Over the last year and a half we have had a competitor move in our area and under cut all our work to the point were their prices were cheaper than what I could buy the materials! I have stuck to my prices and lost quiet a few so called "loyal customers" who have been given a lot of freebies and...

Your never gonna win cheapness always wins. Most of the time the ones doing the cheap crappy wraps will have no come backs as the customer thinks "it was cheap anyway"!! If you sat your customer down in front of their vehicle whilst you wrapped it, they would understand the costs of a quality...

I can change the heads myself not a problem. Just the cost of new heads is scary especially if their is other faults and this is just a glitch. I don't understand "What do you have into it now?"

Last year we got a JV3-160S as a back up to our other machines. When it arrived it had blocked heads, blocked pumps, etc. etc. and had lain inactive a lot longer than the seller had made out. I decided I was going to have a play with this machine and get it into some sort of state so as to get a...

That van isn't too bad to letter. We don't get that vehicle in the UK but it doesn't look as bad as some. Try lettering the New Ford Transit Custom!!!! I have never come across a van that was so awful to put two straight lines on. What was Ford thinking? It is as if the only way to sign the...

The windscreens (windshields) are really curved on these cars and they are a pain to template. This will have to be cut specially using the actual car as a template. Either that or you are going to have to get the customer to do some really precise measurements. I have done a few but I can't...

My answer to this is "Move on". Over the years I have made exactly the same mistake countless times and it hurts a lot. Only consollation is that some times the client realises that cheapest is not always the best (or sometimes even cheapest). Take the the job sheet and file it away carefully...

Hi all I hope someone can clear this up. My RIP computer has died and I am having to quickly buy a new one from a supplier today and have up and running tonight. The issue is all the latest PCs have Windows 8 / 8.1 installed. Is Wasatch 6.2 compatible with this Operating System or will I face...

Our standard mutoh print head ran on our VJ1604 for about 5 years. I don't know whether it was the head or the head cable that failed but both were replaced. The biggest issue is that when either of these items fails it can blow the F2 fuse but if that is not fast it can fry the motherboard (I...

Head soak:- move the head of the capping station, get a couple of pieces of lint free cloth roughly the size of the capping pad. Soak the cloth in solvent cleaning solution or the solution in the cleaning cartridges and move the head back over it. The amount of time you leave it can vary, I...
