That's why you get photos of the actual vehicle, do the layout on the template, and adjust your art according to the photos.

1" overlaps are what we do, and always, ALWAYS cut in to the graphic a good 1/16" so no white is left anywhere. You'll end up around 7/8" actual overlap if done right.

Well, you could MAKE some....if you're a sign shop.

I assume any place that prints business cards. We just use a local printer that does that stuff.

The grey Spraymaster is all we we use mostly. Good for alcohol, rapid remover, water, etc. Not the best for Rapid Tac, as we prefer a finer misting sprayer. For that we use a couple like this - can be found at Beauty Supply stores.

Flexi will do this. Select your item and hit File>Job Statisitics. Shows the perimeter, area, etc.

We did this for a customer, but they had very textured walls. We had them bring in a painter, sand down all the walls and primer them. Then went over them with dry erase lam on top of wall vinyl. As far as I know it worked well.

I use Grimco's "Briteline Rollup" film. 8 mil Polyester. no curl, prints great. I think scrim or any other PVC type banner looks bad in a retractable.....and the thickness (10 oz or more) can cause rollup issues as well as extra weight.

Printing could be set up before you leave for the day and let run for a couple hours, ready to lam the next morning. You shouldn't put off something like this just because of paying customers. Now the wrapping itself....that's another topic. If you don't have anyone else there, you probably...

Hmm....haven't seen that email. Although I am aware they will be shutting it down in the near future. We are switching over to Corebridge by the year's end. Kind of the "new kid on the block", most all Signarama's are on it or are switching to it now.

AND the first H is upside down...LMAO. All crooked...what a horrible sign job.

Some people like to do things the hard way.

SO easy. Open in Photoshop. Save as PSD. Import in Flexi. Apply Contour Cut to whatever width of white you want showing. But before that, redesign the logo.

First thing I noticed too. REEEAAAL nice on white letters.

We use DLL for certain things too. Their quality is hit or miss....we had a job last week with 2 PMS colors, which usually they handle well. These 2 were a huge problem for them, for some reason. Got the job in and one color was way off, but customer luckily loved it. Gemini quality is always...

If you are getting the acrylics flame polished, remember DO NOT apply alcohol to them to clean. They WILL crack around the edges.

I just don't get trying to use an old, old version in the first place, especially if you are an actual shop. Maybe being an individual just needing to cut a few decals now and then. My opinion would be pony up and get AT LEAST 10.5 if not newer. I don't think that version has any support anymore...

Is that a constant temperature or just a max? I'd say cast with cast lam should hold up.

6MM PVC should be more than adequate. Cuts great on a table or panel saw.

I just use the same thing I use for any other vinyl. Optically clear would be fine (cast).
