  10. Bubbles in 5600 reflective

    I can see ghosting from where old vinyl was removed so it's obvious that its nothing to do with the plastic tank or paint. Were the bubbles in curved/straight lines, you may not have overlapped squeegee swipes properly or your squeegee has nicks in the blade. Try resharpening or use a new one.

    I apply with squeegee and it tunnels every time regardless of how much pressure I use....haven't tried the "upside down" approach. I find it squeegees down ok, but left on the bench for a couple of hours and it's tunneled, which I think is the mask pulling back after stretching while...

    I have never had a problem with the GX cutting 10 to 15foot long, just recently cut 8 stripes 12' x 1/2" and all were perfect.
