    Something looks familiar, Lol great job!
  2. How not to get the job

    In the past when I had a job interview, I would always drive there the night before the interview, just so i knew how to get there without any suprizes! I would expect anyone going for an interview in an area they are unsure about to do the same!

    I love these ads!, they have them on a few busses in my city!

    at first glance it looks like a cell phone re-seller logo
  5. Wet laminating

    given that most dealers go on about how you don't need to laminate solvent prints, it's not surprising, not saying it's correct, but without any real world experience I can see how some people think they can do without.
  6. Wet laminating

    we used to do this before we gout a laminator, never had any complaints. One word of advise though, make sure the backer paper of the vinyl is able to handle the wet, Oracal 3651 is fine, but we got some other brand and the paper seperated as soon as the water touched it, leaving little bits of...
  7. Impossible Deadline?

    Congrats on getting stuff done on time! I absolutely hate the awards end of our business, suppliers never have stock of what your customer picked from the catalog (it's on a boat from China now, should be here is 6-8 weeks, if it doesn't arrive broken) The customers always take up sooo much of...

    Corel X3 has a bunch, so does Signlab I believe.

    What is it about stainless steel that causes failures? we have applied a bit of vinyl to stainless, and havn't had any failures yet.
  10. can you laminate a scrim banner?

    I laminate printed banners that have changable elements on them, we have 1 customer who has a craft show every year, we printed all the permanant info on the banner and laminated it, all the changable stuff (dates, location) gets done with Oracal 351 vinyl. The laminate just gives the ink a bit...
  11. Dang! Canon Rebel XT is not compatble with Windows@#$%7

    is there a program you can use instead? Like Adobe Lightroom?
  12. Mounting prints to yard signs, Lam or no?

    I usually print all of them as a big sheet, mount them to coro with our laminator and then trim them to size, saves you having to cut the coro to size and then trim the prints. i don't laminate coro prints.
  13. Major vendor contacted our customer...

    The proper way to goabout this would be for Major Vendor to contact Stacy's boss and ask them if they would mind submitting a photo of the finished job for their website/catalog etc.. We sub out a few things, but as far as our customers know, we produce it in house, if there is an issue, we...
  14. quote on a printed vinyl

    are you trying to get a price so you know what you can charge, or do you actually have a job that you need to sub out?
  15. There goes my cutting strip!

    i would be tempted to just smooth the groove out with sandpaper and fill with epoxy or something, if that doesn't work, you're no further behind than you are now, if it screws up just buy a new piece like you were planning to.
  16. whitening a polycarb sign face

    yup, buy new faces. Seriously, I've never been able to get them looking new again, plus the amount of labour involved is most likely more than the cost of new faces.
  17. Scratch off stickers?

    is he looking for a sticker he can apply to his existing cards or is he looking for whole new cards with the scratch off built in? I don't think it's a sticker, it's kind of a coating.
  18. eBay funny product

    I got one on those for christmas from a friend, it looks cool but's it's really hard to clean after you use it, so it's a display piece now.
  19. Banner Rentals

    :goodpost: What scares me the most is that HE even thinks he's overpriced, if there is one person who should value your work it's YOU!
  20. Banner Rentals

    I don't think you are understanding the concept that your time is worth something, if you are of the mindset that "the raw materials only cost me $2 so I can sell it for $5 and make money" then I suggest a career in a retail flooring business, everything by the square foot. Every dollar store...
