  1. Good vinyl for printing translucent?

    Oracal/Orajet 3850 seems to be a common choice for many here, myself included. 7 years is their claim, but YMMV
  2. Need a template of a 1996 ford 8500 commercial truck

    I'm pretty sure that truck is in one of my old PVO books. Probably they still have it available for single purchase? Probably too late now I assume...
  3. Colorific..............................

    I had a similar salesman come in and try to sell me the same BS line. He claimed that they manufactured ink for "companies like Roland". Eventually when pressed he admitted that they do not in fact work for Roland. Regardless of his claim, there is no way that it's legit. While it does seems...

  5. Transit Shuttle Bus Install

    Solid color cast is the way to go (assuming you don't have to exact match something, which would require a digital print) I could use a non-egress type of vinyl, but egress goes down faster, which saves money in the end. My preferred choice would be something in the 180c range, but there are...
  6. Help with this font please

    Arnold Bocklin
  7. Please ID fonts

    Looks to me like something that someone drew out by hand in MS Paint. I might try to use something like Serpentine Sans.
  8. Font ID Please

    Benguiat Medium, condensed a bit.
  9. how to scale pro vehicle outlines

    Also, if increasing it to a 1:1 scale is too large for your software, then starting from the 1:20 scale, scale it 200% which should reder it at 1/10 scale which is far easier to work with than 1/20.
  10. need someone to help match 3m vinyl to Pantone colors

    In the 3M 7125/7175 series: I would use Perfect Match Red 263 for PMS 185. (fairly close match) The 1545 brown is pretty in between the 019 Deep Mahogany Brown and the 029 Russett brown, I would go with the the Deep Mahogany though since the Russett seems a little too red. 122 Yellow is a...
  11. Recent Work

    Wonderful! I have always admired your style and I'm very happy to see work picking up that is what you enjoy.
  12. Reflective on Reflective or No?

    It does. Years back I made a sign with a Reflective Black background and Reflective White copy per customers request. It was a big mistake and he had us re-do it later on. The reflective black reflected so much light that it completely obliterated the copy. As a rule of thumb, any time black is...
  13. Engine Turn Bling Bling

    When I use SignGold I always design in an outline that I then use to trap over the edge of the gold (just like you would with translucents) The edges do tend to brown up and lift a bit of you don't, but when you do, it will last and last. 10 years and counting.....
  14. Suction Cups to hang sign(s) in Windows

    The ones from Hang Ups Unlimited with embedded thread and brass nuts are quite nice
  15. Boat Registration Numbers

    We have a standard rate of $17.95/pair 1 color or $31.95/pair for 2 color. Been using that rate for at least 10 or 15 years and hardly ever a complaint. Of course, custom designed or color matching would be extra....
  16. Streaking on my prints. No not a XXX post.. lol

    This happens to me when the print heads have built up lots of dirt and hair and require a manual cleaning.
  17. Any merchant members doing yard signs?

    Same here. I get out bid a lot on things like yard signs that are usually seen as a commodity, but I don't much mind since I keep plenty busy on other more interesting things.
  18. Any merchant members doing yard signs?

    Bear in mind, yellow coro tends to be rather translucent, moreso than standard white. I usually educate customers about this, and have sometimes had the signs printed with a flood yellow on a white board, then the copy on top. If they actually make an opaque yellow, I would love to know....
  19. White real estate "l" frames

    I used to get white frames from Bull Steel, but they no longer sell directly and you have to find a distributor who happens to carry the item you need....
  20. HP nomenclature

    The wheelchair symbol with the word ACCESSIBLE is what's usually used when being PC is a concern. Obviously add other copy / arrows as needed....
