  1. quote on a printed vinyl

    PM me the specs, I'll be glad to give you a quote.
  2. Oracal ORAGUARD 210 vs 290

    210 is as glossy as 290. Just be aware it's a calendered intermediate-grade laminate, not a high-performance cast like the 290.
  3. Sub-Surface Graphics without a Flat Bed Printer?

    We do that regularly, but be aware, there is minimal UV protection with this method. If you want to get maximum fade resistance, print onto laminate instead of clear vinyl, or mount your clear print to laminate, and mount that to the acrylic.
  4. What the H#&& is this??!!?

    Try 3M's IJ180C-10 profile, 540x1080 6-pass unidirectional, heat set at 40/40/50. By far the best print quality we get on IJ180, at other resolutions (especially 720x720) we'd get a lot of weird defects in the prints, but at 540x1080 they're always flawless.
  5. price on ColorCam Pro?

    I sold one 7 years ago for $150, perfect condition and that price was hard to get...
  6. Summa or Graphtec

    I've had three graphtecs and 3 Summas. The reason I had 3 Graphtecs is because I sent one after another back, I'd had Summas before, thought I'd try something else since I'd heard good things about them, but tried three different ones and they were not up to the task, went back to Summa and have...
  7. Banner Rentals

    Bingo! You're right, it's not for a business. But that doesn't matter, assuming you are a business. The fact that a business isn't buying the banner should have zero bearing on the price you charge whatsoever. Your costs involved in producing the banner are not affected by the end user or the...
  8. Hello From NE Ohio

    Word from Dayton.
  9. Banner Rentals

    Phranc, what you're failing to take into consideration is the overhead cost of this job. Yeah, sure you've got 5 minutes in actually weeding the vinyl and applying it to the banner, what you're forgetting about, and what's critical, is the administration time. I can guarantee you will have way...
  10. Printing Multiple Page from AI to VW

    Just save the file as a .pdf, and open the .pdf in Versaworks. I don't have VW so I can't tell you beyond there, but Illustrator will export a perfect multi-page .pdf easily. If the conflict you are getting is with Versaworks not properly opening a multi-page .pdf, then rasterize the .pdf in...
  11. need resolution advice on wall wrap

    I assume you're running 64 bit windows? Is the file CMYK or RGB. If you're in CMYK and you're confident about your color management settings, convert to RGB, that'll reduce the size somewhat. And seriously, reduce the resolution to 75. There is no discernible difference between that and 100dpi...
  12. need resolution advice on wall wrap

    We ALWAYS do wallpaper and wall murals at 75ppi. Any more is overkill and is just a time and resource hog.
  13. No Human Contact Day

    haha, I saw this and just realized I've got a giant red flashing light on my phone telling me to pay attention to it... Been in meetings for a few hours, been one of those days...
  14. No Human Contact Day

    god I wish I could do that. I talk to dozens and dozens of people all day every day, it's all I do, so while I'm talking to someone I'm getting 2 or 3 voice mails and 2 or 3 emails. It's almost impossible sometimes for me to respond to all of the emails and voice messages I get in a day. When I...
  15. No turning back now...

    Man talk about jumping in with both feet! Exciting times for you, I wish you the best of luck! From what I've seen of your work posted here so far I suspect you'll do pretty good!
  16. GS6000 take-up

    Dunno how much it's worth or what it costs, they installed ours for free, but it's definitely worth "it", whatever "it" is. The flanges are minimally the problem, the weighted roller bar that drops down on the media is where the big improvement is.
  17. What is your weekend/2nd car?

    hehe... Full suspension (adjustable coilovers, adj. camber plates, adj. upper and lower rear control arms, adj. front and rear swaybars and endlinks, full urethane bushings), header-back exhaust, header, ported/polished intake manifold and supercharger, supercharger underdrive pulley...
  18. Direct Sign Wholesale Catalog

    Yup, I thought the same thing! I don't know who did theirs, but 4over has done similar jobs for us. They can do the spot UV like DSW used. It's a nice catalog that's for sure.
  19. New Building!!

    Looks killer, good job!
