For large helmet orders, I would look into hydro-dipping. I don't have experience with it, but just saw it at a trade show and it does a professional job. Unless you are just sticking numbers or simple decals on a helmet, that would be the way to go. At least it deserves a look. I understand you...

Check the weather! I almost never work outside but we are in Maryland, not far from you and the weather has been grand recently... If you want to drive the truck to Maryland, we'll rent our shop to you over the weekend. 18 foot high door, 80 feet long (50 useable).

...And I just commented on a five year old thread.

There are a lot of easier and safer ways to earn $500 a day slinging vinyl...Unless you plan to charge $5,000 a day to remove it. Run! This can't end well.

The Daily Telegraph, in its early days, was owned by a Jewish man, a printer named Joseph Moses Levy. Today, it's owned by a bank (though which one is in dispute), and one of those banks is/are apparently shopping it around...Anyway, I don't even like climbing ladders anymore, much less hanging...

Got it. Embossed. Per above. Clean well. Use adhesive accelerant and/or heat as necessary.

Or...Re-Wrap. Remove the SUPER DUTY badge carefully, along with any other badges...But don't clean the adhesive...at least not well. Re-wrap the hood. Apply the badge over the old adhesive with two-sided tape. (That 3M VHB stuff or equivalent.) Or just remove SUPER DUTY, clean the remaining...

So you wrapped the hood using the super thin stuff (with soapy water I imagine) and it came out ok?! I think you are a better wrapper than you know! You'll be fine with dry applied Avery SW900, though that running board will be a pain to get around.

I'd like to know exactly how the magnet dented the door. It doesn't seem likely be there it is. Don't want to repeat the faux pas in my shop.

We've moved couple of Rolands. An SP and a VS. We locked the head with the little blue plate. I don't remember the procedure. But in both cases, the printers, for whatever reason, didn't work very well for the first several prints. My advice, if you experience the same thing, is don't panic...

They own the wrap or decals that you put on the vehicle after they paid for it. That's it. In my opinion, you should spell it out. Unless you made a previous agreement and/or they paid extra for it, you own the wrap design and the digital design panels that you used to run your printer. It...

The really silly answer is don't laminate longer than eight...or 10 feet. We laminate off of a table, as it appears you are doing. What we have found is that if you go longer than 10 feet and are even slightly crooked, the weight of the material pulls on the laminate and bad things happen. Our...

It's strange your USTech won't laminate the 30" vinyl. Our 54" USTech won't do anything past 30" without bubbles, so we keep it loaded only for the shorter rolls. If I'm not mistaken, this was a common problem... My rambling aside, we replaced the USTech with a 60" Dmais about three years ago...

We just put some lettering on an older painted wood truck rear door - some of which is curling. Plan is to smooth it down and spray clear lacquer over the lettering - which has worked in the past.

You might need a firmware update. I think that means an update to the machine, but it could be to Versaworks as we have done both. Forgive me for being a bit vague. We had this problem several years ago and our local tech pointed us to the Roland website. If I were to hazard the cause of the...

Looks like it's in the print to me too. Looks fine, but then if it's supposed to be jet black, it doesn't. I'd find out.

My recommendation (not an ad). Very precise. Easy to use. https://www.artstation-vehicletemplates.com/

I'm going to disagree. Other than soaking the head to see if it cleans up, I wouldn't even think of a head replacement with that degree of wear - assuming your prints still look good. Blacks always degrade first and that doesn't look too bad. Just adjust your print profile to compensate and you...

I suggest changing the print profile. We also have a VS-540. Print heads wear so you often need to compensate in our experience.
