  1. Homemade Application Fluid??

    just curious how different alcohol is from methyl hydrate? I can find methyl hydrate at any home building centre but where can you buy alcohol by the gallon? Never see it at Lowes or HD.
  2. Weird sounds appearing or disappearing from jv3 printers.

    Mine is not that noisy, I oil the rails once a week. What I do notice is that the fans on the front have a pitch that makes talking on the phone difficult. Almost like a noise block out effect.
  3. How does this happen (I didn't do this sign)...

    After reading what I wrote, I thought I would go to my back door to inspect 2 decals I put on it back in oct 2006 as a test to see how well the inks would hold to southern sunshine on a door that gets awfully hot in the summer. One was laminated with 3ml laminate and the other had none...
  4. How does this happen (I didn't do this sign)...

    If the sign is only 3 or 4 years old, I find it odd that a lamination of any type sold to sign shops would do this so early in its life. Let me rephrase that.... It makes no sense as to why the print would have been laminated at all, as the whole purpose of laminate is to protect and extend...
  5. quick laminating question

    If the print is dark then I would say even after bursting the bubbles you will see them days later but give it a try. I am currently running a job of 25 32" x 38" signs and the background colour is a dark navy blue and I had to hit the brakes on the laminator a few times and it is so obvious...
  6. Protecting small vector cut letters

    If you are using 2ml vinyl I see no need for protection

  8. need help for a local vinyl supplier in toronto area

    I doubt any supplier carries that much of any translucent colour ( except white) Might be best to check with ND as they can grab stock from around the country.

  11. very strange behaviour

    nah figured it out... the simplest easiest explanation.... The reader on the head did not see 54" material and came up with 50" or so I guess, and that created the problem. What made it worse is that unlike most graphics, it would be obvious that something was missing; the gradient on these...
  12. very strange behaviour

    I have a re occuring job that I run for another sign shop and I print a gradient and then laminate it to a non glare frosted acrylic for them. The file is set up from 1 square box 6" x 6" and I multiply it up to do 40 pieces at a time. They cut the plexi so that they just fit on and then they...
  13. What kind of a scam is this?

    I googled her name and she is on a known list of scammers http://www.xmission.com/~daina/autoscamlist/sinfo_0000657.html

  15. curious if air egress comes in sheet format for screenprinters?

    any brand is fine so long as it sticks
  16. curious if air egress comes in sheet format for screenprinters?

    Just wondered how big a pain it would be for a screen printer to have to deal with a wrap material in a roll form for screen printing? I suppose if it lay flat after cutting up it would not be a big deal, but also wonder if it is offered in a sheet form?
  17. somebody using my 1-866 number to hassle people.

    I received a call from a lady several months ago asking me why I kept calling her. I asked who she was out of curiosity and also to determine if I had been calling her... maybe she was a deadbeat that owed me money. She then told me it was her fathers phone and he was not well. She then asked...
