Nope, cause we can't see it.

?????? You want to make a Manatee effective?

Getting the customer to send images first if you have that option as well is key I agree. As far a the templates with body moldings and the different types, I'm not really run into that problem. Everywhere I've gone to get my templates have multiple versions to take into account for the that...

Personally not a huge fan of using just a photo as a template. Using them as a reference to go along with a vector template sure. But as the template alone not really as I have yet to meet a person that understands how to take a picture and with the lenses on most camera phones they always tend...

Do you have the option of using a manual registration? I know that with Flexi you can choose to use cross hairs or 'bomb site' and manually set up the registration marks. We do this all the time have don't have any issues.

Also check you heat setting. Sometimes applying a little heat can get the adhesives to flow and even out.

We print on reflective all the time with our 570's I've printed on 3m's HIP, DG, EG. I would stay away from the 7930 series and the 3290 for but their 680 series works great.

You probably don't want to do this. But if you do... Go slow and make sure you have people to help. You're going to want to buy enough to do the vehicle twice as you will mess up. Chrome can be difficult. Get the right tools for the job, a wet squeegee is probably going to be your best bet so...

For us to touch a vehicle is $90 an hour. Removal, cleaning, wrapping, anything...

Wow, do you know if there was any type of power surge or did someone trip over a cable? Have you done any updating of anything?

Saw this, thought it was pretty cool. Handheld printer

It could also be a static issue. Even if you wipe it down, as the material is going through the machine it could be (probably is) building up a static charge that is attracting dust and messing with the ink. I had a similar issue with my Mimaki. Get a humidifier and set it up close to the...

We do most of the traffic signs up here and it doesn't matter what you like or don't like to use. All DOT signs have very specific guidelines that you must follow. They will say in the spec sheet. Most call for 3M as it's been submitted for testing and has been the industry standard forever...

Was just looking at Hexis films. They have a red metallic HX20RGRB that looks pretty close from the images.

have you checked out Hexis, Avery, Orafol, Arlon, 3M. Each have their own takes on reds and you might be able to find one really close.

Also don't forget that if you are going to use laminate that might also change the color. For example if you're going to use 3m 8518 it has a slight yellowish tint to it.

Why not print it? There are many many printable images that you can tile to fit any size.

Pricing from a decade a go is probably not going to be valid. It's all going to be based on your cost and overhead. So the first thing I would look at doing is seeing what your nearest long term competitors are charging and see if you can at least match it. Don't do come in and say well they...
