The client is going to test some samples this Wed. I was just wondering if there was a specific vinyl other people have already had success with.

Are you laming first? Watch how fast of clear he uses cause I have seen some leech alot of the printed color into the clear

Yes, I'm laminating. I figured the solvents in the clear coat would dissolve some of the ink. I'd really appreciate any other tips and tricks on how to do this right. This is my first time clear coating a vinyl graphic.

To Everyone that has replied: Thank you for taking the time to help me.

I will clearcoat on anything. Oracal vinyls, 3m, it matters not. I have clearcoated over laminated and non laminted prints, i prefer non laminated. I put 2 light coats on it then a heavy third. Ive never had an issue. I lightly scuff prints with soft scotchprint pad and wipe with water

my preference of clear is ppg 2010 clear, high solids

Perfect, So are you scuffing the print before the first coat? Any changes in wait time between coats?

I lightly scuff print very lightly. Wipe with sprayed water and let dry. I spray a mist coat wait bout 15 minutes and then lay another coat of clear on it. Wait bout 20-25 and then a good thick coat. Ive had great luck. Ive got several prints up for over 5 years they look great
