I prefer working off of pictures for vehicle lettering and partial wrap designs.
But for preparing a full wrap visual it is allot easier to use a vector template.
All the body line are created and it saves allot of time.
Problem is that the templates are not accurate as far as molding or...
It is kind of inevitable that you were going to get comments about "Made in USA" in regards to your topic.
I replied because i wanted the question posted. Would you be willing to spend more in order to save jobs.
My personnal answer on it is "No". I view this the same way all business...
China also subsidizes shipping exports.
I understand wanting to save money. And honestly that's the way it is today. Think for yourself because no one else will.
But when you are in a "we have to do something about losing our jobs" discussion.
Then it's time to reflect on what you are...
As long as you have air assist as you are cutting you should have no problem.
I cut extruded and cast acrylic (Plexiglass) and both work just fine.
Although the cast acrylic is best for a smoother cut/finish, extruded works great.
Don't put Lexan in your laser! Then you will see sparks and...
I don't know what's an LF File or SCP4 but i do know when a customer says keep the costs down, it means 4mm coroplast and a digital print with no lam.
Then you tell them what to expect from that product and it's either "no problem" or we go up from there.
I thought that was the American way!
Along with calling everything, so whatever hits you can boast about it and if not ... Well just shrug it off. :peace!:
Just got a call from Grimco and i just ordered a 42"x100' roll of Sihl ClearSOL WetCling.
Expected to arrive within 5 business days.
Thank you x2chris7x for your suggestion.
Really looking forward and am curious to work with this material (especially since it has no adhesive).
Looks...
Thanks Gino. Definitely bookmarked that site :thumb:
Still waiting on Grimco for availability of the ClearSOL WetCling stuff but also contacted another supplier and am waiting for availability
on a product called Opti-Clear.
SQ. FT. pricing is more than the other materials i was looking at...
I have another supplier in Montreal that i buy my Oracal products from.
I will inquire with them about shorter rolls of 290 GF.
Thank you for your help.
I don't wish to buy a 150' roll of material for just three 7 foot windows. Especially cast material
I can get 82 feet of Etched Matcac material.
The Sihl ClearSOL WetCling mateiral comes in a 42"x100' (two other sizes available) with a really close price tag to Mactac's option.
I really...
What's the difference between 3651 clear and 3641 clear?
I'm looking at Orafol's site and there does not seem to be much difference in it's application.
Edit: I am using a Roland VS540
Hey, thanks for the suggestions guys :thumb:
I went and looked at the 3550 ClearSol and saw Grimco as a supplier. Contacted them and they did give me a price which
fits in my budget but it is a new product and being in Canada ... Grimco Montreal is going to check availability for me.
I...
Vectorizing and cutting is not an option.
It's a Photoshop montage of three of their own plans. (Pictures of the plans)
So there is a visible paper gradient appearing as well.
Like the title says ... I am looking for a clear vinyl that i could print on and install on interior office windows.
Size of panels are in the 40" wide by 84" high. I have three of them to do.
Opacity of colors is not an issue with this since i would be printing construction blueprints...
You might need new pinch rollers.
What may be happening is the rubber part of the roller detaches itself from the steel roller and starts to move around.
This causes the vinyl to bunch up or go completely off track.
I used a CAMM 1, 24" plotter for 17 years but had to change my rollers i...
You're right. It doesn't stay on very well.
I always cut away my prints when installed over rubber trim.
Edit to add: Funny thing. I have recently noticed a vehicle with marked trim. And i knew which shop had done the work and know they use 3M products.
Told myself they probably used...
