  1. What software do you have to your cutter? I need to find a new one

    I use Vinyl master XPT which you can use to design for cut or print. There is a Pro version for design and cutting only.....none of their software uses a dongle and their tech support is fantastic. http://www.vinylmasterseries.com/en/products.html#
  2. How can I remove this? Weathered Alumalite Wrap

    Wonder if a MBX would take it off. On another note, the sheets we get here have printed on the protective layer to remove said protective layer before installing. I don't reuse any probond/coreflute signs, I quote them dearer to reuse than make a new one.
  3. Question: How to mask out grooved areas for paint?

    Just had a thought, I wonder if you could use plastersine (kids stuff) and push it in there, would come out easy enough. That sign needs a really good sand, you can see the outline of the swan.

  5. Question: How to mask out grooved areas for paint?

    Not sure how it would go on routed letters, but you can buy liquid mask and peel off afterwards. Can't think of the name of it, but we used it in a panel shop to mask over stuff we wanted to keep on motorbike tanks etc while spraying the rest, also used for airbrushing.....Google brings up a few.
  6. 1005 Supercast Easy Apply RS

    Pistol we never experienced the problems the Sates had with US made Avery as our Avery vinyl comes from Europe. I once worked for one of the largest corporations in Australia and was always told not to admit "guilt or fault"...let the lawyers sort it out, I would say that Avery may have used...

  11. Hanging Dibond need fix for cleaner holes

    Don't know where you get them in the States, but have a look at page 12, these look neat and work well with Dibond/Probond up to 8mm thick.... no drilling holes either, but can if you want. http://www.cphgraphicsupplies.com.au/pdfs/cph_cat_InnovativeSignage.pdf
  12. Whatya think?

    Nope...Century Gothic as typed with tight kerning. Don't even have Futura installed on my computer atm. Had to find it to compare.
  13. Whatya think?

    The ss are stretched to high in both and the black looks a bit dark with the rest of the design colors, what about grey? In the first one I would make the top & bottom text wider than the SS as it all looks too narrow. Maybe point the tip of the ss in the middle of the heart and make the...

  16. Deadbeat Customer

    Same here Andy, if I went to the cops and said Joe Bloggs just bounced a cheque on me they wouldn't give a crap, laugh and say "tell someone who cares".....I don't accept cheques unless I know the person really well as it's near impossible to get the money if it bounces.
  17. Homemade Application Fluid??

    I don't do very many wet installs (because I hate it), so I don't spend money on app fluids and make my own. I use about a dozen drops of Johnsons "no more tears" baby shampoo, 1 cap of Metho and 1 litre water. Metho helps with the evaporation. Another signwriter I know uses windex for all wet...

  20. How long to cure fresh paint before applying vinyl?

    I do all the work for local panel shops here and if the paint is 2k and has been oven baked you can apply vinyl straight after its cooled down. NEVER had a problem. If your worried at all, wait for a day. Backyard paint jobs are a whole different story.
