That guy who used to hang out with Sergio.

Yeah, saw it.

So I clustered up an order. I had three 42" x 42" digital prints (oracal 3651) and laminated with gloss laminate. Got them in, mounted them to Gatorfoam, cut them to shape, sanded the edges, and called my customer. Then I found out they were supposed to have a matte finish (my fault, not...
