I don't often post, but I'm right in the middle of working with a small business that's adding wide format to their services, and even with an existing customer base, it hasn't been an easy decision to make. I don't want to discourage anyone from wanting their own business, but I fully agree...

With the little bit of information you've given, it's almost impossible to recommend something. Like someone else mentioned, you'll also need other equipment, software, tools, tables, etc., so you need to know what your whole budget is and balance it among all the expenses. Also, since you...

I'm not as experienced in this as many of the other people here, but my opinion would be that if all you're doing is labels, you're better off adding another roll-fed cutter than upgrading to a flatbed. We currently have a CET flatbed printer as well as two roll fed printers and have been...

Someone else mentioned something from Keencut, but if you're doing a lot of Coro, foamboard, styrene, pvc, etc., I'd recommend this http://www.keencut.com/uk/products/cutter-bars/evolution.aspx It was the best equipment investment we ever made-we have two of them now, both long enough to cut a...

One other good area is to talk to small to midsize offset printers in your area and put together some samples for their salespeople of the types of work you do. I switched from the offset print world to digital a few years ago and just through salespeople I used to work with I get a steady...

threeputt, The material that you're looking at is G-floor. I know around here, Midwest Sign and Screen carries it, so check with your suppliers. We have rolls of 4 different finishes here, and the one recommendation I'd make is that you go with the levant finish-it's got a slight "woodgrain"...

Thanks to all I'm glad I asked the question here, because I never would have thought to have looked at a liquid laminate. Even if I don't get this job, I'm going to order a small can and practice with it. Thanks to all for the quick and helpful responses!!

I've got a quote request for some 12x18 .040 painted aluminum signs that the customer also is requesting "UV Gloss Laminate". I've printed the signs before on our flatbed, but we're new to the laminating end of things, so I was wondering what might be commonly used here at a reasonable price...
