  2. How often is your flatbed or other equipment down?

    our CET has never been "Down" where it is not operational but it has never printed up to our standards or the standards we were sold... ive spent more time working on the machine with it torn apart, on the phone with tech or fighting issues than we have spent time making money with it and we...
  3. Need Vendor for routed PVC and HDU signs

    I've had Jim from synergy sign quote some stuff for us, unfortunately we have never had a customer pull the trigger. The work they do is amazing and i know they are a member on here.
  4. Which brand of printable wrap vinyl do you prefer and/or avoid? 3M, Orajet, Arlon?

    Oracal 3751RA - it is a little less installer friendly in that the adhesive is a lot more aggressive on the initial tac, but once we got used to it its fine.
  5. our new website

    i like everything except the background, because the background image is a set image size i get hard lines where the image starts and stops. But besides that i think it is pretty neat.:thumb:
  6. bug guts, how to remove?

    Bug and tar remover from a local auto parts store? We have also used a clay bar before (but that only works if you know how to do it and make sure you bill it in)
  7. Just completed

    Looks awesome! :thumb:
  8. Got a color swatch deck from Fellers lately?

    We went to the NBM Show/ WrapCon in Iindy and only Oracal was giving away color charts, we were flat out denied charts by Avery and 3M. Its hard to sell a product to customers when we cant show it to them. I have no problem paying for color books, i just wish they made the updated swatches...
  9. Screen printing coroplast signs.

    We used to screen print a ton of yard signs in house, now we just use the flat bed printer we bought. If you are going to do them yourself, get or make a vacuum table. A simple box with holes drilled in it will work and fasten your screen to that, make a jig so everything is square and lined...
  10. Mimaki ends relationship with Grimco

    we have been getting our mimaki inks from North Light Color or midwest sign recently.
  11. CET issues all over again - what do I do - am I crazy? Horrible print quality?

    We were never told of this when we bought our CET, that is interesting.
  12. Good media for retractable banners

    We also use the Ultraflex SSPET Blockout, since we switched to that our customers have reacted very positively and the final product looks amazing.
  13. how is business?

    We are swamped. I had exceeded last years vehicle graphic install count by the first of April. Signs, Vehicles and banners are all up for us. Our screen printing is steady. But our "Paper Printing" (business cards and forms) is slow (or our new guy is just highly efficient compared to the person...
  14. Sign I just did!

    Looks great. You really made the MDO look nice. :thumb: my only wish is that the mounting hardware was painted white so it didn't stick out so much.
  15. Just gotta rant...

    We get walk-ins all the time who end up complaining about our price compared to our local lowballer, and in the same breath complain about the lowballers quality... Walk-ins are the entertainment of the day...
  16. Work Order / Job Flow Software or Process, what do you do?

    Small shop here, just the owner and 3 employees. We use a combination of excel spreadsheet on google docs and hard job sheets. Everyone can have the spreadsheet open and update live on their own work stations. We do more than just signs and vehicles so we have a section for printing (business...

    Got it done, thanks everyone for the help.
  18. anyone with CC, Can you save a file down?

    We had CC demo for a month when one of our production computers went down, once it was back the boss decided not to keep CC and just re-load our CS6, i thought i had gone and saved all of the files down but apparently missed one. Went to open it this AM for a rush job and cant. Anyone with CC...
