Hi All, I'm new to the world of flatbed UV printing and I'm having a bit of trouble getting inks to stick properly to mylar films. Or, generically, polyethylene terephthalate (PET/BoPET). We have a new Mimaki JFX200-2513 which prints beautifully, but the inks don't stick well on these films...

Going to order some printed Orajet Clear 0-3651 from Signs365. I am planning on installing it on some used faces (pan face I believe they are called)...with the beveled/extruded edges. My question is...will I be able to heat and shape this material around those edges? Also, what transfer...

I have a customer (friend) who just got a used portable trade show booth. It is about 10.5' long, and 7.5' high. There are vertical magnetic strips that the sign panels (booth wall) attach to the skeleton or structure of the booth. There are 4 panels 26.5" wide by 88.125" high. They look like...

So I'm looking into films for an interior wall wrap for our new office space. It's an "industrial" style building in the Old Town area, with corrugated metal panels, exposed brick, and some painted drywall. We've got multiple types of surfaces, but only want to buy one roll of material. This is...

What do you you guys to do cut Acrylite without it cracking? I haven't found the key yet. thanks! Bryce

Hello all, I've been making some signs and banners and I have a customer who would like it on Alumilite instead of coroplast. I've looked on Fellers and others, but I cannot seem to find it. Is this not a standard, heavy duty, board? Thanks for any info! Bryce

I need a tip or a trick. I'm printing some large banners and the sides of the material typically have lint. I try and burn them off with a lighter from the roll but still some gets through. I really don't care if it stays on the back side and does cause problems with head strikes. But I am...

We regularly use 180C for some of our wraps on painted vehicles without a problem. We'll be printing the camo with our XC-540. We need to put camo on some ATV plastic and I was wondering if anybody here ever used 180C on a low energy plastic like that. I know it will stick...but for how long...

We are printing a gas station sign that is one of the canopies that goes around the gas pumps (4 sides). It is about 20 feet on each size so we want it to be on a roll. We will use the HP FB700 UV printer. What material would you suggest?

Back before I got smart and labeled all my materials I bought some great poster paper that I am now running out of and don't know who made it. I print on a Roland VP-540. What (in your opinions) is the best Eco-Solvent poster material that is NOT polyester ? I've tried SIHL 3629, but had...

I have been asked by a current customer to come up with a material for a decal to be applied to the metal door on the front of an ice cooler/storage chest that you would normally see on the outside of a gas station. They want the material to hold for about 1 year, then be removable without much...

How does one cut a film that does not come with a backing material? I have a Graphtec FC8000 and I would like to cut a .0006" thick polycarbonate film with the cutter but the film does not come with a backing material. How do I work around this?
