    Printed several large 42x61 inch panels with Clear Focus window perf on our UV printer and the ink that has dried in the "holes" is not releasing when we peel the backer off. Short of spending hours blowing out the holes with an air gun, anyone got any suggestions on how to get the negative...

    Thanks for all the suggestions and ideas. this is being used as a promotional "prop" for one of the largest healthcare systems in the country to promote buying a dedication brick for a cancer center expansion and a children's hospital upgrade. I like the boat float idea the best as spraying...

The advent of CTP technology probably...
  18. What kind of BLACK color built?

    Depends on your inks and which way they lean in hue/saturation. My UV inks run to the warm side, so I tend to have a cyan lead - like 40C/30M/20Y/100K - keeps it from turning to charcoaly brown. In offset - we used to use 65/55/50/100 - but thats alot of ink.
