Take them to Staples, they will give you $2 credit for each one up to 10 per month, takes about 60 days to get the first credit, and who knows what they do with them.

We are very lucky, when we need an additonal amount of alcohol the state alcohol store is just 3 doors down on the way to the mailbox!

Kcinnick, I hope you are not feeling too beat up, but all have had some good advice, probably the best is to work in a sign shop for 3 months (a year is far better, but not easy to do). Adding a few thoughts here for you from what we have learned. We are a full time operation and have...

Hi from the dry side! You could check with Les at US Cutters, he may be able to help.

We typically replace the encoder strip about every 6 mos, and the sensor once per year. I keep one of each in stock and replace them myself, and do the calibration. Talking to techs I think the problem we have is the overspray issue combined with a very dusty area is the cause. We rarely get...

Look at the manufactures information, none of them 3M, Avery ect, will warranty on a horizontal surface. Have had two similar failures happen, one with Avery, and one with 3M, both applied about the same time. Common areas, neither vehicle was washed often, and both were out in the sun...

Finding the right employee, and a good employee is a challenge to say the least. As a small shop, everyone has to design, clean, produce, install, and just about everything else that needs to be done. Hire a graphic artist and explain this, and in the interview they agree, not a problem, then...

Had similar problem on a "donated" car from a car dealer for a promotion, short term wrap only 60 days, on removal paint clear coat came off in large chunks. Got lucky, since the car was donated, the wrap was donated and the winner just go lucky no one had to stand good, but a real learning...

why not do them yourself?

We deal with the Seattle branch and they are very helpfull when I call, and have a great Roland tech, who has worked on our Roland for 5 + years and bailed me out a few times over the phone. Only problem I have is getting invoices, we use a credit card when ordering, and I always have to call...

Have a customer asking to do this on his black truck, reading thru this, I looked up Avery and see that they had a SF100 true shadow vinyl, which is what I think the references were to. So I called Fellers, and they no longer stock it, asked about special order, and Avery has discontinued it...

Wow! this is going to be a huge mess to clean up from, wonder what that will do to the federal budget? Mosh, glad your farm and business is above water, and hope you can sell lots of signs when this is over, must be rough on all most all the busness folks there, good luck and keep posting...

ASE in Idaho

Yes, this works as advertised and is great for some situations, like some odd curves, or a long cut on a curved truck. The trick is to get it started, to do this we use a knife to make a small cut, and then pull, works great!

It all depends on the Chamber, and how they run it, they all say they want to promote local business, but often the "paid help" have a lot of freedom on what and where they buy. One of the local chambers here buys printing from out of the area ''to save money", so much for buy here. We have...

Back to the original discussion---- We have both a Flecher Terry wall mount and a Saw Trax, The Saw Trax is the model on wheels, so we roll it our the back to do any cutting, for most things it works good and we are very happy with it. I purchased the Dibond cutter for it, overpriced, and a...

We have this and have seen very limited use by potential wrap customers. We have the website on our email signature, and have used it in our other marketing efforts. In doing my semi annual review of expenses I am not sure if it is worth keeping based on the amount of use we get in the store...
