  1. Clear cling with clear liner

    Hello all. I need to source a clear static cling material that has a clear liner. FYI, I am latex printing reverse reading and backing it up with a with vinyl backer. The liner needs to be clear so I can run it through an XY cutter.
  2. War Eagle from Auburn Alabama!

    Welcome to the forum. I only have one more thing to say.... ROLL TIDE!
  3. Color Matching equipment?

    Although I do not think you are talking specifically about color management, you will need to have a good system in place to even hope to take field color measurements back to the shop. Even then, I would not rely entirely on numeric values from a portable device. You will not eliminate the need...
  4. Heat bending equipment supplier needed

    I need a recommendation a manufacturer for heat bending solutions? I am looking to either go with a turn key machine or build my own jig using heating tape. Is there a company out there that stands out as better for sign pros than the others?

  7. New Work Table

    Very nice. What are you planning to use for the table tops? I like Stanton's 2x6 idea. What are your costs on this?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_deadly_sins Here is a nice little excerpt:In almost every list, pride (Latin, superbia), or hubris (Greek), is considered the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins, and the source of the others. It is identified as believing that one is...
  9. Large Wall Mural

    The best solution would be to remove the wallpaper, print and install new wallpaper. The better wallpaper pastes crystalize once dry and remove cleanly.
  10. recommended adhesive for mitered acrylic

    Thanks as always guys. I want a slower set time so I think I will get the #4 and #16 and see which works best for me.
  11. recommended adhesive for mitered acrylic

    A client wants me to product some digitally printed signs with 2" deep returns on the side. We are shooting for a acrylic gallery wrap so to speak. I have a good idea on the process but not really sure what type of adhesive will bond .25" miters and dry clear. Any suggestions?
  12. Optically Centered?

    The rule of thumb for optically centering a photograph in matte I learned in school was to use absolute center for the left and right and to nudge the center point up 1/10th of half the height. For example, the optical center of a 20"x16" layout would be 10" from either the left or right and...
  13. What's your preferred double sided banner product?

    Fabric is not an option. When these jobs come in, the turn times are real tight. The client will give me whatever I say I can handle. I need a reliable product I can run all out without having to worry about media defects.
  14. What's your preferred double sided banner product?

    Double sided trade show banners. I use 38" up to 126" widths.
  15. What's your preferred double sided banner product?

    I am having some issues with my current double sided banner. There is nothing worse than a hickey or a streak in a double sided banner caused by media. I seem to be getting a log of these mediocre rolls lately and I am losing work because I need to factor in reprints. I am looking for a 15 to 18...
  16. Strange Issue on LX3000

    No problems whatsoever. The Orlando Grimco has handled the situation excellently.
  17. Strange Issue on LX3000

    Turned out to be the media. Really tough luck. 3 rolls of 60 yard media gave us the same problem but we have had no issues whatsoever with 30 yard rolls. Strange.
  18. Strange Issue on LX3000

    Hello all. We are running a wallpaper job on our new latex printer where we encounter a mottling problem halfway through each panel. We just got off the phone with the HP tech who was little to no help. I thought I would run this issue by everyone here. I have attached photos of a sample image...
  19. Suggestions for large scraps of lightweight banner vinyl?

    I posted an add in craigslist in the "Free Stuff" section. The response was insane. I had three or four upholstery guys, people making tarps and a number of students for painting and photo backdrops. No money was made but nothing went in the trash.
  20. My jobs are evolving!!!

    You probably need to enter a media compensation for that material. Your X axis is dead on and that is typical for inkjets whereas your Y axis is off which is also typical for inkjets.
