3m vinyl

  1. 3M Lamination releasing from Latex Printed vinyl. Please Help

    We are having trouble with laminate peeling off our printed vinyl. I will attach pictures for reference. We do have angles holding these signs in so friction could be an issue but we have done it this way for years and most have no problem. We are printing with HP LATEX 315 Printer onto 3M...
  2. What kind of vinyl this could be?

  8. Hexis, Avery, or 3M?

    Hi everyone, Up till now, I've primarily used polymeric and monomeric vinyls for printing, and this has been good enough. I've used Avery and Aslan mainly for polymeric, and for monomeric, either Avery or other cheap generics. Main reason for this, is that I only had a 30" before, so...
