or better yet, offer a lifetime warranty. Do the sign our of Stainless Steel or cast Bronze. When they baulk at the price offer a "budget" friendly version that has a multi-year life span

don't forget a laminator to apply film to the wrap jobs

+1 for the flat bed laminator. If that is not in the budget or spacing, then a wet stick is the next best option for bubble free

There are MANY threads already debating this exact topic You will need several more pieces of equipment to go along with a printer Printers for the most part are designed to constantly being used, and when they are left idle issues can arise. it may be more to your advantage to find a good...

IMO no, we had 3 projects where the IJ35 vinyl separated from the adhesive. This was all with different rolls / Lot numbers so we are dedicated to Oracal.

no only are competitors driving the cost lower and lower each and every day, you also have to worry about vendors undercutting you and selling directly to the public at prices lower than what you can get the material for. http://www.cheetahwrap.com/about-cheetah-wrap/ THANKS FELLERS!!!!!!!!!!!

if you use ANY cal lam it will be foggy, the only lam you can use is optically clear. and even then it still has some haze to it. UN-laminated is the only way to have clear visibility

+1 think of the last movie / TV show where they had an interview room and observation room. The observation is ALWAYS DARK This is ONLY way to achieve one way visibility. yes the 1st customer should have been done on frosted vinyl

same question, most of our dealers are also in the 400 range also for a 4 x 4 x 1/8 x 24' delivered

true, but it was the closest thing I had to work with for 2 parts just finished an order for Yeti coolers lettering I have cooler under my desk ready for beer thirty :toasting:

because they have a different energy level at the surface. take a piece of vinyl and try to stick it to an ice chest ( plastic cooler) and see how that works. these low energy surfaces MUST have a high tack adhesive

They are running another deal, for those not on their mailing list https://www.inkydeals.com/deal/fontpack-pro-master-collection-2015/

we always match the grommet to the press, we have a hiker and get the grommets from Reece. the hiker grommets are always same price or cheaper than the 3rd party ones
