I own a small wrap shop and am constantly on the lookout for more employees, especially more installers. I think it would be immensely helpful to business owners on here and installers alike to have a dedicated forum page for job listings or job wanted posts.
Would this be possible to add?
Just wanted to rant for a second and see if anyone has any ideas on how to hire full time installers in the Midwest (Oklahoma) or if people on here have encountered similar problems. I own a small shop doing vehicle graphics only, and have been looking for a full time installer now for 3 YEARS...
Has anyone else been running into problems with 3M IJ180 with 8518 lam delaminating?
I thought 3M had fixed this on latex and haven’t had any issues for years, but all of the sudden a few wraps are delaminating in contoured areas. It doesn’t seem to be happening on flat installs, but...
Had a weird problem come up this last week where it looks like the premask on a wrap caused the laminate underneath to bunch up and separate from the vinyl in areas. This is IJ 180cv3 with 8518 gloss lam and latex ink.
I haven’t had any issues with 3M and latex delaminating before, and it’s...
This seems like a silly question but I haven't been able to find the answer anywhere. How do you pause an HP Latex 360? We are having issues with the take-up reel and need to be able to pause the printer and correct the take-up reel before it jams, but there doesn't seem to be any option to...
So I live in Oklahoma and we get ice storms pretty frequently, and the most recent one has ruined a fleet of newly applied tanker graphics for my customer.
I’ve attached a few photos of the damage. The ice tears film laminate off and all the vinyl off if it was liquid laminated. We are having...
Asking because I just finished installing a big piece of Avery on a garage door but was not able to apply it into the recesses before a surprise thunderstorm came through.
The adhesive side is wet in places now, and I’m wondering if I can let it dry out if it will still stick? Obviously not...
Hello Everyone!
Just looking for some helpful input on how to install wraps over these garage bay doors.
I will be using cast vinyl, Avery 1105MPI or 3MIJ180CV3 (not sure which yet) due to the recesses in the doors. I am just not sure if I should work the vinyl into all the recesses on the...
I have a client for whom I installed window perf for a while back, and they are now wanting the inside of the window covered as well. They don't care about visibility and just want to block more of the light, so I don't think putting window perf on the interior as well will be a problem but I...
I have a customer who is extremely hard on the wrap on his truck, and I've had to redo pieces of the wrap multiple times because they keep getting scratched/torn/chipped. I print on Avery MPI 1105 Cast with latex ink and 1360 lam. Normally I never have issues with vinyl getting damaged, just...
