  1. Latex Fog

    +2 for this guy. This is exactly the technique we use. I just slide the bar from left to right. Come on people it's not that hard.
  2. Hp latex 360 printer

    There are a ton of posts on pros and cons of these printers. I personally love them, for the fast printing and drying. As well as the wide array of materials you can print on. As far as a deal your not going to really find one. HP has made it very hard for dealers to cut prices or sell demo...
  3. Vinyl Decal with small lettering

    Even if they wanted white text still this would be the best option. Print on clear. Apply White to the back. Reload on plotter and cut the contour out.
  4. L25500 Color Calibrations?

    Your L25500 does not have i1 photo spectrometer on board capabilities like your HP360 does. You can print the color charts and then check them with a standalone i1 photo spectrometer. The only way to do real color calibrations is to read your prints. So this would be your best option. And...
  5. Printing aluminum sign blanks with a flatbed

    Screen Print Durability using 3M products and 3M suggested screen inks is up to 10 years with screened inks. If you don't use compatible products then you are just asking for trouble.
  6. Printed design on a window that makes the window look cracked?

    +1 for white. That's really all you need is white.
  7. Outdoor multi unit retail sign with replaceable slots. Ideas?

    I have a question. Why is it "the Dolphin" and not "The Dolphin"?
  8. L25500 Bad Printhead?

    I would say sounds more like a contact issue. Have you cleaned all the contacts real good on the back of the print head and the back of the carriage where the print head touches? Slap a new one in there for a minute and see if it works? If a new one doesn't work it's most definitely a contact...
  9. New Gold Vinyl gone bad

    When I checked the website 651 Gold is a 6 year outdoor 10 year indoor film. This is a material failure if you ask me.
  10. What the Font is this one

    Thanks Fred. Wasn't expecting anything until Monday. Your the man. Goudy Old Style Bold
  11. What the Font is this one

    So close on so many different letters. CAn't nail the R in Hamner though. Plus some small variations in other letters. W has no serif on the far right.
  12. Alternative to Oraguard 210

    IJ35-10 is different then 35C
  13. Flexi Freeze when trying to print

    Dumb question probably but have you restarted the computer and network?
  14. Graphtec Cutting Pro FC5100-130 TEMPERAMENTAL ISSUES

    Not super familiar with the 5100. Page length settings are set to max? Have you tried resetting the plotter? Sometimes the RAM gets clogged up with bits and pieces that don't erase. A lot of issues with the graphtec are resloved by just simply resetting to factory defaults.
  15. Branding our vending machines...

    Yea that makes sense but were trying to understand why you are scoring the material? WHy not cut all the way through the vinyl the paper will hold it together for premask.
  16. Super Fancy Firetruck Lettering Font?

    J. Hill Designs if there was some sort of record for Font identification. You win.
  17. Friends with other sign shops, why the problem

    The price should still be at the same level with the work performed. They are doing no work to get those customers. If they were then their price would be less then the middle man. Quality of work would be the same and so they would win the job. He is bringing you work and you don't have to...
  18. April Fools?

    Besides the obvious defects from shipping. It looks to me like there is still a bunch of visible milling marks on the edges of the acrylic and looks like a smaller less experienced company probably handled the production.
  19. Graphtec 8600 registration off

    All you need to do is reset the plotter. There are issues sometimes where the graphtec buffer gets kinda backed up. I think it hits a weird spot in the coding somewhere where it just throws off the roll feed calibration. We have this issue every so often. Steps: Turn off Plotter Turn on...
  20. Designing to simulate window perf?

    Isn't this already more work then just ordering window perf and printing it on that. And if your just going to leave the dots black or white then what really is the point.
