  7. Friends with other sign shops, why the problem

    For shops in my immediate area, I'm friends with a few, cordial with some others, and don't know the rest. I keep my sub work out of the local area, just simpler that way.
  8. installing on glass in extreme cold

    Yea, I heard that about Rapidtac2, but still usually go dry. In the cold I take my time and burnish the print with my bare hand to try to warm it a bit before slowly peeling the transfer paper. There are some maniacs who use a heat gun/hair dryer. I guess it would work on a very low setting...
