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...
Hello everyone, in November we were contracted to do 70 pole banners for our township. We did our research and ordered in 2 rolls of Ultraflex Pole Banner Pro 18oz for the job. We printed 2 sided on the Roland, contracted a seamstress to hem and sew, she used a military grade thread. She...

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...
Hello! I was wondering if I could get some input as to what is the best plotter on the market today that won't cost me a gazillion dollars? I have worked in the sign biz for a few years and am thinking of branching out on my own. At my former employer we had a Mimaki printer and plotter. Also a...
I really appreciate the help I've received in previous questions. I have another one though!
I just got deposit on a job today, it's a non-lit sign that's in a 8'x16' metal frame about 20' high. I plan on using cut vinyl and some digital print.
The previous panels were (4) 4'x8' MDO all...
My 19 years old nephew want to get in the game and become an installation tech for vinyl (car wrap, mural, windows, etc.). We live to far appart so I could hire him and give him a training. I've suggested to find a position in is area, but without experience no one will take him even as an...
I did a standoff sign for a customer here in Memphis. The dark gray printed as a dark purple and I did not catch it. We left the premask on to protect the sign during transport, so the customer didn't notice the color. I believe the trade show starts Thursday, so I'll need it cut tomorrow. I can...
Keeping things simple on this one... what do you think? Too blocky and simple? Not the right feel for a gunshow? These will be put up along the roadside.
They will be painted background and cut vinyl text per customer request. The date and $ will be changed out on occasion, so I figured putting...
The friend I had that cut my vinyl passed away from lung cancer.
I don't do much vinyl, but I did just get an rfq for a customer that simply wants black vinyl lettering on his truck. Total is probably 48" x 120" if I can shoehorn it all in there.
I'm looking for someone that can cut that for...
I use a Roland VS-540i and I've noticed that if I say, have 100 stickers to print/cut, the plotter won't necessarily cut each sticker in order - for example if I have a row of 10 stickers it'll cut the one on the far right first, then skip ahead to the 4th, then back to the 2nd, then over to the...
Morning Signs 101 Buds,
I used to relatively have no issues with digitally printing printing on MacTac White engineer grade reflective sheeting with our old Roland SC-540. We purchased a Roland VS-640i and am having no luck printing on the same sheeting. The material acts like it's not...
I am looking for a reliable wholesale sticker company- for stickers about 2" round, bumper stickers etc. Not paper, but waterproof vinyl. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Anyone have issues with this Vandal Guard anti-graffiti laminate. It seams to be shrinking and pulling the the vinyl as it sits on the table. It has even lifted and then shrunk and left a crease that will not go away. I printed with a Roland 540 and laminated with minimal tension on a Royal...
I am quoting a job for a client who retrofits vehicles for fire departments and police departments. They would like me to complete the lettering and markings on a few new fire trucks and was surprised to find that the engine turn gold pattern is nearly impossible to find anymore.
Currently...
Okay, so my Mutoh has always come up a little short on banners on our banner setting but nothing drastic so we did not adjust. All other materials have always been spot on. Now, my vinyl prints are coming up short...the longer the print the bigger the difference and width-wise it is dead on...
Hi all.....I have a job that the customer calls out Reflex Blue, but i have no sample of the color.....I use 3m 7125 vinyl and am not sure which blue would be closest....Does anyone have a suggestion?
Thanx
