I printed a large graphic for a backlit cabinet on Orajet 3850 translucent. Should I go with Oraguard 290 cast or 290GF optically clear? I see the manufacturer recommends either for the 3850. I don't have the optically clear in stock and don't want to order it for one job. I have the regular 290...

Interesting, I was kind of wondering about that. I signed up for Manta before and it was the same deal where I got lots of calls of people trying to sell me stuff. Thought that Dex might be different but sounds like it's not. I'm super busy right now with work but thought this might help when I...

So DexMedia has offered me an online and print ad for $99 a month(12 month contract) that brings traffic to your website and keeps track of them so you know the stats. The package deal is normally $400 a month but they are doing a "special" for new clients. Wondering if anyone here has used them...

My printer is a latex, not sure if that matters. Where do you get Clear Shield from? I think the place I used to work used this on there canvas prints. It was a white pasty liquid that they would roll on. Looked horrible at first but would always dry nice and clean.

That's impressive, especially on a trailer lasting that long! I have used the ClearJet spray on several graphics and outdoor signs but it's only been a few years since I've started using it. I never knew that stuff was that long lasting. So sounds like the best way to go, based on what you and...

They sure did and I just removed one of the cracked graphics earlier today and under that was evidence of the old hand painted sign. So they've been using this same sign panel since about 1992 when they opened. I know 10 years is probably a stretch but I want to use the best material to make it...

I have a sign I'm re-doing for a client that's got probably 15 year old or more printed vinyl on it and obviously you can guess at this point it's pretty faded. One side is worse than the other and it cracked pretty bad as it gets much more sun exposure. We are re-using the .080 aluminum since...

Hi, I'm selling my HP Latex 42" L25500. It's a great reliable printer that's got low usage on it. I'm getting the exact same model just in a larger size. I'm asking $3500 which is a more than fair price for a Latex large format printer. If you are familiar with these machines, you know how...

Yeah they're heavy duty steel beams. I'm thinking about turning down the installation since everything with the job has been a pain. There are cars that park under that banner for one, the poles are up about 18' and they won't budget to rent a scissor lift, I've already discounted the first...

Ha ha, man I hear you on that. Happens to me every single time I get ready to head out of town too. Today I had 3 rushes and I'm heading down to the Ozarks tomorrow for 4 days. Got a whole pile of work waiting when I get back too. It's a great marketing plan!

It would be great to see a picture of your banner installed this way so I can show my client. Do you have something you could send? Thanks

That sounds like it would work pretty well with the webbing and ratcheting. I'm almost to the point of turning this job down just because of how the client has been. They are however a pretty large company so it would be to my advantage to keep them happy. I'll have to look that place up and...

So this banner was for a one day event, it's a 3'x18' double-sided 13oz banner(2 printed pieces hemmed and grommeted together). The problem was the weight of course causing it to sag in the middle. The solution was a steel cable run at the top and then zip ties to straighten it out. The client...

Thanks all, looks like Peachtree is the winner!

I'm looking for a company that provides the custom stucco and brick monument signs. I've installed these in the past when I was working for another sign company but never knew the vendor name. It would be something like this example here. I want something custom for the client instead of a plain...

Ok great, thanks for the info!

Does anyone have a good referral for digital white ink printing? I need a job completed that requires white printed on re-moveable clear vinyl and trying to find reseller pricing. Thanks

no help on this one?? anyone?

I'm looking to buy some of this for a small project that a customer needs and they insist on this since it can be applied dry. The actual film I need is JT5796MBF and I'm looking to buy 5 yards of it at the most. The minimum I could find was 54"x82' from Fellers. Anyone know where I can get this...
