  5. Removal 4 yr old Oracal

    I have a 4year old wrap to remove. The vinyl was 3951ra. I don't know why I let myself get talked into using oracal but I did. Now it's time to remove and rewrap two vans and it's not removing like 3M. Does anyone have any advice besides lighting it on fire and calling the fire department...
  6. laminate tinting prints yellow

    I notice it with 3M 8519. I allways assumed the yellow tint was from a UV blocking additive similar to the yellow shooting glasses?
  7. Air bubble after install...

    "I've also found in areas where I have no choice but to bridge, I always lay down a little bit of 3M 94 Primer and let it sit." Oracal says not to use 3M Primer 94 with their vinyl and from my experience don't.

  10. Do You Use PostScript Type 1 Fonts?

    I used to use them exclusively. When you cut larger characters you could see that typically the Type 1's were cleaner with less flaws. I used Adobe Type Manager in Win 95, then Win XP 32 bit added Type 1 support (left it out in XP 64 bit). Then it disappeard in Win 7 so we converted all our...

    Static build up can cause overspray like that. Our Roland does that on the magenta head in the winter when printing banners. When our enconder strip went bad the image was unrecognizable and the image would shift from the left to right side.

    We charge shop rate for installers plus $.52 per mile for the vehicle. We live in a large metropolitan area and only charge for trips over an hour.

    Go to home depot or lowes and look at chem metal samples in the countertop department. It is thin and probably should be laminated it to something ridgid. Bright and reflective is difficult to make readable because the color changes based on the lighting and environment and it will scratch...

    Heat and rollepro all edges and seams at a minimum. If your worried or like to sleep at night bring a stapler and staple the perimeter or, banner tape the perimeter. Even high tack vinyl can trouble sticking to painted barricades in ideal weather conditions. (poor or wrong paint, bad paint...
  16. Space between multi-copies?

    It's been awhile since I used versaworks, but if I remember right, there was a setting for a margin around eps files (applied when you imported it). It kept the software from trimming off a sliver of the graphic or the outside half of a thickline...
