  1. Anyone Making Water-Slde Decals?

    And yes you can make with gold and silver yourself just not the way he showed.
  2. Anyone Making Water-Slde Decals?

    Send me a PM if you don't find anything. They are very easy to make and you could easily figure it our yourself. It's just foils and heat laminator that he uses to make them.
  3. wholesale price for applying liquid laminate

    Do it for cost/free if you don't know what your time is worth. .20 sqft with 10% markup (because you can't control coverage levels perfect). and $50 for time for each sign would be my guess. So about $56 a sign. How long does it take to dry if I have to leave it in the middle of the...
  4. Anyone Making Water-Slde Decals?

    I have a buddy that makes water slides for his guitar pedals that he builds himself. How many decals are we talking about. I'm sure he would make some up for him. I just know he won't do a large quantity.
  5. Averege $/hr for wrapper in the US

    Worked in a wrap shop for a couple days( 2 days).. Every wrap employee was a per job basis. And all jobs payed a lump sum for completed work. Quit because the owners were cheap assess.
  6. Mac with designjet 5500 installation problem

    I used to use a UV protective clear acrylic spray paint on my canvas prints. Makes them nice and even gloss across. Easy. Dries in a couple hours.
  7. Which Show To Go To

    Never been to ISA. Went to SGIA this last October. It was amazing. Every vendor you could think about (except apple, they don't go to anything). It was a very cool show. A lot of very informative info. Check the lists to see who will be a vendor there. Make sure the ones you want to see...
  8. Which one would you get?

    There was a little chunk out of the very far edge of the roller. I didn't really think that was the problem as the laminating never really touched that area. But maybe that was what the skewing was from.
  9. edge quality on Latex 360

    We have been using 3M IJ35C and Grimcos IM3205 house vinyl with no issues. All profiles were downloaded from printer. And all of them print fine. we can print .25" letters and read them crystal clear. Not sure what the issue is with. Looked to me like the file was being rasterized to a like...
  10. Ultraflexx 18oz Blockout LTX on L360

    Or maybe even try sticking some liner on the foam pads and see if that would help.
  11. Ultraflexx 18oz Blockout LTX on L360

    Does the ink stick or is the banner sticking. I have had problems a couple years ago with key banner. We were trying to print too low on the passes. It was heating the material up so much that it was making it tacky. This was a L25500. Double heaters too much heat. Maybe you do need to up...
  12. Which one would you get?

    We had a royal sovereign cold laminator. Worked really well for most stuff. Would tend to skew a lot on coro. for some reason. Also could only do about 20 feet or so before I would have to reset everything. As long as your not doing long runs. Maybe only messed up 2 or 3 prints in a year...
  13. Ultraflexx 18oz Blockout LTX on L360

    Have you tried loading the platen inserts that come with the L360. There like two big foam pads with little L brackets on one side. You slide it it the printer so the prints don't get stuck on the bottom of platen when printing the second side.
  14. Making a sign look illuminated

    I like the animation one. It was pretty cool. But neither looks anything like it will in real life. And unless they just have absolutely no imagination, doesn't help the process at all.
  15. Maui Hawaii, Suggestions?

    Also there is this little like hole in the wall meat place. I believe they have two shops in maui but I can't remember the name. They marinate all their meat and you buy it and cook it. I know it's not what your thinking when you go to maui but if you have a bbq at the place your staying then...

  18. Maui Hawaii, Suggestions?

    It will take you a day to do the road to hana. But there are a lot of cool stops along the way. Go to local side of island and get bad looks all day long or go have some fun on the tourist side. Islanders don't like howlies.
