  2. 10yr Old Wrap Removal Suggestions

    What about cleaning up what's there and going over the top? Surprised the trailer is still on the road. Normal use kills them in about 5 to 6 years on average. Friend of mine did that last week. Trailer was getting near the end of its life and client didn't want to pay for removal.
  3. Laminate Help Needed

    You need to have a dead flat surface to laminate by hand. I use a piece of tempered glass for small projects. Everything else gets run through our laminator
  4. Go big or stay home?

    Tough question to answer since it is a personal decision. I work from home and it's been good. Could never justify the numbers of having a separate shop and all that comes with it. Best advice I can give is always deliver a quality product on time. I've had clients tell me that I'm not the...

  6. Need Help What printer would you suggest to print an image with texture on silicone or plastic.

    Might be one of the sheet sensors quit. Had to replace the rear sensor on mine. There are two of them on the right side(head side) One in the rear and one at the front and are located under round end slots in the platen. Something simple to check is if the rear cover is loose. That will...

  11. Best business credit card for sign/print shop?

    We use the Costco Visa for business. 1% on purchases outside the store, 2% in the store. 3% for restaurants. 4% on gas/fuel which is huge. Truck has a 40 gallon tank. They send us a coupon for renewal which takes membership down to about 70 bucks. I'm good with that.

  15. Need Help Encoder strip replacement tips

    Is the encoder head out of position? There isn't much clearance and it may have gotten bumped. Seems odd it would catch. I think they are all about the same as far as clips and springs. Maybe it's catching on one of those items?

  18. Digital Print with RealGold accents

    Yes, I'm installing. You and Bill have covered the options. Leaning towards your idea but will talk to a friend who runs shop with an Edge. As far as printing to mimic gold that's not an option. Yacht already has Florentine gold striping then I opened my yap and said: "Sure we can match that".
  19. Digital Print with RealGold accents

    Thank you fro your response. Shouldn't be any movement of vinyl though. I'm using cast wrap material with cast laminate.
  20. Digital Print with RealGold accents

    Production question for yacht transom lettering. See attached file for reference. Client wants the gold drop shadow to be real gold leaf and I'm looking for best practice production. Text reads FREEDOM. I can print/lam/cut the base lettering then plot the gold leaf and individually apply the...
