  1. Vendor for huge mesh banner, sewn or welded to shape??

    Merritt should be able to do that and they're a merchant member. As far as sewn or welded here is what I do. Big banners get ultrasonically welded by my sub. I have webbing put in the hems also.

  5. How to Enlarge shutterstock images for large wall murals

    You could try OnOne's Perfect Resize. Starting with a a high pixel density base I've pushed photos 1000%. But you will still have to crop,etc... In situations like yours I will push the photo as far as software and my talent allows. Then I've generate a background/border to fill in the rest...
  6. Getting Ready to Take the Plunge -- What to Do About Health Insurance

    Obamacare exchanges closing their doors: http://money.cnn.com/2016/08/02/news/economy/aetna-obamacare/ Rates are also increasing. Brother-in-law had his plan taken away because it was too good.:banghead: His employer still hasn't revealed the new plan. Only thing he was told is it will be...

  8. HP Latex 570 vs Roland EJ

    This should be interesting. You're the only person on this forum with the new EJ-640. Information on the EJ from end users has been non-existent on Signs 101.
  9. Roland ECO Solvent vs HP Latex

    I agree with using Roland's for small runs and being aboe to use scrap from other jobs. HP is a no-go for me since the smallest piece you can load is around 42". IMO the all the HP's are designed around load a roll, send the job, and walk away production. They must figure we're either to...
  10. Why do these nozzles come and go?!?!

    IIRC somebody posted in regards to black having issues. Something to do with the carbon black content of the ink causing nozzle drop-outs. Seemed to be a difference between OEM and 3rd party ink. First thing I'd look at is how many "shots" on the head. If the count is low then I'd make sure...
  11. What can we do if roland had not worked for a long time

    Before it was stored was it flushed with cleaning solution? Depending on the model it may not be worth fixing, unless new printers are extremely expensive in the Netherlands. At bare minimum you'll need print heads, cap tops, and dampers. Probably require new ink lines. If you can't do the...
  12. Temporary Window Signage

    We shall see. Client just ordered the job.
  13. Temporary Window Signage

    Cli Yup, you're missing something.:Big Laugh It's a client install and they've never done it before. I may send them a comp to play with. If they don't have installation issues I'll have my answer.
  14. Ordered the latex 110

    Once you've been printing let us know what you think.
  15. Temporary Window Signage

    Client is 125 miles away and put up the small pieces I send them. They aren't going to do a wet install or pay me to do it. I'm going to have to appeal to their finer sensibilities. I do like the suction cups with thumbscrews for rigid material.
  16. Temporary Window Signage

    I have a long term client that wants more static cling pieces for their windows. They like to reuse things. Problem is they want them 24" x 24". While I can make them that size I don't think it's a good idea. We normally do them no bigger than 12" x 12" or so. Looking for options to put...
  17. Exterior Grade Clear Coat for Brass

    Clear powder coat would be an option.
  18. New Ford Aluminum Trucks - No Magnets - Options?????

    GM will have aluminum trucks for the 2018 model year IIRC. Dodge will probably be right after that. About 10 years ago there was a super thin, reusable material that stuck real well, and I don't think it was magnetic. Manufacturer stopped making it. Something about high cost and poor sales...
  19. Sign company name.

    Many years ago a good friend had Aaron Signs. Two A's got you top listing in the phone book.:cool: Do they even make phone books anymore?
  20. Roland TrueVis

    Is it a single head unit or is there a head for each color that can be replaced? CMYK, 7 color...? How long is outgas time? How well does it track when printing? How well does it track when cutting laminated prints? How fast for vinyl? How fast for banners?
