Air Release intermediate vinyl?

[landdesigns]

Hey, Ive been using Oracal 3165ra intermediate vinyl for a few years, lately I have been getting bad prints from static on the vinyl, I switch to a roll of 3164 oracal and the prints are fine. Im wondering if there is another brand of intermediate vinyl on the market that comparable to the 3165ra ,really like using the air release vinyl ,especially on racecars?

Thanks Todd

3M IJ35c is intermediate with air release - prints nice on mutoh value jet.

We use 3M IJ35c as well. Only problem is the laminate 3M recommends for it is complete crap. I think it's 8508/09. The stuff is **** yellow and ruins an otherwise great print on a great intermediate vinyl with air release. We lam it with Oracal 210 gloss or matte and it works great. No problems.

Wow... **** is a bad word? Let me rephrase. It looks like urine.

We use Oracal 3165RA or IJ40C (IJ35C also, but more IJ40..) and lam with 210G.

I'd try to get a different lot number on the 3165RA.. probably a bad batch or something.

I'm using the roland versacamm vp300 (30inch) I dont think the 3m comes in the 30 inch rolls, ya think the arlon dpf4560gtx will work with oracal 210 laminate?

You can get 30" rolls of 3M IJ35C from Grimco, and their Briteline Laminate matches up will with it.

I've done some wall wraps with IJ35c and the 8520 matte laminate. The lam's a little pricey, the but the IJ35c was easy to apply and worked great. The matte finish is a nice touch as well.

Sure does, Fellers has it this way and so does Grimco. You gotta ask.

Grimco's laminate works great, I use it on their Brite Line (concept 201/203) vinyls.

+1

How about LG 383TG CALENDERED Vinyl w/ Airfree Adhesive, anybody try it?

 

[cdiesel]

I don't care for the Arlon 4560.. Had delamination problems with the adhesive. Also, funny enough, we had static problems while printing...

Arlon is awful. The only good stuff they make is the 8000 and that's cause when you put it on, you're never getting it off.

Wouldn't touch the Athlon again either. Film separated from the adhesive. Had better luck with 3165.

3m IJ35C is good, we have tried that and the Oracal equivalent, 3M seems to do better.

+1 for not skimping on the lam, talk about an instant print killer

This is exactly what we do also. No problems so far with mixing the Oracal Lam on top of the 3M product. We uses this combo for everything from laptop skins to interior displays.
