barf. but the client is always right. if that what they want thats what they get.

this dont make any sense. you say no acrylic because it scratches. but vinyl is ok? vinyl is worse than acrylic. do a second surface print on polycarbonate? marabu waterbased and you think that will hold up to the abuse a table gets? peoples elbows/arms will wear off the coating especially...

buy a laminator. short of that figure out a way to warm up both items. could also be the lam you are using.

5 years on our GS6000 and it doesn't stop. prints day and night unattended full rolls. a beast. $270 for ink? buy a full set and your price should drop to $245.00.

vinyl table top will always have a durability issue. vinyl will always scuff or tear and wear with time regardless if you get a laminate to stick.

use it or lose it applies here.

have you checked the electricity going in to the machine to make sure there is no fluctuation in voltage? opps sorry i just noticed the previous poster mentioned it.

Me being a wrapper and also design graphics it is hard for the regular Joe to understand how difficult it is to do the hood on that pickup truck. Your measurements must be perfect and the install must be perfect for the rust to line up with the ridges in the hood perfectly. Very hard. Very Nice.

Rust is not supposed to shine like gloss paint. A matte lam would have been a better fit.

thats not a hummer H1? the H1 doesn't have corners like that. Do you mean the H2 hummer? heat and pull the vinyl up and out at a 45' angle until the ripple disappears.

haha good one OldPaint. lol.

this thread is stupid. if a client wants a stupid sign on a stupid truck. give him a stupid sign and take his stupid money. if he trashes his stupid sign his stupid azz will be back to give you more stupid money. not sure why everyone is preaching. My stupid suggestion is to bolt a stupid...

correct. slow it down. use a bit more pressure. also tighten the feeder laminate roll so it puts a bit more tension on the lam before it hits the prints. a little bit of heat helps also. not too much though as you dont want to pre-stretch your lam and have curly prints.

try changing your up and down setting on the perf. make it a tighter "micro perf" and slow down the cutter speed.

a photo would help understand your situation.

Broker everything out until you build up a steady client base to support your projected overhead.

silver as in chrome or silver as in a grey metallic? chrome laminated will end up grey and lose it's "bling" effect.

RV decal removal will be a huge PITA!!! Tell him if he wants to save some money to get a heat gun some plastic scrapers and scoop up a couple day laborers from the home depot parking lot to get it done cheap. I would never put a fixed amount on removals.

big ben - you might be better off ordering your PVC from a plastics shop where they have a flatbed cutter router. then just order the PVC already cut. this way you dont have to invest in a cutter for just one client.

blades and straight edges? yeah if its a few. If you have 300- 96x48 sheets to cut down to 2x2. hand cutting each one probably isnt the best approach. hes probably stacking 5 sheets in the cutter. use low tack transfer tape on the top one so it doesn't get scratched. only where the blade...
