Dual Layer printer recommendations

JBurton

I'm looking to outsource some prints, with different graphics on each side. They will need to be opaque, to avoid any bleed through from one side to the next, and they need to be contour cut and masked. In theory, I could plot and mask them in house, but why bother if I'm already paying someone else. Anybody have a vendor they use for this, or any on the site?

I see signs365 offers dual layer, I don't see any option for contour cutting, anybody utilize them for such things?
 
We do this all day long, color-white-color or color-white-black-white-color. If you want to send me a me the file I am happy to quote it for you. We use a mimaki ucjv300.

are you looking to do this with an adhesive? I've got a two part solution where you can print on a clear and print on an opaque then laminate them together on a laminator...from there you can plot/mask/whatever and then apply to a window.

I just based my quote off of signs365's pricing, but if the job pans out I may just take you up on that.

I mean, I've got clear films and white films I can bang my head against trying to register, I'd just rather avoid the hassle and have someone else handle it. Only issue with going through signs365 is the apparent lack of contour cutting.

I use a 080 Blockout MXM / Transpauqe II, print on my UV flatbed and apply Drytac Window-Tac, DS Hi-Low adhesive
