  1. Shipping Large Masked Decals

    We save a few large tubes that banner comes in and roll loosely in those. Many of them we ship flat though, depending on how big they are. Either HD cardboard or Coroplast, sandwiching the graphics. And I missed what you meant about masking vertically? I don't think it matters which way you...
  2. IJ180 CV3 - Issues & Comparable Vinyls

    I have issues once in a while with cast vinyl sticking to powder coated aluminum. It's hit or miss. Haven't ever laid 180 V3 on any though, we always are laying cut white or black on powder coated. I would suspect anything that's removable/repositionable will be harder to keep down. But I bet...
  3. Eco-sol printable that will stick to foam?

    Try General Formulations 201-HTAP
  4. Started at a new shop recently....

    No, while usually sarcastic, I was serious. Now that I look at it closer I think I see the seam you mentioned (but it looks like reflection)....But still, I've done and seen enough wraps to detect one vs paint vs plasti-dip....and the glare/reflections on this car looks like paint. Maybe I don't...
  5. Max print/cut width on S2 T160

    Something isn't right then. I just tried and with OPOS and barcode I can get it to 51.7" max. This is with Flexi RIP though, maybe Onyx adds some extra space.
  6. Need Help Best Sign Vinyl for Kiss Cutting - 3M x Avery x Arlon x Metamark

    You say "kiss cut"... are you doing a true kiss cut or do you just mean contour cutting on your plotter?
  7. Need Help Vertical Banding on Siser ColorPrint PU with a HP L26500 Latex Printer

    Your feed rate is off then if it bands at high pass. That stuff is thin so you need to increase the feed rate. Looked at the photos just now....looks like your heat settings are too high as well....lots of markings going on there.
  8. Manual settings for Flexi

    Stick with 720x720 but go with smaller passes....like 6 pass for down and dirty and 10 or 12 pass for more precise work and solid colors. (* I don't know what pass settings you can set on the Mutoh....these numbers for reference)
  9. Need Help where can I buy small pieces of Avery Supreme...?

    Good luck getting the color you want....anywhere. Supply is less and less every day for cut vinyl. Unless it's black, white, blue, and other very basic colors. I just hunted for some Avery SC 950 in Real Red....no one has it. Everyone has to drop ship from the mfr., and only full rolls.
  10. Need Help FlexiSIGN How do I add crops to a file?

    Oh we do that anyway....slight bleed AND margin marks (if white background).
  11. Started at a new shop recently....

    I'm calling BS. That's a black car, factory paint
  12. Need Help FlexiSIGN How do I add crops to a file?

    use MARGIN in Flexi RIP. Then you don't cut anything off when you cut one side.
  13. Where to find plastic office id signs for schools

    Well if you don't need braille, and are just putting vinyl on them, just cut your pieces from PVC, or acrylic, or Rowmark, or whatever.
  14. Wrapping a Silver Vehicle

    Be aware that your colors will shift and be muted when printed on clear and applied to ANY color vehicle that isn't white. So that blue you print will look much different once applied to the silver.
  15. Question Glass Apeel profile

    I'm using Glass Adhere profile, which I believe was a direct download on the printer itself.
  16. Discussion I know my answer already, what's yours...........................

    So you suggest he puts up a grey and pink frosted vinyl logo? Uh ok.
  17. Question Aluminum Stand Offs

    Pizzazz Monomounts are nearly all we use....lots of vendors sell them. Easy to install.
  18. What's proper etiquette if a prospect sends you a competitor's proof for pricing?

    Tell them to put away whatever proof they have, and to explain to me what it is they are wanting, and we'll provide a proof based off of that. I don't necessarily care what something else did, as I probably won't like it anyway. If they came in solely to get the same thing looking for cheaper...
  19. Roland RS-640 What is causing this shifting

    You can also double up a pair of those white cotton gloves, soak your fingers in alcohol, then clean as mentioned....same process, just easier without having to jam a long foam brush inside the machine.
  20. Properly Clean Walls

    What kind of wall? Painted drywall? Painted Brick? Stucco? Textured? Many variations of a "wall". Iso alcohol is the normal go to for just about anything, but depending on the surface, it might not be the correct cleaner.
