  1. Grey Adhesive vs Clear Adhesive.. why use one over the other?

    I figured! Thanks for confirming this :)
  2. Grey Adhesive vs Clear Adhesive.. why use one over the other?

    I'm looking at ordering some basic Orafol 3640 Vinyl. I see the 3641 and the only difference is the Grey adhesive. Is there a difference? I'm assuming the brightness of the white might be slightly affected. But is there a reason why one would prefer the grey over the clear? Is the grey better...

  5. Is it possible to cover up hole in Aluminum real estate sign?

    Hi! I made some real estate signs for a Realtor and realized I drilled the holes in the wrong area. :eek: I was supposed to make the holes 4 inches from the edge and I made them 1 inch instead. I can drill the new holes 4 inches away, but is there any way to coverup the previous ones I made by...
  6. Recommended hole punch for 040 aluminum blanks

    Awesome thanks! Just ordered it, gets here overnight. We'll see how it goes!
  7. White Spots in black prints

    Thanks everyone for the help! It appears you were correct on the media contamination. I tried the alcohol as dypinc mentioned, and seemed to be the issue. I bought this from GSG and they reached out to Orafol and they're overnighting a new roll today and requested that I send this current roll...
  8. Recommended hole punch for 040 aluminum blanks

    Hey! I know this is an old comment, but how has this punch held up? Would you happen to have a link to it on the Harbor Freight site? Or maybe a photo? Thanks in advanced!
  9. White Spots in black prints

    Hey Everyone! I’m having some trouble when I’m printing heavy ink prints such as an ALL black background. I notice a lot of white spots, they almost look like they’re glowing or fading on the print. It’s almost like little white “orbs” on my all black prints. Some spots I can tell are because of...
  10. Real Estate Signs... Aluminum or ACM?

    Thanks southpaw! Which vendor do you recommend for the pre-punched blanks? None of my TX vendors provide them, that I'm aware of at least.
  11. Real Estate Signs... Aluminum or ACM?

    Thanks man, I appreciate the insight. I've just been pushing the aluminum on them. Is there a specific type of grommet I should use for ACM? I've only ever grommeted coro and banners, so I'm assuming the same grommets work for ACM?
  12. Real Estate Signs... Aluminum or ACM?

    I was at the ISA show this year and there was a vendor that had this punch press that punched through ACM like BUTTER. It had a hole die and a corner rounding die. It was a little out of my budget since I'm just starting, but after doing so many signs, it is looking like a really good...
  13. Real Estate Signs... Aluminum or ACM?

    This would be awesome! Do you have a resource where I could order these? I get my alum blanks from GSG, but they don't have them pre-punched, nor the ACM panels.
  14. Real Estate Signs... Aluminum or ACM?

    Hey Everyone, I'm looking to make some real estate signs for some Realtor clients of mine. They are wanting the hanging sign panels for their posts. I've usually printed them on the .040 Aluminum blanks, but recently someone mentioned ACM panels. Is one recommended over the other? If so, Why...
  15. How fancy do I need? (Xrite i1, Spyder or ??) FB700/Roland XR640

    I was planning on purchasing an i1 Pro 2 Basic. I just need color profiles for a used Mutoh VJ . I'm just getting started. Do y'all feel The Pro 2 would work as well? Found one at $475

    Thanks so much for the details answer! Definitely answered my doubts. I reached out to Leisa today. I'll update this post once I get a response from her. Thank you :)
  17. Any one here ever used a Signwarehouse Muse60 plotter?

    Great idea on your catch basket! 2 questions for you; 1) Are you able to do a perf cut to cut all the way through the decals and liner with this cutter? 2) Would you mind sharing the details on how you made the basket? Haha thanks!
