  7. Does anyone laminate metallic or fluorescent cut vinyl to get longer life?

    Thanks Tyrant, Just what are manufacturers refering to when they say a film is a 6 year film? Are the saying it will stay stuck for atleast 6 years, or are they saying the color will hold up for 6 years? I am re-doing a truck now that I used a six year metallic vinyl on. It has lost all of it...
  8. Does anyone laminate metallic or fluorescent cut vinyl to get longer life?

    Was wondering if anyone has tried laminating fluorescent or high metallic vinyls to hopefully keep them from washing out so soon? We live in south Georgia and the rays around here are brutal. Was thinking of trying this as an extra fee when someone calls about fluorescent lettering on their...

  10. Close to real gold paint?

    Hey Guys, Got a customer that I am doing some signs for. I just got done with one sign for him which is black with gold lettering(One Shot gold metallic). He wants the gold paint to look a bit more like real gold (perhaps a more yellowish gold). Of course he doesnt want to spend the cash it...

  15. valuejet banding, ever seen this?

    Ahhh I sure hope so, but would you happen to know what I need to do to straighten it? I have engaged that spring mechanism on the front plate that holds the head and tried to physically move the head but cant seem to move it. thanks alot
  16. valuejet banding, ever seen this?

    Thanks again Artbot... Wiuld you say that bottom of the head (where the ink sprays out) should sit absolutely flush level and not be tilted whatsoever? Cause when I look at the head it is definitly tilted. And so happens that the side of the head that sits the lowest is the side with the black...
  17. valuejet banding, ever seen this?

    Well all colors except for black was doing it. But now a new problem... I successfully changed the magenta dampers but now when I print a block of red it comes out yellow.:frustrated: I dont think that the magenta ink is getting any further than the dampers. And also am getting a stray straight...
  18. valuejet banding, ever seen this?

    Sounds good Artbot, I am going to try that next. But let me ask you this... do you beleive that there is no possibility that the head is not sitting all the way seated inside the cap when attempting a cleaning? Possibly letting air in around the head. If that is a possibility then is there...

  20. valuejet banding, ever seen this?

    Well I intend on changing all dampers but just wanted to start with 2 to see if my banding problem would get better in that color. So DSD, are you saying that I need to pull both dampers off of the head carriage and pull ink from both dampers at the same time from the hole that gets the o-ring...
