Eggshell vinyl for sticker/decal printing 54" roll

[UpstateDecalShop]

who has it and how do I get it other than china? By eggshell we mean the security type the graph kids use to slap everywhere.

I’ve not heard of anything like that. Call your vendors

Yes, "Graff" kids love making "slaps" with that stuff. We get hit up for that material as well and just as you've found, it's only available in China. I've inquired once with a vendor about why the best materials are only available in Asia and supposedly, it's because the chemicals used in the mfg process are outlawed in most of the world...
I've seen some similar materials from Avery and other companies, but never in a size or format that is useable to us.

Someone please post a picture, I don't understand what Graff kids are or the slap thing you're referring to.

Graff kids are Graffiti writers and "slaps" are stickers. Eggshell material is preferred because as you can see, it's a nightmare to try and remove and is mostly solvent resistant...

Ok lol thats what came up when I googled it but had to get confirmation. Why not just make these with a super aggressive adhesive label?

That works too, but the eggshell effect (when the material breaks into tiny pieces as you try to remove it) is the major selling point with this material.

Gerber makes a vinyl like this for printing on the edge, but only 15" rolls

you think eggshell is a pain to remove? etch tags are so bad you need to replace an entire pane of glass. oh the days of youth.

Probably one of those most dangerous chemical to hold in your hand, but highly effective.

I would like to have a reliable source to be able to buy 54" x 150' rolls.

Did any one find a source?

What ever happened to creative use of rattle rockets for tagging? Using decals seems kinda lame and lazy.
