Avery's website is not giving me much when looking for what to print then apply 6040 on, and I'm worried about slapping it on some Arlon or 3M and having to deal with the laminate peeling down the line. Does anyone have any suggestions that are long term? I'd like to get at least 4-5 years out...
Hi everyone,
We are currently deciding whether to switch from Oracal 3164 to Avery MPI 3000 as our primary low cost vinyl. We print primarily on HP latex 65500 and the print seems better on the Avery. The 3164 sometimes gets wrinkled because of the heat of the print.
We have experience on...
Been at my current shop since 2015. Was at my last from 2002-2015. Have used Avery 2 mil high performance vinyl at both jobs. Suddenly, it is useless. Multiple machines, multiple plotter settings - last two rolls have weeded terribly. Shapes/copy cut perfectly, nice trace line on the...
Recently, we've been getting a lot of re-dos for Avery 2611 wall vinyl. We've used the correct profile, tested the walls, let offgass for 72 hours (or often more) and done our cutting and installation and moved on, only to have a client return in 3 months because it's starting to curl or fail. I...
We have been using Etch-mark for years. The just changed to a new poly liner. At first we loved it, much easier to weed out with the fine detail that we are cutting. The problem is the transfer tape. The standard 4075 tape we use will not take it off the liner. I tried Clear Choice , that took...
We are looking in the Avery supreme wrap 900 series and would like to know what the closest, or better yet, exact match to a fire engine red would be.
What would you choose?
thanks!
I'm an installer looking for a wholesale supplier who uses Avery's 1105 film. I currently use Signs365 and B2Signs, but they both use 3M IJ180. I'm not happy with the way the film is laying down. The initial tack is too high and the repositionability isn't there. I can't tell if the ink is...

Hey Guys and Gals,
I wanted to know everyone's preferences when it comes to traffic signs and what brand everyone likes using best, 3M, Avery or Oralite.
Me personally I have been using 3M 3930 High Intensity Prismatic Sheeting, DG3 and Some engineer Grade. I have been in the traffic sign...

Well... Not the end of the world but Dear Lord help me!
So a customer of mine wanted to wrap up a Smart car in Matte finish and have their logos laminated with gloss and stick on top of the matte wrap to give it an extra popping effect.
Since this is such a small car and basically matte...
Hi All! I do most of my printed graphics on IJ35C, and I used to use 3M 8508 overlam, but that is leaving very bad silvering issues. My vendor agreed to take the roll back from me, but nothing has compared to the clarity of my cast overlaminates such as Avery 1360.
That said, Avery 1360 is...
HI, hope I can explain this. My Graphtec just died and I need to cut a black vinyl job using Avery vinyl, (designed/set up in signlab) so I sent it over to our Vp 540 and gave it a contour cut and it did a horrible job ( the sanserif's where half cut off) looking at the options in the control...
Does anyone know if Avery's GLOSS SW900 supreme wrapping film is solvent printable? Namely the Gloss Lime Green. Printer is a Roland SolJet XR-640. Thanks!
Hello,
I have a customer that wants some cut vinyl graphics in florentine silver which they picked out of Avery's sample book. I since found out that Avery discontinued this silver last year!
I also check Rtape and they do not make silver either.
Does anybody have any of this they are willing...
I need some advice and direction. Recently I have been printing on Avery MPI2001 using Mimaki SS21 Solvent ink on a Mimaki JV33-160. I am printing vehicle livery for trucks and buses but I am having serious issues with customer complaints saying the graphics are shrinking back so much that the...
