  5. Perforation definition

    Is this a vinyl decal or just a paper sheet with punch out shapes? If it's just a paper sheet, you would make a series of dashes with short spaces between. You'll have to experiment with the length of cut and length of space. Not enough paper remaining and the cut pieces will come loose while...
  6. Question Help with Chevrolet Blue

    This is on the edge of the sign. There's a band of blue plexiglass about a foot wide up the whole height of the sign. It's in 8' long segments, and a couple of them cracked. Since there are three colors of blue plex, I was trying to find out which one to order. Nobody could tell me.
  7. Need Help CMYK/RGB Code fluorescent yellow, or fluorescent yellow-green

    If he's just wanting to put diagonal stripes on the back, get a roll of 2" wide reflective tape in the color you want and stripe it on. It'll cost way more to print reflective and cut it up.

    Perforation cutting is a feature of some (not all) plotters. Usually you have to set the condition on the plotter to do it, as well as move the blade to a different holder location. If you are contour cutting a decal plus perf cutting, you would have to have two cut lines, one for the decal and...

  12. Wrapping a 50ft tall concrete silo. Anyone ever done something similar? Pricing and time?

    That's like a job we did when they filmed a reality show at an auction house here. They hired us to put a sign on the roof of the auction house, but they filmed the installation to look as if the employees of the auction house did it themselves. Middle of summer, cloudless 95 degree day. They...
  13. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    The temporary (removable) vinyl you are using is intended for short-term advertising, like a special sale or introductory offer that will only be displayed a short time--weeks or months. If you want longer term signage, you need to get a vinyl with permanent adhesive.
  14. Rtape Rainbow problems with Summa OPOS Barcode

    We don't use barcodes, and we don't have a Summa, but when using materials like that we stick a piece of application tape over the registration marks and trace the marks with a fine tip Sharpie.
  15. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Firm pressure, with a squeegee. Wrap vinyls are designed that until firm pressure and even post-heating are applied in sensitive areas like edges, they can be easily lifted up and moved without stretching from sticking too much. Some are even slideable. You cannot just smooth them out on a flat...

    The GF255 is a temporary-use removable vinyl. Car wrap vinyl requires pressure to adhere. It has true pressure sensitive adhesive. So if no pressure is used when applying it, the adhesive doesn't get activated.
  17. Cut vinyl prices peeling after 1 month

    Even the cheapest vinyl should not spontaneously peel off after a day or a month. What kind of printer and what kind of vinyl are you using? What kind of printing/image is on the vinyl that is failing?

    Odd that you didn't get it in Find My Font. I just tried it and it was the top choice it came up with.
  19. Moisture in Cabinet, Vandal Covers

    If the holes go to something substantial on the inside they are probably for installing lifting rings. If you think it's raining in, put bolts in them. No lighted cabinet is actually sealed. Depending on atmospheric conditions you can get some fogging, but it goes away on its own. If the holes...

    I think he is going to feel (and regret) every one of the $12,000 they are paying him. At the rate he's going it'll take 16 days, assuming he encounters no more difficulty as he goes higher.
