  1. 2016 Cadillac Escalade - Avery Satin Metallic Purple

    I was thinking the exact same thing.
  2. Need Help Source for small adhesive lettering

    Check with a local trophy shop. They might have something that is a match or would be able to get something close.
  3. Feedback on Layout

    My only question is do they own the website you're using? Because it's significantly different from what they have listed.
  4. Anyone know this one?

    It's Emerald. I run Gerber software, so if you need text set, let me know. I can send you an EPS.
  5. What percent do you markup off the shelf parts & retail items on average?

    Double the cost. And when quoting a full job (design, sign, install), I tack on an extra 12% to the sign cost to make up for miscellaneous things like tape and squeegees and blades etc.
  6. Suggestions Retractable Banner W/ Hard Case

    Signs365 has them. I haven't tried the retractable ones yet, but the others are pretty nice. If I have a client that wants something more high end, I go to Creative Banner/Showdown Displays. I've purchased a bunch of retractables over the years from them and it's always a high quality...
  7. Question Who has the Whitest High performance Reflective vinyl???

    If white is required, I would print white onto the reflective with my Edge but at 85 or 90%. It still allows the reflective to show through but would give a white appearance.
  8. Gerber Edge FX software and printing

    What billct2 said, but also make sure that you have the cuts/prints set correctly. It sucks to send something to print and then realize you forgot to set a cut.
  9. Which is the best option for a backlit white acrylic sign?

    Did a sign here a couple years back. White background with blue lettering. Got a call from the client a few days after install that the city contacted them that there was too much white on the sign. They have a percentage that they allow so that the signs aren't too bright. Crazy, right?
  10. Template for Mounting A Bunch of Laser Cut Letters

    Same here if the letters are standing off, but I believe these letters are being mounted with double sided tape. If the background is printed, I would inline the letters 1/16" and print the letters into the design. If painted surface, paint mask, but only cut the bottom 3/4" of the letters and...
  11. Printing on static cling problems

    I'm not familiar with inkjet printing, but this looks like the ink is not bonding with the static cling. Is the static compatible with the type of ink you're using? Does the ink print fine on other materials?
  12. Need Help Any ideas on how to make this??

    Just checked my Edge fonts, and didn't have anything similar.
  13. Cutting substrate with mounted prints

    Apply transfer tape to the vinyl. Apply vinyl to substrate. DO NOT remove tape. Route on CNC. Remove tape. I would suggest doing a wet app and let it sit a day or two before routing. I do this all the time on all sorts of substrates. Never had any issues.
  14. Poll / Question..Training your staff.. preferences

    As an employee, I would not expect to have to purchase my own license for software in order to "practice" at home. Now, have I purchased my own license of some software, of course, but it's been for personal use. Our shop software is over three grand for full blown edition. Designer edition...
  15. Font Help Please

    Looks close to Jersey M54
  16. Weird print issue

    That's weird. Because if the preview is correct, I would think it's in the printer settings. Have you double checked them all? Not that I think this would apply, but what version do you have? I know the Student version doesn't allow printing in color. Maybe there's something like that going...
  17. Weird print issue

    does it look correct in the print preview?
  18. Looking for New Intermediate Vinyl

    How long is the client expecting the vinyl to last? Why kind of fleet vehicles? Box trucks? Vans? Does it need to be print/cut or can it just be cut graphics?
