    frank fellers lets his ego take over by putting his face all over his catalog 3m does it by taking all our money. we have been buying direct from 3M for 20+ years and they do this every year. sometimes twice a year and they don't care. they are so big and offer so many products that are needed...

  7. Any ideas.............??

    maybe try laminating a small piece of vinyl to the sign and try pulling it up to see how the ink reacts. if it does seem to hold up ok then as an extra precaution can you make the new graphics bigger than the panel and wrap it over the edges so there is less chance of the edges lifting. one...
  8. Buying a new printer...Which one?
