  1. Wrapping a desk

    Is it just the front that's getting wrapped? Doesn't look like it has any big curves, any decent calendered vinyl should do just fine, if abrasion is a concern, try laminating with a textured floor laminate, it will hold up to just about anything!
  2. Funny email I got today

    Just got this email from a customer we just started dealing with a few months ago, they insisted on getting net 30 terms, so far they are 2 months overdue As part of our AS9100 Certification the Quality Management System require to make quarterly reviews on our Suppliers Delivery Performance.

  3. Interesting Fine Art Papers for photography printing

    One word of advise, RUN! printing for photographers is akin to beating your head against a wall, nothing is ever correct and everything is your fault.
  4. Printed and Cut Wall Decals

    +3 for Avery 2611, of all the vinyl based wall medias, it's the best hands down, we've printed tons of it and installed it 2-3 years ago in public places, not a single complaint, I walk by it all the time, looks just as good as the day I installed it.
  5. Permanent Matte Vinyl ?

    I've never seen a great selection of matte vinyl, some suppliers are starting to come out with matte wrap films now as it seems to be the trend right now. I would also vote for using a matte laminate on regular vinyl then cut the decal. tell the client the material they want is special...

  8. What is the goofiest thing a customer has said to/requested of you?

    You got one of those too eh? We have one customer who only orders about 20 little engraved plates for us a year, every year they send us all this NAFTA paperwork we have to fill out, takes about 30 minutes of our time. When i questoned them about it, they told me they had to have every one of...
  9. How do I get the average Joe to understand about high quality artwork?!!!!!

  10. 4'x6' Diamond (Orajet 3651) on rivet-less trailer - wet or dry?

    Use a tape hinge down the middle, apply the left side, that the right, shouldn't take more than 20 minutes, and if you take care, there shouldn't be any bubbles either
  11. CorelDraw X7

    I'll hold off untill I hear more reviews, X6 was a nightmare for us, so we ended up reverting back to X5
  12. Should USCUtter accept Bitcoin payments?

    I think that might be a stretch, From what i can tell they are the cornerstone of the cheap "calvin peeing" decal industry.
  13. customer question?

    what type of vinyl does he spec? if it's a very expensive vinyl, I can kind of see where you are coming from, however I think it looks very unprofessional to make a client pay for a roll of material for their jobs, reminds me of when I was trying to get a gas line put in my backyard for a BBQ...
  14. customer question?

    I would have no issues stocking a roll of 60" vinyl for a customer, i wouldn't even make them pay for bringing it in. if you have a 64" printer, you should really have a roll of 60" vinyl on hand. the price difference between a roll of 54" and a roll of 60" is peanuts. What vinyl do you...
  15. Window Vinyl, Sign Permits and Customers Service

    Our City doesn't even know who is responsible for issuing sign permits, every time I call to ask a question, I get bounced between 5-10 different people, some of which are completely unaware there is such a thing as a sign by-law in our city. As a result, most companies around here don't worry...
  16. How much time do you estimate for employee to hem & grommet 15 banners?

    I would expect an employee who doesn't have to deal with any distractions (answering phone, dealing with clients etc.) to be able to do these in 3 hours. Myself, it would take about 5 because i'm constantly being interrupted.
  17. Should I give this dude a friendly warning???

    Why bother? let them figure it out themselves, if you get involved, and harley actually comes after them, they may think you had something to do with it.
  18. I just made the biggest blunder one could make on a full wrap for a full size van

    Versaworks gets pretty flakey with paneling prints some times, I make sure I triple check now!
  19. Looking for anti-microbial pressure sensitive laminate

    I'm assuming it's a laminate that is infused with something like microban, so bacteria can't grow on it, I've never seen it, but we do a lot of work with hospitals and it would be a nice upsell.
