  1. Frost/ Etch - Eco Solvent Printable Media

    I've printed on a few brands of etch film with my Roland without any issues, none of them were marked as being printable, but they all work. The only think to look out for is if you order the material "by the yard" from your supplier you may have to wipe it down with ISO alcohol before printing...

  3. Floor Graphic Materials

    We do quite a few floor decals here, I've always just used a decent intermediate vinyl such as IJ40 or 3651 and laminated with a good floor laminate. Having said that, keep away from cheap floor laminates, we bought some house brand stuff from a supplier here that was very cheap, used it on a...

  6. yellow banner material for printing

    Why not just apply black cut vinyl if you are only needing one colour, or just print the whole thing on white banner, seems like you are over complicating this.

  17. Versaworks won't print after windows 10 install

    this is why you never upgrade to the newest OS on a production machine, Learned that lesson with a previous version of windows, had to wipe the HDD and reinstall the previous version. we still run windows XP on some machines here because if it aint broke, don't fix it.
  18. the laziness of customers and their expectations

    We just had a client order some decals for their cottage owners association, they send me the entire email chain between the members (all 50 emails) for some reason, even though there was no information in any of these emails for me, mostly just gossip. One of the comments made me laugh though...

    looks like the vista system to me
  20. Bending poly metal / dibond

    we use the same cutter, there are a few things I have found 1. make sure you use good material, most of the house brand ACM has such thin aluminum that it can't be bent without breaking. 2. you can adjust the depth of cut with the v grove bit, I usually adjust it so it cuts 99.9% of the way...
