Years ago, I used to print proofs off for clients and get them to sign them... We'd then keep the proofs in case they ever came back for any issues or simply wanted another print. That was a waste of time and space, There will always be colour changes in products there are to many variables in...

""Hi everyone, sorry, maybe not the subject, but I'm new and I don't know how to create a new post. I'm trying to open a sign making business in New Jersey, but I can't find some place to buy a cutting plotter or vinyl for that matter, could you recommend a company that sells machines and...

Hey Guys!! I have a customer coming in with a 69 Camaro SS for a full warp. I'm trying to figure out what to do with the uni-body style and where to put the seems. My 1st though was to put a stripe on the roof but he's not crazy about that. Next thought was to go up as high as I could with...

I don't print alot of banners but if prices were that low around here I'd just close the doors. I just printed 6 @ 4' x 8' mesh banners with reinforced edges and grommets for $220 each

Trash and start over. No questions asked

So, long story short I've partnered up with another sign shop in town, the 2 girls that were here doing the pricing and estimating are gone and I'm here trying to get a hold of a decent pricing structure for the business. I do everything of SQ Ft. that's the way I've always done it. I find a...

I'm sorry it's late and reading makes me sleepy.. I used to have a set of "Forks or fingers" I attached to the bottom of bucket or lifts. , could be C-Clamped on the front and ratchet strapped around and then I'd have straps and ropes to hold and wrap around whatever sign face your taking...

Tape measure never lies

Looks like a knock off of a JBC Titan. That arm on the right should have several notches in the position depending on what you laminating. if you laminating vinyl it should always be down and locked! Your Issue might be your approach, 210 is a thicker laminate and will probably be more...

It's been awhile since I've use a latex. BUT, are the heaters on and working properly? Check the material make sure there isn't a mistake and you got sent the wrong media. solvent on your lines.. Obviously your 1st response is to but another material in and see if it prints fine, if it...

SO.. I have an old AGFA M2.. It has been operational in 5 years and has been taking up valuable floor space. I finally got the go ahead to scrap it and take out any valuable components. SO what should I be grabbing? the obvious boards and electronics, I'll be grabbing the linear rail and the...

Window washers would be a red flag for me. Who knows what they are using for detergent/cleaner (but it's most likely reasonable) but I would also suggest to any store owner that the windows would be washed by hand with an appropriate cloth and not a large squeegee that might grab the sealed...

I took handles off a 2021 Stang.. the came off fine I couldn't for the life of me get them back on. Called the body shop across the street the sent over a Tech, he spent 2 hrs and left, they then sent over another older tech and it took him another 2 hrs. Just had a 2021 Yukon in.. 2 min...

You can't print vehicle wraps with a UV printer..

I just quoted $2000 to install a 53' trailer that was only 4' up in graphics, so maybe 50% coverage (this did include travel and hotels) But if I were to print and install the same trailer I'd be at 8K atleast. I don't do race to the bottom, Cheap bundle would be $800-1000. almost 2 per...

Only other thing that pops in my head is that the heater wasn't turned on and then got turned on.. Is the color shift consistent for the complete length of the panel?

Depends on the size of the sign. With the proper amount of stand offs you'd be fine it's more how the stand offs are mounted and what they are mounted to.

I'd charge your hourly rate plus any other expenses for removal. We charge $65/hr for a removal, plus additional fee for any excess material or shop supplies. You need you pay alittle extra attention to these types of situations because it's easy to use stronger solvents for an easier removal...

Full wraps partial wraps yes. Anything else goes out if it's in the way, if it's not it can stay in until the customer comes to pick it up.
