  1. Need Help Mopar Paint Code to Printer?

    That color is granite Crystal Metallic You'll never be able to reproduce it with a CMYK printer. All you can make is essentially a battleship gray, which really won't look the same at all. If you need a sample of the paint you can buy a touch up paint for about $15, brush it out on a piece of...
  2. Sea-Doo Spark

    When we do those we use Arlon DPF8000.
  3. Printable Magnetic Receptive w/ Adhesive, Does it Exist?

    I don't remember what it was called, but we've done store graphic installations where we installed an adhesive magnetic backer to plasterboard walls, then a thin, printed magnetic graphic would install on it. Is that what you are looking for?
  4. Epson metallic color setup

    We haven't found using metallic silver as an underlayer to be real useful, though when I went to the Epson introductory demo they were printing color swatches using the silver underlayer to create metallic colors. Unfortunately they didn't provide a file to look at or a guide to how to set it up...
  5. Attaching 6mm ACM

    The problem with almost all hidden fasteners on ACM is that you can't screw into the back of the ACM to attach the fastener. And that leaves you depending on adhesive--but the hidden fastener is usually too small to have enough surface area of adhesive to hold the sign up. That's why screwing a...
  6. How to print truck curtains with HP Latex Technology

    We don't have many of that kind of trailer in the US. The vast majority of enclosed trailers are rigid. But they call that type curtain side trailers here. Your guide is very detailed and specific.
  7. Centering Art in Onyx

    In the dialog box where you set the media width one of the choices is query printer.
  8. Centering Art in Onyx

    Have you set the print to be centered on the media in Onyx? There's a place for that. However, for it to work properly either the media needs to be exactly the width you specify or you have to let Onyx get the media width from the printer (and don't use the hold-downs or let Onyx compensate for...
  9. Streaking / Banding?

    surface contamination on the substrate
  10. Secret Sign reveal

    depending on how much it will be handled during installation, you could put Glass Apeel on it. But it would probably be best to install it when nobody is there and then cover it.
  11. Attaching 6mm ACM

    The best way is to purposely show the fasteners by using standoffs. We have also done this (though it doesn't end up flush mounted) by screwing another material to the wall (indoors we use MDF, outdoors either aluminum blocks or another piece of ACM or thick PVC) and using either VHB tape or...

  15. Need Help Applying vinyl logos to fluted glass doors

    That picture shows flutes deep enough that you wouldn't be able to just squeegee normally across them. You could probably get vinyl on there by holding a metal squeegee (the wallpaper kind you use for putting application tape on) vertically and carefully going up and down the flutes.
  16. Need Help Applying vinyl logos to fluted glass doors

    I'd have to see the cross-section of the fluting to know if it would cause a problem. A small depth of wave isn't going to cause problems.
  17. Post and Panel kits

    You can use 4Ever Products vinyl frames with their metal stake system.
  18. Which 64" Solvent do I buy?

    We use the S70670 with white and silver ink. No clogging problems as long as you don't run out of white ink and have no replacement for a week and a half (we bought ours so early that there were no white cartridges in the pipeline and when it gave us the low ink warning for the white it took so...
  19. Epson Printers

    It all depends on whether it tries the backtension test on that last foot of vinyl or not. If it does and there's nothing attached to the core, it will ring an alarm and cancel the print.
