I didn't read all replies but it sounds like you had installation failure, not material failure. Very possible you got a roll with bad adhesive. Take a sample piece and send to 3m, they will send you a new roll if there was a problem. it's happened to me a few times over the years with 3m and...
Hello All! I have a client with a rather large program that I'd like to capture. I'm looking for options for 2nd surface window perf. I know about a few options, just looking to see if anyone has anything else they can think of. I'll list my current options below.
1. Contravision Clear...
We do A LOT of wall wraps. We use all the regular wall films like avery 2611 and phototex when the job calls for it. Our go to is IJ180cv3 with 8520 lam. After years of trying products, the ij180 is just perfect for most applications.
I keep Avery 1360z optically clear in stock. Easy to just have one cast lam. If you never use perf or never laminate perf, I'd probably keep the 1060z on hand instead. It's a little thicker and offers another year of warranty.
As of right now, I plan on sending it back. The machine is extremely limited in its use. I believe they are working on a flexible ink version that may be a lot better. For our purposes, it doesn't do as much as it should. To get the correct quality on a lot of the stuff, you have to print at...
You'll see how brittle everything comes out. Oce is well aware of the issue and warned us upfront on it. 3m will not certify their inks currently. The new generation of ink is being developed and expected to be much better although the current machine probably will not be able to accept it as is.

I have a mutoh 1628ur up for sale. It's a UV roll to roll printer that has white and varnish. I use it primarily for white print on optically clear window films. About 6 months old. Only selling because I need a faster machine.
We just had one installed. They told us upfront that brittle media is an issue. I have someone coming by to attempt a work around for it. I'll let you know if I have any success.
I have been running production mode for window perf which has been great. I run about 1000 sf of window perf daily. IJ180cv3 which I use for wall wraps we have been running on High quality which is 430 sf an hour.
I ran avery 2903 for some decals and had to use specialty mode to get a good...
