fellers black label

[Geneva Olson]

Does anyone have any experience with fellers black label vinyl? Ive been using arlon slx. Grimco sold me their brightline that was comparable to the arlon slx but I had a few issues with it so I'm not using them again (the vinyl slid off the adhesive). I came across fellers black label and was wondering if anyone knows its comparability to arlon slx?

Here's a thread to read. I had bought a roll right before I saw this thread. I haven't used the vinyl after reading....

I have been using the Black Label 3-mil 4 year removable calendered with air egress plus the 5-year gloss UV lamination for several months. I like the way it prints on my HP 315 and the lamination is nice and glossy and does not alter the colors much like the Briteline stuff does. Can't speak for the cast material but I am definitely a fan of the calenedered stuff for basic sign boards. And it doesn't hurt that it was saving me over $200 per kit (although I see Grimco just lowered their prices so now if is more like $140 per kit).

Where are you getting arlon 510 for $140? I see it for $179. Also, I like the black label due to to air egress which I don't think the Arlon 510 is, unless I am mistaken

That sounds about right. I'm getting 510 for $147 (including my account-wide volume discounts)

Horrible experience with the cast. Wrapped a car for a client and after 6months the partners split. We were asked to remove graphics and it was a horrible experience. Took a week with grinding wheels. The product would not release. When we complained about issue, no credit,, reimbursement for the removal expense or even follow up from them.

Yep, I tried the Black Label as well, Alot of minor headstrikes. I had issues using the Black label 3mil calendered clear adhesive. I did the cut print option and I couldn't get my blade to cut through the adhesive. I put on a new 60-degree blade and pinned the blade force, yeah this sheet sux.
