It's in support of Eric Garner. The guy that was suffocated by 5 cops, while they were doing it he kept telling them "I can't breathe". Later he died from what they did to him.

That's just as good an option I think. Convert an old holder to hold a roller blade wheel. Just pick up an extra at sport chalet or wherever you have. Probably get 4 for half the price as one tool.

It looks to me like those are probably pressure fit. non replacable.

You mean like this. 3M makes several different rollers. Not all of them have replaceable parts. Some you just have to buy new. http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Graphics/3Mgraphics/ProductsGPIM/Products/~/3M-Installation-Tools?N=5786+8697840+3294529207+4294929452&rt=rud

No issues here. Sounds like it's a computer thing. Maybe you updated the wrong virus software or something. Seems like people always have connection issues after virus updates. Or maybe the current virus program you have didn't like he update for Flexi

Magic wand tool to select the background color. Then go to bitmap>make transparent.

I know if the signs are directional signs for traffic that state if a business is open or closed during construction or something like that. They have the right to tell you you can't use logos. and you have to use Highway Fonts and standardized designs.

I'm going to test the theory of more ink more durability. (I'm assuming as long as you get it to dry.) I print 4 color k. Since 90% of what I print is black. It's better to spread the usage across the cartridges.

These signs get used daily by traffic control techs. The guys setting up lane closures. They get tossed in the back of the truck and then off to the next closure. After a week or two we sand and resheet them. I just need the print to stay enough that a finger nail doesn't take it off. These...

I assume it has to do with the coating only wanting to adhere to solvent based inks. Either screen or printed. But I have used said material before with latex inks (granted they were the first gen. inks) and had no problems. Does nobody else print latex on 3M EG 3290

This company is in your neck of the woods it looks like. http://www.hansonsign.com/panSmooth.html

Price- these signs last a week or two in the field laminated or not. If the ink adheres properly. These signs are going on Traffic Control Trucks for the guys setting up lane closures. Laminatig everyone seems like waste of material. But maybe not if I can't get it to adhere.

It's 3M 3290 I understand it's for screenprint. I used to run the same material on the L25500 at my old shop with no problems. But now they take away the dryer and add opitimzer and it just won't stick.

I don't have a flatbed printer. Did it say that in my post? This is a HP Latex 360. I'm printing roll to roll and then sheet aluminum.

I can tell the customers that but the second I finish these signs they have to go out on our work trucks for use. There should be a way to get it to adhere better then it is right now. I know not everyones profiling will work in my shop. But I am looking for somebody that is getting the...

haha yea that would be beneficial. But these are Traffic control signs. For the field guys. All the aluminum gets put face to face on the trucks. I know they will scratch but I replace these sign every two to three weeks. So laminating is a waste. I just need it to adhere better.

So I am trying to print to on a 3M Engineer Grade White Reflective. Everything is drying completely, the prints look good, I take to warehouse to stick on the aluminum and when I try to scratch with fingernail after the ink is coming off really easy. Anyone have some ideas. I can give all...

I know someone posted a thread like this maybe 2 weeks ago do a search for scratch and sniff. http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?120958-Scratch-amp-Sniff&highlight=scratch+sniff

This was very informative. They did a lot of good testing. I always see people ask about paint and vinyl. Well here you go. Nice that they released the video.

That's what my vote would be for ^^^^ Paint is going to come off after awhile on that, and you will see shading where the old copy is. Vinyl would be a pain and you would also see ghosting of the old copy underneath. Replace. Or give them the print and have them install.
