  1. Cutting Excess Vinyl Off Banner

    O my.... I think my feelings just got hurt. Sigh. Bob doesn't like my forum slang, oh what AM I to do? :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn: :popcorn:
  2. UV Ink for corplast

    Feel free, I got a few pairs of gloves I keep at the shop and we can have ourselves a lil tussle ;) And when I'm done with the fun I'll even show ya the local watering hole. Seriously though, 32bantumfighter. You wanna call me a jerk even though I showed you a link to a company that not only...
  3. UV Ink for corplast

    Last I checked you can't order ink 630 PM on a Friday. How about you grow a lil thicker skin before you come back on the big ole' interweb. Giddyup cowboy, go get 'em.
  4. Cutting Excess Vinyl Off Banner

    Aw so I guess I'll have to throw away the couple we have here. I guess all these years we've cutting everything crooked and wavy. Think of all those thousands of banners out there with horrible edges that somehow our customers never noticed. Sigh. . . . . . . . Dude, you need to tone down...
  5. UV Ink for corplast

    1. Ever try callinggggggggggggg them???? typical business practice, no? 2. silkscreensupplies.com, aka Ryonet. Best in the biz
  6. Customer changes mind after approving proof and receiving banner.

    Is the kerning bad? Eh, yah. But they approved it, and it's not the end of the world. 98% of the people walking in their shop everyday won't notice it. Maybe cut them a 25% discount on reprinting it. Free? I see no reason for it. Just cut em a discount, see what they say, collect and in the...
  7. Adobe's new pricing strategy

    Betchya Macromedia thought that too. I don't think Adobe is going anywhere, but I bet a dollar in a donut hole that they'll take a hit for this. I'll see if I can buy a lil Corel stock, just in case I'm right ;)
  8. Adobe's new pricing strategy

    Then comes the day when the Mercedes driver gets passed by some Mazda driver at 120MPH. And before he figures out what happens, he's outta sight. Mark my words, this is only going to help Corel sales. I respect both Adobe and Corels products, I choose Corel for lower price, ease of use...
  9. How do 3rd party inks ruin your printer?

    It's the game of russian roullete, of trying to find the QUALITY non-oem inks that's simply not worth the risks. I tried Lava inks, read great reviews on them, almost lost my business as my printer broke, thousands of dollars in orders were returned, and while I tried to repair that printer, I...
  10. How do 3rd party inks ruin your printer?

    Can't tell you the scientific term for it and how the whole chemical process worked, but 3rd party inks ruined my head, made all my ink lines gummy and ruined my capping station. Like the ink was too "hot".
  11. Should I use primer? 970 RA

    Whole thing flat black? I'd scuff and lay down some serious adhesion promoter and primer, lay down some House of Kolor black with a flex agent added, and then lay down some matte clear coat. Seeing as how I retired my guns some time ago though, I'd just not take the job. Reason being this is...
  12. Should I use primer? 970 RA

    That is for both. Wrapping a sled in 970, well, let's just say I would never do it and I've done more sleds than I can count.
  13. Should I use primer? 970 RA

    Absolutely not. the primer is too much for the 970RA and will cause it to tear. Ask me how I know (30' strip of flat black). Just take your time, tuck as you go and use heat. And good freaking luck wrapping plastic, I'm not entirely convinced it can be pulled off....
  14. Want to dull a shiny vinyl to matte

    +1 for clearshield matte. Pretty sure I've seen it, never used it. But makes the most sense.
  15. yeah, what if?

    The latter, thanks bud haha. That's my sexy signal
  16. yeah, what if?

    Say what? Hand caught in the laminator? You don't like my hand or something? lol
  17. yeah, what if?

    Can't live life like it's a party when you have responsibilities. I live my life how it is now in a good balance between having fun, and keeping a watchful eye on how I handle my future. Living TRULY like there's no tomorrow, with caution to the wind, isn't good for saving up for the future lol...
  18. yeah, what if?

    Hey, the Mayans were some smart cookies. But just because their rock ran out at 2012, doesn't mean the worlds gonna end. So, I plan on enjoying that weekend ;) BUT, just hypothetically, if I knew the world was gonna end on that day. Man.... I'd take a blonde, brunette, asian and cute lil Latino...
  19. Wanting to buy a printer!!!

    Aw.... so you aren't a sign shop, you just have a racecar? Or...? Please introduce yourself. With that said, absolutely not. You can't just buy a wf1100 and be off and wrapping. It is not meant to print on vinyl, it is decent of t-shirts tranfers and the like. But that's it. It absolutely...
  20. Wanting to buy a printer!!!

    Let me be the first to say. Not going to happen. 6-8K is CHEAP!!! DIRT cheap. 500-1000, wrong business man. Your luck you'll end up with an encad chroma that will make you want to pull your hair out. Even buying a 4 year old Sp300 for around $6K is taking a risk, as you have no idea what...
