  1. 3651 Clear for Pinball backglass

    I would be mounting it to glass which was originally silkscreened I believe. Honestly/Sorry I'm not positive what you mean by first/second surface. My only reason for asking is that I know that the 3651 clear will let some light through and probably get the job done (and I have a roll in...
  2. 3651 Clear for Pinball backglass

    Is using 3651 clear on a pinball machine backglass a bad idea?
  3. Garage Doors with inset panels

    Can anyone give me tips on how to install the big logo on the attachment. The glass panels are inset about an inch. Do I just measure it and cut it into pieces and then puzzle it back together onsite? I think that wrapping around the metal will distort the lettering too much. But cutting it...
  4. Favorite Intermediate Vinyl/Tape Combo

    Just curious what your favorite Vinyl/Tape combo was? I send a lot of stuff to customers to self install - small lettering/DOT Numbers etc. Typically I send them Oracal 651 with briteline tape (that I have applied via a laminator). My only concern with what I'm currently doing is that the 651...

  6. Equipment Panel - Screen Print Or Adhesive Vinyl?

    I have a customer who has had equipment panels (12"x24" ish - see attachment) screen printed in the past but their screen print guy quit and is curious about replicating this using vinyl (solid printed piece - maybe diecut the holes for the knobs). The panels aren't handled a great deal...
  7. Logo For Ice Rink

    Have a customer who is requesting a logo for an ice rink that get's placed under the ice. Says she believes it's "mesh". Can I just print their piece on mesh banner and call it good or is there something I don't know about? Appreciate it! Greg
  8. Trade Printer For Chrome/silver License Plates

  9. Material Id - Frosted / Opaque Film

    Can someone help me figuring out what material this is (see attachment). I have experience using oracal 8510 and this isn't it, this stuff is whiter. If it looks familiar to you I'd appreciate the help.

  12. Free Standing Display On Foamcore

    I'm creating a free standing display on 1/2" foamcore, it's going to be 38” x 87”. I'm curious if anyone has used the spider feet bases for this application and if so, size recommendations. Also if there are other options that might work better. Thanks, Greg
  13. Vehicle Striping Contour

    Hand Cut I wanted to have it pre-cut so that I could give it to the auto-body guy (he's an hour away) and have some confidence that they were going to get a good result and be happy with my work. I'm probably OCD... They ordered black ones from Ford as a alternative but the customer didn't...
  14. Vehicle Striping Contour

    I need to precut and match the edges of this stripe and send them to a body shop guy. Does anyone have any tips on recreating the curves at the seams? I use Illustrator. I suppose I could physically trace the edge of the door, scan it, vector it, bring that into the design, etc. Didn't know...
  15. Opinion on Static Elimination Thing...

    Kit I ended up buying the stop static kit online. Should have returned it because it didn't resolve the issue, it may have decreased the overspray/tracks/static a little but not much. I'm one man show and haven't really had time to mess with sending it back. Manufacturer contacted me several...
  16. US MH Cutter

    Vinyl Are the brands of the vinyl the same? I've found that the house brand vinyls don't typically cut/weed near as good as orafol, avery, etc. I've got several house brand rolls here that I'll only use on jobs with 0 detail and even then they are a pain in the ***. Another thing, once that...
  17. Samples / Proofs

    Yep! Yep, that was a lesson learned in this quote... I had some stuff on a shelf that I sent them. Their original concern was that the previous vendor's stuff wasn't durable/thick enough. I sent them some stuff that was laminated, one matte/one gloss to show give an example thickness/mil...
  18. Samples / Proofs

    Thanks Thanks all, appreciate the input. Not trying to be lazy, and it may lead to a good order. I just don't have tons of faith in the customer. I'll suck it up and do them. Thanks again! Greg
  19. Samples / Proofs

    Would anyone do samples / proofs of a specific job in order to try to get business? Or would you tell them that you would be happy to do / encourage doing a proof once the order was placed? It's a decal job...
