The same thing happens here, then they see the quality they get for $6000 and come crawling back!

The pink "Lil' Chizler" is my favorite tool for removing VHB adhered emblems, although I admit that I have never tried the fishing line trick... Once the plastic is off, get a corner of the remaining VHB/adhesive lifted up and pull it along the surface "away" from the rest of the adhesive and it...

$8-10 roughly. Is it just one? do they want it seamless? how complex is the design? etc? these are all factors to consider.

GREAT work. The only one that looks like it could use a bit of tweaking is the mist/aroma coming off of the cookies obscuring the text a bit too much for my taste.

There are metallic sparkly laminates for wrap vinyls that look a lot like the metallic flake of bass boats. Fellers sells them.

We have two mimaki's here, and with proper care (and possibly some new parts) they are quite a workhorse. At my last place of employment we had a GS6000 and the print quality was awesome and had no trouble with it either in ~3 years of running it. Our next investment is latex.

We are thinking about making one of these, but cannot find pictures of any online anymore. The link above is dead - can any of you with "homemade" solvent drying/outgassing contraptions share your pics and results?

What was the end result?

Nice signs. Welcome then! We'll have to meet up some time. Signs101 is a great resource, lots of knowledge here.

My old one was a bit simpler than most posted here, but it did the trick for the small shop I was at. The bottom was formatted to match a quickbooks invoice, so I could just give it to accounting to have them make up the invoice.

With the banners being 150' long EACH, I would definitely sub that job out. I'm sure you have a wholesaler locally that has been begging for some business. Give them this one; if you get a headstrike 100' into the print or any other problem at all - you have to throw the roll away and start over.

Are you the one with the yard signs at the corner of 17 & Paxton Road? (where the tornado came through) I'm in Crittenden, I work up in Hebron. Welcome!

Are you setting the plotter to "remote" before sending the job or after you click send/cut in onyx? Ours is wonky if you send the job before the plotter is ready; but it is a mimaki.

Exactly what type of tape? VHB? VHB you can grab an edge and pull it along perpendicular/in line with the tape and it'll all pull right off.

There are many manufacturers out there, you may have to get in touch with the graphics division of the factory to se eif they have a record of what material is/was being used for this type of projects. Leo's Gold Lion is very popular, but other manufacturers use FirehouseDecals.com products...

Oversize print. Use your laminator to run the board and graphic through - It'll be a lifesaver.

I would recommend letting it sit 24 hours on the reel, but it hasn't ever caused a problem for me either. Most times, it sits around 12 hours before it has to rush over to laminating.

It looks a bit like Triplet, but is fatter in different areas... Anyone know what font it is? I don't recall ever seeing it.
