Looks like a ~5" stripe, and longer than the bed for measurements. ;) Application is like a wrap; with bridging and stretching. Attachment striping was done with 3M 280.

I'm not sure how many other shops out there use Leo's products often; but you might want to pick up a roll if you have customers who use their proprietary products like Smart Gold. Since...... they are CLOSING DOWN in a week!!! Also, do NOT purchase their "cracked ice" as they no longer make...

had this happen recently, I needed to install some updates... and then it happened again, just had to reboot and the problem went away. Saving it as an EPS always seems to work better though, as .ai file susually only import what is on the artboard versus everything on the"whole page".

X2 on this material! (although I have used 280 on a couple very similar stripes...)

Jason, have you tried Grimco? Neon Engineering in Cincinnati might have a few common sizes in stock.

you're gonna have to upload better quality photos for any of us to see what's going on.

When printing: check the box to "Flip Every Other Panel", or do that manually if you make manual panels/tiles. That will fix a lot of different issues you may run into. If the panels line up perfectly on the table before you take them out to install; then you are stretching them when you take...

If you're not doing some type of custom color or printed pinstriping; just buy a roll of pinstriping. It will be perfectly cut and have clear premask on it already. I normally buy my pinstriping from Restylers Choice. I've used a lot of cutters, personally I like Gerber plotters for cut vinyl...

Looks like Avant Garde

The paper has ripples there causing problems. It could be that your humidity is too high or the heat setting on your printer is too high; causing these wrinkles. Think of it like the attached image, or if you've ever sprayed paint. If it was a boat, more contact would be made with the higher...

We encapsulate the vinyl with laminate. (1/8" extra laminate all the way around the vinyl) We do that all the time on fire trucks without issue. We use Leo's Gold, Sign Gold, materials from FirehouseDecals.com and have had no problems. Some of the golds DO turn greenish-gold after time in the...

X2 on this option.

Try printing your checks on a different material; looks like you're using matte banner now. A gloss print vinyl will help them show up better. It looks like the pattern is fine from what I can see (yes those colors are light). Your Loope & a flashlight should verify their solidity and quality...

Maybe our prices are WAY out of line, or it is because we're in a different market here in Kentucky; but our hourly design rates are around 1/2 - 2/3 of yours??? Thankfully, we do not have many reprints or lamination errors! We do the process completely in-house (design -thru install) besides...

That is when you have to sell them on the quality and different end product that they receive when they purchase from your shop.

A LOT of the time I personally have seen put towards setup of the wrap artwork for output (after design is agreed upon and "complete") comes down to a couple factors. One, is how picky the owner is about "waste vinyl"; if the owner doesn't care about a bit of waste, or has that figured into...

We were looking a tboth machines here; we decided upopn the latex since we can take the prints right off of it and laminate them and install them immediately. Getting ready to pull the trigger once our office expansion is complete.

Ritrama dropped off a book of samples here of their new wrap products. We've never used them; but their carbon fiber products (and others - SNAKE SKIN!) look awesome.

That's a good deal for an Edge system. I've used an Edge I, II and EdgeFX; They get quicker the newer they are - but the Edge I STILL does the best at printing w/o errors in my opinion. (although the FX has a bit higher small text print quality) The EnVision plotter is the best companion plotter...
