an eraser on the registration marks it dulls them down and the opus reader can pick them up. Another strange thing I found with this plotter is that I could sit...
  3. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    The media was a General Formualtions clear digital 203 I think.... What I found out is that it has a water based adhesive.... If there is a next time I will run them all through the laminator with a sled. The piece I needed to replace I did just that and the image went down beautifully. It...
  4. What materials can I find at Home Depot to apply vinyl to?

    Vinyl sticks to any flat smooth non porous surface...enough said!!!
  5. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    so as we can see suppliers don't know what they are selling... I would have gone with that had they mentioned it, but cold application was not an issue for this job... figures.....
  6. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    Naturally we got the call from the contractor that there were these blotches in the prints....so I spent 4 hours Sunday morning working on site in the new wing of the hospital. The images look fantastic on the walls but yes as you look close you can detect what I can only call some form of...
  7. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    I considered doing it this way but was fearful of the glass possibly chipping while going through and possible bubbles at the start point....Maybe I should have at least tried one to see how bad it could get.
  8. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    Maybe I worded it wrong..... We printed reverse on clear digital vinyl, we then laminated white over the print so that when applied you can see it..... The problem area is between the clear digital print and the glass. I have seen this happen many times before on plexi glass...usually dark...
  9. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    I have known about this pretty much since being in this business but have never really got a straight forward answer. We printed about 30 odd panels on clear in reverse and then laminated white behind them to be applied to a series of glass panels for a hospital. We used rapid tack to apply...

  12. Floor graphics for a dance floor

    A customer calling me to ask if I did such a thing for his daughters wedding. . I asked how large he wants it and he said 27' x 52' I told him for 1 event this would cost a pretty penny. I basically gave him the number of a wholesaler I use as I want no part of this. What do you...

    Your correct...but I was solo and extremely busy...never had a chance..... I will get it done... he knows what he said and I am sure when he left he was thankful that I would take it as he booked the driver off for the day...Not sure when he thinks I am doing the second one....
  15. Some customers never change

    I have this customer that has a fleet of trucks we used to do. have not heard from them in a couple of years, but do work for one of the brothers other companies.... He told me that they no longer buy trucks for the workers and they use their own, so they don't bother lettering them up...
  16. LEJ-640 FT UV Flatbed problems. Ending my silence

    I think you did the right thing posting an issue like this on this Forum which will be seen by thousands of sign and print people. If Roland knows there is a problem and is diddling around while you pay interest on a $80,000 loan or lease... then for heavens sake swap out the machine with a...
