  1. Ronan - Jack's Cream?

    Getting ready to apply some black smalts to a routed HDU and I don't think I have enough Smith's Cream left to use with 1Shot for the adhesive. Letterhead Sign Supply is all out and I see that Ronan makes a similar product. Has anyone used it before and how does it compare to Smith's Cream?

  8. How stressed are you?

    This report seems to reveal that a clear majority of us are feeling more stress than ever and more than residents of even far less well off countries. I thought a booming economy and low unemployment was the cure all for what ails a society...

  19. Any ideas on what could be causing these print problems?

    We've started seeing these faint stripes running about 30"-36" up on a 4'x8' sheet on our ION Solara as well as what look like encoder strip errors at the same point on prints a little while ago. We know about the banding and its because one of our Cyan heads is failing and we're just waiting...
