What static cling media do you recommend to print on? We have an Epson 80600 solvent ink printer/ Grimco carries 3 or 4 different brands with very similar specs. If someone can recommend one, it would help.
Does window perf look the same in the evening when it's dark out and there are lights on inside a building? A customer wants to use perf for an office window to add privacy at night. I don't want to do the installation and find out it doesn't work at night.
Does anyone know a source for a sign post as shown in the attached photo?
It's a steel post, filled with concrete with a traffic sign post set in the concrete.
I know where to get the parts but was looking for a ready to install solution.
I have a client looking for a directory for a medical center and likes one they saw online. (Sound familiar?)
Does anyone know where to buy the hardware required to make a directory like the one in the attached photo?
Does removable vinyl adhere as well as permanent vinyl? Is 3M 680 a better choice the Oracal 5600?
We've been using Oracal 5600 reflective vinyl for lettering street signs in a large development for about four years. Lately we've had to replace ten panels because the vinyl was failing. It was...
Will vinyl adhere properly to AwlCare by AwlGrip?
It's a polymer that sounds like a wax for AwlGrip. I have to travel to install vinyl lettering on a boat with this applied on Wednesday morning and have to ask it to be removed tomorrow if it's a problem.
I did a boat last week where the vinyl...
These are the only photos I have and they're pretty tough to run through software.
The break in the R is pretty distinctive (and rare). I can't tell if it was an inline from the outer shape or a font that has an open R
Anyone recognize this font?
In the middle of a print, our Gerber Edge II started misprinting, leaving streaks all up and down the print area. (see photo attached.)
It was printing 100% then in at a certain point it misprinted about 50%.
It fails with all foils and all vinyls.
I checked all the physical wiring...
Believe it or not, I own this font and did this boat, but can't access it anymore or remember the font name.
I'm sure it's a Letterhead Font.
ID please?
We do a fair amount of high end work that includes dimensional letters, which we very often buy from Gemini.
Is anyone (everyone?) finding the quality of their mounting patterns is not up to speed?
We have no complaint with the quality of the letters, but are tired of dealing with poorly...
Does anyone make a sail flag (tall, rectangular 15' high) that doesn't spin? A client wants to use them as directional signs, so they can't be allowed to spin (or they'd be pointing the wrong way at times).
Does anyone have a source for these? I know the engineering is much more difficult...
We've designed a sign for which we must build a "barn" door made of tongue and groove boards, on which we intend to paint a rooster and apply dimensional letters. It is shown in the attached illustration.
We've never painted anything this large and are looking for advice on how best to...
Does anyone know to get a professional quality version of this font?
OPTI Dianna Bold
Diana Script Agency Bold
Whenever we show this among a selection of fonts, our customers (mostly for boats) choose it.
But the quality of those two fonts for cutting is terrible. They're full of...
We have a job that would look best using Gerber Gold Medal foil.
It's going on a sculpture as an art installation (a 3D lobster actually) sponsored by the local Chamber of Commerce. They are planning to clear coat all the lobsters before installing them throughout town. I'll probably never...
We are gilding a lot (about 100) formed or injection molded letters from Gemini with 23k Italian Gold Leaf Patent.
Gemini clear coats them when they apply the gold.
Because we are too busy to gild them ourselves, we asked a number of subcontractors to quote doing so.
Some insist they...
Who would you call to pick up and dispose of obsolete wide format printers?
We have a 54" Roland water based print/cut machine and a 60" HP solvent printer that are taking up space.
I thought someone would take at least one of them off our hands because the roland cutter still works fine...
