As soon as I detect that an email conversation, be it design or pricing goes back and forth more than 2 or 3 times, I get on the phone and get the info I need. Many times I will ask 2 or 3 questions to clients and they respond with only one answer leaving the other 2 unanswered.....speaking to...
From your second picture it looks like something has gotten into the middle of the vinyl between the color and the clear on top. Looks just like that moldy look I had. I would think that this roll was defective as the top layer was not adhering properly. I am staying away from reflective...
In the picture it looks like I can actually see the blue of the car through the areas of damage. That's too weird. I have had issues years ago with a brand of reflective that had what looked like mould getting in through the top layer of clear and the colour. I believe that may have been caused...
I agree Scott. I bought a Sabre and if I were just using it to cut down sheets of vinyl it would be great, but for larger substrates, I found that, mine anyways, had an issue with lining up just exactly where it was going to cut. I also found that if the substrate is rather large like a 4 x 6 or...
I think I am going to start using this jetbest ink. Spoke to a fellow sign guy who has been using it for over 4 years with no complaints. I will go for the bulk version. My printer is now 7 years old and I am pretty anal about maintenance so hopefully it works well.
a cheat is a piece of vinyl cut out of both colours or more that all are in the exact same spot for quick laydown without having to measure and line up. You then remove the cheats. I do use magnets to hold the graphic in place before applying tape. Have to be careful as many finishes lately...
all is good.... guy just told me it was painted in their own shop and knows it was not done professionally.... (although it looks good to me) doesn't care, although the glue is stuck in the paint and wont come off......
Regular customer brings me a Ford cargo van......easy job logos on doors and rear.
This logo I use cheats to line it up fast and I used 3m 2 ml vinyl.
Go to take the cheats off and a struggle starts and I can hardly get the vinyl off...breaking in small pieces, so I get out the heat gun...
Not sure what category this falls under.....
I have never understood how I get mailer daemons or whatever they are called when I am replying back to a customers e-mail. What exactly is going on that it bounces back? I usually send it again and it goes through.
I remember years ago someone had mentioned how you go about creating a swatch chart in Flexi so you can print it out... I was pretty sure it was memorized or written down, but I guess not...anyone remember?
Still need to deal with this, but today I got a little scare as I cleaned the heads and I also have a low magenta cartridge which seems to be taking too long to empty. In any case I started printing and only Magenta was produced. I stopped the printer and ran a print test and absolutely no cyan...
It's been about 2 months now that my cyan cap has not held cleaning fluid for a nozzle wash. I clean the capping station every morning and clean the heads every other day. Once a week nozzle wash. I see no issues with cyan print and wonder how dangerous it is to not get this attended to at this...
