vinyl

Hello, I have been using 3M IJ180 CV3 for about 7 years now and since late 2015 I have been having more and more instances of the same problem. I have posted pictures to hopefully help with the description but basically there are random areas where the backing will not stick and it seems like...

Ship by Fedex ground. Order by 5 PM for same day shipping. Fixed $24 ground shipping. We carefully select printing media for our customers. If a customer complains about a product more than three times, it is permanently and automatically off our shelf. All printing media works like it...

Just wandering if manufacturers should make lamination rolls the same size as the print vinyl (As they do right now, .25" smaller or a .5" smaller? Stuff happens, your printed vinyl wound uneven and it will weave, you did not align it right with a lamination when laminating, or whatever the...

Hi. We have a Summa plotter S140 T series that has some issues with the vinyl tracking on fullwidth vinyl media. The plotter has 4 tracking wheels where the 2 innermost are optional to use. When I load a roll with vinyl 1260mm width, and want to plot a file from Flexi I always click "show me" to...

Should all vehicle graphics be done with cast vinyl? Not talking about wraps, which is a given. What about printed graphics and cut vinyl lettering on flat surfaces?

So we've had our 260 for over 2 years now. It is still a common problem for our prints to scratch very easily. I have pretty much maxxed out the Curing temp on this thing without it self combusting....what is everyone else running their cure heat at for everyday intermediate vinyl? Currently I...

So I've had this 330 for 2+ years and I'm really all thumbs. I want to put a disclaimer out there and say that we're not the shop that makes custom profiles. In fact, we usually stick to 1 profile for all vinyl, 1 or 2 for textiles and 1 for banner and thats it. We'll do the print tests and...

Hello, I have owned a Summa DC3 printer/cutter for several years now and have always bought the vinyl from them. I am looking for another supplier/vendor that may sell the same material or something similiar at maybe a cheaper price. I am currently using their 3M Premium White Vinyl roll of...

I have a body shop account that needs me to remove and reinstall vinyl just like this van. Remove the same amount of lettering and re install it. I guess comcast has everything pre cut and just sends them out to the shop when they are in need of new ones. So it would just be for the labor. What...

First of all I understand software cost money to develop and I am NOT looking for a free solution however that being said I was wondering if I could get some help... I purchased an older cutter plotter and computer (Vinyl Express Ultra 24" serial port and Windows XP Dell machine) I was...

I mostly make mailbox numbers and currently use cut vinyl. I'm wanting to go a different direction but I still like the look of the color of the mailbox showing through so I'm thinking of printing on clear vinyl. I have absolutely no printing experience so it's a steep learning curve. Printing...

I am looking for someone that can help my company with our new venture. We were subbing out all of our graphics and lettering for years. We decided to start doing it ourselves so we didn't have to exist on other peoples schedules. We are doing good with the smaller things. We are looking for...

I have a client buying one of these (see pic) Looks like they digital print the whole thing, but my client wants us to do the same vinyl lettering we do on their hard side trailers. Years ago I did some that rolled up but these are whole different thing. Anyone ever dealt with one of these...

Have a HUGE need for the stripper pole vinyl remover with a client that I picked up, and I'm losing my mind just rolling a tube with my arms crawling all over the sign trying to remove 4X8 prints. Anyone know anyone that would still have these in stock? It appears as though they're out of...

Looking for suggestions. I have a friend in the trucking buisness needing some vinyl work on 30 trailers. 99% of the stuff I do is done on Avery 1105/1360. In this instance I think that may be overkill. There are 2 logos (rectangles) 36"x60" and some lettering for identification in 5 places...

So right now my current process to apply the vinyl is print, cut, apply. However it's very difficult applying the front wrap after the vinyl has been cut. It's pretty weak around the numbers. (see pictures) The vinyl can stretch, wrinkle etc. I'm pretty good at it and very rarely do I make a...
