  1. Covering large windows solid black?

    Put a strip of double-sided tape along the top and bottom of all windows (on the inside obviously) and stretch a piece of black banner between those.
  2. Sticking vinyl to a staircase?

    I assume it will be a "permanent" application; if so I would use some Arlon DFP8000 for this project or the Avery (air release) high tack vinyl if you are not that experienced with install.
  3. Wrapping a Ford F350 Dually

    Make sure your swear jar has some room in it!
  4. Gold Medal Foil

    We use Silver Medal a lot on truck doors and it hols up long term, but we laminate with 3M 8519 laminate. I would assume a clear coat would do just fine also.
  5. How to Enlarge shutterstock images for large wall murals

    I also 2nd OnOne perfect Resize, it "should" make these usable images. I have used ones that bad before when the customer provided them.
  6. Is there an action or style to give me this wrinkled effect in photoshop?

    I'm pretty sure you're gonna have to hand draw that.
  7. Firetruck Font???

    Any other ideas? Kabel seems to be close and Kaapeli is close also, but no exact match yet...
  8. Firetruck Font???

    I haven't ever seen a font with "E"s like this... have you?
  9. Funny Serif

    The "f" has a funny little part where it takes a turn towards the top, but the rest of the letters look pretty close to Cheltenham.
  10. Funny Serif

    I keep finding very similar fonts, but can't nail this one down. Have to match existing signs with new signs.
  11. if I were to buy a new Mimaki, how do I deal with the old files?

    Keep using your same RIP if you can, We run Onyx RIP here for all of our printers. (HP, Mimaki, Epson)
  12. Mimaki CG-160fx Plotter trouble

    Get a magnifying glass or loupe and look at your blades. I am willing to bet that both are bad. We go through a lot of vinyl here and sometimes the Mimaki plotters blades just randomly break. You shouldn't need your blade to be sticking out that far, but we normally run on 100 setting on the...
  13. looking for knife that can cut backing paper.

    Yes, definitely the YelloTools one with the teflon pads.
  14. gerber embosstrack48

    You can put the software/dongles on ebay, as they are worth decent change to same money off an upgrade to newer gerber software. The hardware.... might be good for parts. Gerbers run forever and users are VERY faithful so someone may need them.

    PP Board? (lol) http://www.ptonline.com/products/hollow-pp-board-is-one-inch-thick
  16. Construction zone sign material

    Alumacore?
  17. Corel Gurus

    Can you use a rounded dashed-line stroke following the center of the line, and then do a shape merge (pathfinder tool in Illustrator) and only keep the overlapping areas? (Sorry, I have never used Corel, but I know this is how I would do it in Illustrator)
  18. New Ford Aluminum Trucks - No Magnets - Options?????

    We have used some of the "non-adhesive" sticky vinyl before, and while it works great for smooth surfaces, I would not think that it would work well for a moving vehicle; especially one where the driver is installing it their self.
  19. Boat Wrapping problem with cleaning boat.

    Would Ghost Off work the same way it does on old box trucks in this instance?
  20. How to find service for a Mimaki in Charlotte, NC

    I know a great local independent Mimaki tech. Not sure if he travels as far south as you are, but he MIGHT. I will PM you.
