  1. sp300 print head

    where are you at in KY?
  2. Buying new Printer..WHICH ONE?!!

    You wont be unhappy with your Epson, We have just purchased and installed our 2nd one here, and our old Mimaki sits idle unless we have a banner to print, and the HP 360 is tarped up and just sitting in the install bay. (anybody who loves latex printers want to buy one for a great price?) The...
  3. What kind of vinyl is that?

    Only way I could think of getting close is with printing a mixture of light black and white together onto clear. You'd never be able to do anything close with frosted as there is no way to leave minuscule areas of "clear".
  4. Contour cutting Glass Adhere?

    What plotter? For some materials on the sprocket fed plotter you have to do multi-cut at lighter pressure to achieve good results. However, a friction fed plotter would never be able to do well with multi-cut.
  5. Fellers is too Funny.

    I wish we had another distributor closer to us. We have had an unbelievable amount of issues with Fellers here, but no other distributor is close enough for same-day order pickup/delivery.
  6. Handpainted font?

    Brittanic Bold is kind of close.
  7. Cutting down stickers

    We have one of these; it is WONDERFUL for making straight cuts. http://go-foster.com/products/cutterstrimmers/precisioncutterbars/evolutione2series/
  8. Large run on Decals

    You're gonna need to give out more info; expected lifespan, surface or material required, printed, contour cut, laminated, etc??? Doesn't sound like an extremely large order to me.
  9. Reputable Ink Supplier?

    When we bought ours, every vendor told me that ONLY the vendor who sold you the HP was able to sell you ink for it; any other vendor trying to sell ink to you for that printer would lose their HP sales contract if they sold you ink... So, we had to stick with the company that sold us ours. Have...
  10. How do you deal with clients that want their files

    Give them their logo files free of charge. If they want anything else tell them that to transfer them off-site that they are subject to a storage fee or a retrieval and transfer fee. You are only storing their old files as a convenience to yourself; they have never requested or paid for this...
  11. Anyone try out Affinity Designer for Windows

    I have it downloaded, but haven't installed it yet. Too many paying jobs currently to play around in potential software...
  12. Contract regarding PHYSICAL Printed Proofs?

    On any large print order for a new client ($5-10k or more) we do physical color proofs before we begin production. We print off 2 copies of the proof and have them approve one, we keep the other and post it on the wall in the production area for reference. Then if anyone notices color issues...
  13. Need some help with a few issues using illustrator and flexi with gerber edge

    If you like setting up your Edge prints in Illustrator I have found it to be VERY helpful to set up layers in your document for each Gerber foil used.
  14. Corner Rounder question

    Remember: ANY time you cut 3M Diamond Grade you have to use edge-seal around the cut edges, or they will discolor.
  15. Best Printer for Full Print Wraps

    Actually, because the latex doesn't bite into/affect the vinyl like the solvent does, it is like installing un-printed laminated white vinyl. If that makes sense.
  16. Edge classic (truion) problem

    What is the black button? A reset switch/breaker?
  17. Wrap a tanker

    We've never been scared of these with the torch (yeah being a new tanker doesn't hurt) even though some of them look like they might have already "tested them out" so to speak. The ones our guys here are scared of are the aircraft refueling trucks at the local airport...
  18. Best Printer for Full Print Wraps

    Customer was in an accident, bringing it in for repair, the wrap was printed around 2 months ago.
  19. 3M Envision Print Wrap Film 480Cv3 is it really Controltac?

    It is probably the new formulation, which is really "micro-encapsulated" bubbles of adhesive which are burst after pressure is applied. Not the adhesive you're probably used to...
