My state is a right to work state. Non competes aren't worth the paper they are written on. All it is good for is to stop a previous employee from going directly after clients they personally serviced. Normally 2 years. Pest control companies are big on non competes. If they are not involved in...

Put a weed border around lines of text with a cut being horizontal at halfway thru the letters. Then weed top half, bottom half. Helps with smaller text. I normally rip weed small stuff off of my graphtec. My wife simply can't do it from fear, lol. It is either cut right or it isn't.

If someone told me to slice up a mesh banner period I would walk. You are the professional, they know nothing about it other than what they want right or wrong.

I've got an old 26" big squeegee that kills wall murals in a quickie. Have even used a 54 here and there. After that initial app I go with 12 and 6" wrapping squeegees.

Stack them before the ink is dry after printing, you'll never get them apart, lol

How many times has your printer gagged and ruined a few feet of film or banner? Feel like painting the wall again if it goes mental?

Agreed, that was my first thought, a sprayer full of water adjusted ti fine mist.

Yep, that's the one. She made the same assumption you did about that on a Harley breather cover. It's the company logo that makes them. For the record the first time I saw it I thought the same thing, nazi garbage. That I have turned down in the past. This was close until I took the time to...

I haven't come across to many that I turned down, but a few. It's your call. I have never put a political sign in front of my shop even if the candidate were someone I was voting for because I print for any candidate and need to appear impartial. I did have an embroiderer once who refuse to put...

I think so too, but I also think the decision is best made with hands on and not from the ground. Nothing wrong with servicing signs, but there definitely are some doozies out there. There is one down the road from us that the plaza owner knows better than to call me to service. Next person to...

Uncle Bun hit it. I'm betting the rapid tac is a no no.

Not see thru for backlit but my galvanized tops are over 20 years old and doing just fine. Plus is that magnet will stick to it.

Way back before squirty jets, I used krylon on vinyl to make fades before cutting. The keytones made it adhere really well. But as you said, a little at a time or the properties that make the paint stick to the vinyl can ruin it if applied too liberally. Another trick was to spatter vinyl with...

Never even thought about it, I just set parameters on cutter. Pretty much only use two settings these days.

Same way you eat an elephant, one piece at a time ;-)

Took 5 months to get panela sugar for my distillery out of S America. Between shipping and labor strike it put us at a standstill for a bit.

Dress nice but safe, put non slip carpet runner down if you absolutely have to stand on counter. I was always taught to put your best foot forward when in front of a customer. Brush your hair, check your breath, fresh shave, etc. Shows and gets respect. I would never go to an install dressed...

For me it's just experience and the ability to see a straight line where others cannot. My wife has to measure every little thing after 20 years still. Leave heat off, go thru motions of placing shirt on platen and placing the graphic on shirt. Remove from press with graphic still applied to...

Don't really know, only said Arlon on backer, no other id. It was air egress, sort of.
