  1. Print and cut media poll

    It depends on the job. We use a lot of Arlon 4600lx for exterior signs, and often use GF 201 for interior / short term / decals.
  2. Insurance requirements

    We were told something similar when I updated my policy. I NOPE'd out of that right away. There is no way I'm paying literally 5 times more insurance just because I put a sticker on a car. I asked if every shop that sells bumper stickers needs the same policy type, and they said "they should."...
  3. Trying to reset a gmail password....help!!!

    are you using a @gmail.com address or are they hosting your webmail? I'm pretty sure I need to talk to the admin on my account to change anything associated with my business gmail account. By admin, I'm talking about the webhosting company who set it up for me.
  4. Cost Effective Photo Printing on Acrylic?

    Call WYLD GFI, they are in NJ and i'm sure they can help you with this project, soup to nuts.
  5. Suggestions Was just wondering what others might be doing..........................

    Yes. This is where we'd be as well. You didn't mention if you're flat bed printing or what vinyl you'll be using.
  6. If the big design firms...

    IDK, but i think it needs to POP more. Maybe a few lens flares would help. Also, I need my email address included. its freshisdabest1999 @ aol.com
  7. Do you warranty your signs?????????????

    We don't explicitly state a warranty. But in general, we'll fix/replace stuff if they fail within a year (or so, depending on what it is.) We do tons of cut-vinyl car lettering. If someone comes in with scratched panel or other failure that was their fault, as long as they paid full price (I...
  8. When someone asks..."Is that the best price you can give me?"

    1. there are groups of people who come into my shop that i automatically add a bit, so when they no-undoubtedly ask for a discount, I can hem and haw and lower it to what I would normally charge. 2. I always can give a better price, but its not apples to apples. When people keep pushing, I...
  9. Where can I get an academic regalia banner? (picture included)

    i'd try a local embroidery shop
  10. Need a source for .080 reflective brown alum (3" x 36")

    harbor sales in maryland can cut the 080, you'd have to apply the reflective yourself
  11. Need to source a sign produced from sustainable materials...

    aluminum is sustainable. i'd suggest using bamboo panel with aluminum lettering
  12. Business Cards

    I dislike using SilkCards.com. They are made in China. I think 4over does a better job and they are made in the USA.
  13. How to return Roland Printer

    I feel like your old machine, sitting in a box for almost 2 months, is less valuable today then it was when it was traded in. I'd be inclined to ask them for the depreciated value on that machine. OR I'd fight to have them pay you out on the trade in. So, if you got a 3K credit, they owe you...
  14. Business Cards

    You can get a similar look using 4over - Suede with Raised Spot UV. But it won't have the painted edges.
  15. How to return Roland Printer

    I need to stop reading this thread. I feel my blood pressure rising. I'm so sorry you are dealing with this BULLS HIT from roland. Do you have a lawyer? Can you get them to draft a letter stating you expect a full refund on all monies put out on the defective machine? Also, i'm not really...
  16. Rant Customers who want things asap, but won't get you what you need

    YES!!! we have 4 installs, ready to go. We called to make appointments this week and all but 1 said "hold off, i'm broke." Like, why did you order something if you didn't have the money to pay for it. And yes, these are all repeat customers that we have a good relationship with. I mean, I...
  17. Texas' High-school Football Obsession and half million dollar sign

    i'm not 100% on this statement, but I think turf can actually be more economical in the long run. Maintenance, watering, re-seeing, etc on grass fields is expensive.
  18. Need Help Graphics Installation Training & Testing Programs?

    https://graphics.averydennison.com/en/home/resources-and-learning/certification-classes/advanced-class.html There is one in Florida next week but it looks like its sold out. Call though, I think when my partner did it he got in on a wait list. I think you can learn a lot about not only wraps...
  19. Found an Incredible Squeegee - Cheap Wrap Tools

    I'm not belittling or nay-saying you. The description says "ultrasuede felt edge." But anyway, that wasn't my point. It was that the basis is a squeegee that I really like anyway and would recommend.
