    Here is a weird one... don't even know my name or company name.... is it not obvious it is BS? Dear business owner, A criminal complaint has been filled against your company. Your company is being accused of trying to commit tax evasion schemes. The full text of the complaint file (...
  2. Foil question (trying to prevent waste)

    Thanks Fred, I never knew that about the conserve foil feature.... I don't use my Edge that much anymore for 2 color jobs, but good to know that the printer was not the problem.
  3. Got my new Contain Mat

    No I did not prepare it other than giving it a good cleaning. I watched a PPG video about concrete and all the possibilities of failure and figured that I was not going to go through all the extra expense and time commitment if it wasn't 100% going to work. The mat will solve the problem and...
  4. Got my new Contain Mat

    This one has some form of banner material with a pebbled other banner material somehow fused together.... I considered just using banner, but for $200.00, may as well just buy it ready made.

  7. Vinyl remover chemicals

    Who works outside in -15 degrees? insane!!! tell them to wait till spring...
  8. Vinyl remover chemicals

    I ordered a quart of the reflective off and the vinyl off...I will keep you posted once I get a chance to try it out. The one thing I was told is that it seems to work best with a lot of heat around it, so I figure with a steamer it should perform better than not having it, but we will see.

    Here is a link to the company that makes it http://www.crystaltek.us.com/crystaltek-vinyl-off.htm
  10. Vinyl remover chemicals

    It might be great but it clearly states it is an adhesive remover...not a vinyl remover...
  11. Vinyl remover chemicals

    as I posted earlier this week...it took me 1.5 hours to remove a mylar decal 12" x 18".... heat gun, steamer, vinyl zapper all basically failed to get this decal off. In the end I had to use the Zapper and it was brutally slow. I suspect the decal may have been applied before the paint on...
  12. removal of mylar decals....pure hell

    Maybe, but it is an adhesive remover and you have to be careful with them. I have a can of zip adhesive remover and I think it is basically oven cleaner and would never spray it anywhere near a vehicle. The stuff actually starts bubbling away when it hits the surface.... works great on raw...
  13. removal of mylar decals....pure hell

    I almost completely used a zapper wheel on 1 12" x 18" . bad enough you cant see it, and then repeated times of running rapid remover and then finding more and more areas that were not removed. I have it at a point where I am just putting the new lettering on and I don't give a $%^% if there...
  14. removal of mylar decals....pure hell

    I need to know outside of heat gun, steamer, vinyl zapper...just how to remove mylar decals. I do work on a fleet of cabs and many of them are coming over from a different company and we have to remove these 12" x 18" clear decals... I thought I had seen it all, but these are by far the worse...
  15. My machine is shocking me. literally..

    I hate getting shocks.... My laminator is the worse for that....have seen blue sparks jumping up at me.... After dealing with backing paper, which is where the static seems to come from I usually make a fist and bang my hand on any metal piece on the laminator... Yes the shock still comes...
  16. Happy New Year!

    Happy New Years to all... Hoping 2015 is a great year!!!:smile:
  17. Radiant Heat in Shop

    I put a tube heater in 2 years ago and have seen significant savings as to the older gas fan type heater. $325.00 is pretty good...In winter I remember just the gas bill was around $500 in the cold months, and that doesn't include the hydro running the fan. Run them both and get a good even...
  18. Nothing like a clean shop!

    I think the proper way to do a floor is to do some form of acid etching first which helps the paint stick better. I have no time or patience for that so we basically bought an epoxy garage floor paint from Lowes. 2 coats and it looks great and really helps me with reflecting light better while...
  19. Does Flexi have a limited amount of cut shapes it can send out at one time?

    It stops dead right where the last cut is, and yes there is an error port something message in prod manager. Very rare that I would run such a large cut job, but because the decals were so small, each run was less than 50" x 54".
