I think you need to print onto vinyl and mount it to the magnet. Why risk it? Plus printing on that, looks like crap in my opinion.

So, use a decal, better results, and less risk.

Plus 1. Print it/ laminate and apply it to 30 mil mag. The 20 mil stuff doesn't grip the vehicle.

+1 to all said above

also if there is a error in the print you have wasted that mag material instead of just the vinyl

bad stuff

I have found that the white layer of digimag peels up... I hate the stuff. I only work with the traditional magnum magnetics... not their digimag.

Yeah, I agree... its not worth the hassle of having the machine work that hard pulling magnet through... I ll stick with the way i have been doing things.

Magnets and electronic do not mix!

......and yet another +1 to everything said

We print on vinyl and custom cut the magnetic on a flatbed cutter

+++print on film and apply to mag. BUT use a good film or the print will shrink and cause edge-curl and magnet FAILURE!!!
dealing this a case right now...I used o just print on cheap, lam and send out...lesson learned.

Print on magnet material that does not have a charge and magnetize afterwards....My supplier has been doing this for years and it works well.....Magnum sells devices from hand held to much fancier......

That sounds like alot of work for making sign for gypsies!!! generally who buy magnetics signs!!!

I typically sell them in bulk, 24+ per order.....To contractors working on large job sites.....I leave a blank space they can use for unit number.....
