  1. To Laminate or not-window perf continued

    hum, I wonder what the desert dust and sand do to the surface of the digitally printed window perf that is NOT protected with laminate? I have been to Vegas, Arizona, New Mexico and the west Texas deserts, and always seam to get a light coating of fine desert sand coating my vehicle. Once I was...
  2. To Laminate or not-window perf continued

    Ok, if it works for you... However, I served in the military, where you have to follow certain operating procedures set forth by your superiors and I also worked for two large fortune 500 companies (Texas Instruments and Dell Computers for 20+ years), where you had to follow specific procedures...
  3. What is this called, and how do I remove it?

    Hey everyone, thanks for the info, I like the idea of drilling a hole and using a cotter pin, that's how my other dolly was, and it was easy to change the wheels. Now it doesn't matter if I destroy the pal-nut (push-nut) getting it off. :thankyou:
  4. What is this called, and how do I remove it?

    What is this called, and how do I remove it (see photo below)? I have a two wheel dolly and I need to change out the wheel/tire, however there is a retainer holding the wheel onto the 5/8" diameter axel that looks like it's press-fit onto the axel, and I'm not sure how to remove it without...
  5. To Laminate or not-window perf continued

    Window perf fogging in the desert: Here's a thought, don't apply the laminated window perf to the glass in a non-controlled environment, trapping moisture under the laminated window perf and allowing it to fog up later. Only apply the laminated window perf in a humidity controlled environment...

    Yea, that and I can't type worth a darn. Thanks for catching the TYPO...... I hate to give someone the wrong info.....:thumb:
  7. 6'x12' Trailer Wrap Price

    Oops, that was a typo, NOT 3651, I meant Orajet 3551 for the trailer! http://www.orafol.com/gp/americas/en/products/all-products-product-details/items/orajet-3551 :doh:
  8. Another Texan!

    Hi Josh, welcome to Signs101 from another Texan (Belton).
  9. 6'x12' Trailer Wrap Price

    Not having a laminator should not prevent you from applying sheet laminate, you can use the Big Squeegee to apply laminate much easier than applying a liquid. Here are two videos from two of our Sign101 members (Tim & Doug) using the Big Squeegee for laminating digital prints...
  10. Another new member

    :Welcome: From Texas! Yep, you can use your new printing / cutting machine to make tons of money making slogans and logos, it doesn't take much room at all, so you can surly set it up in your home in only one room. In just a few short days you will have made so much money, you will have to...
  11. 6'x12' Trailer Wrap Price

    That's neat, now I have a NEW tool for estimating, just have to get a scale and I will be set. I'll try it out on my next 45' trailer project, because I always figure my design cost separate (10% of the job), it will make it easy to come up with a price. :ROFLMAO:
  12. Print/Cut Resizing workflow

    I would create the different sized images (like three different sizes) of the same image without the cut lines. Then create the cut lines in Illustrator foe each specific re-zed image, that way the cut and bleed will be constant (1/8", 1/4'), or whatever you want. If you scale an image with...
  13. We made the cover of Sign Builder Illustrated!

    Don and Steve, I saw the cover when I received my magazine, and read the article, but never put it together that it was you (CES020) here on Signs101. It was a good read and interesting to know Don started out working from home part time while serving in the military (thanks for your service)...
  14. Banner Jet Walk-Thru + UV Ink Conversion!

    I agree, it would be a good idea to offer a conversion kit for all the popular eco-sol printers. Just think, you purchase the kit and follow the video instructions, everything is included, all the parts are pre-machined to fit your printer, you could even include the first batch of inks to get...
  15. Banner Jet Walk-Thru + UV Ink Conversion!

    T-Jet UV Nope, NOT Roland you should worry about, It's the Chinese printer manufacturer who is taking notes and soon going to implement all your trade secrets and come out with their own low-cost UV printer. Please keep posting the details and photos, I'm sure they appreciate you doing the...
  16. What would you do?

    :goodpost: There you go, Gino said it much better than me. I stand by what I said and Gino made clearer, THERE IS ONLY ONE RED (Primary color). Red-Orange, Red-Brown, Red-Pink, etc, are variations and NOT TRUE RED! :smile:
  17. 5 Ways to Extend The Life of Your Print Heads

    Very good info. I agree, if you added photos it would be much better, (after all, Confucius says, a picture is worth a 1000 words). :clapping:
  18. Does anyone know if having a bubble in a damper will cause missing nozzles?

    Lots of GOOD info from Biker Scout! Please report back, and lets us know if this worked or not? Thanks :thumb:
  19. Car Wrapping Tutorial 2013

    Ok, so you are saying you don't apply the vinyl into the recess, you let the white paint be exposed? According to 3M (see video) you shouldn't stretch the vinyl more than 30% in any recess, right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqtNun03Umg
  20. Realtree camo patterns

    Yep, I can't believe Dodge would use the Mossy Oak repeating pattern to feature their new truck! It looks so fake to me, on the side of the truck you see the same tree branch repeated four (4) times in the width of two doors, and three (3) times on the tail gate (see below)! Anyone who has...
