I think you dropped your co co puffs. How do you think they test out a 2013 vehicle and give you a warranty on that.
And it's probably exactly how they are testing vinyl. All they need is a s sample then mimic years of sun and rain. Done in five minutes.
When they do the stretch test on vinyl is it on a car? No.
When they are testing a new vehicle is it on the street? No it's on a test track.
When you get a new vinyl in the shop are you holding it for 8 years or do you feel it and test it out. Print on it. Scratch it get it wet. Stretch it. Heat it.
You can pretty much tell with your hands when your holding trash vinyl. You think they do not have better ways of testing.
I'm confused.
Got your latest batch of samples, thanks.
I'll test it out in the next couple of days and I'll post pics/feedback.
Just to confirm, that price ($550) is for 100' or 150' bundle?
I printed the film on a JV3 160-SP with Durafos solvent inks @720x720 8 pass,bi
The vinyl printed great colors that was bright & vivid, the laminate was thicker but it went down like butter using the Big squeegee (I didn't want to reload my laminator) wish all laminates went on this easy.
First thing I tryed wraping was the hood of my car, everything was going good till I got a crease and used a touch on it, not only did the crease come out but also burned a hole into the film, at that time I stoped and removed the film. I was then told to use a heat gun instead. Next thing I tryed was a hellmet warp using a bucket. The vinyl does not like much heat it burned a hole thru the film almost instantly on low setting of my heat gun.
Then what I had left over I did a flat piece of aluminum and that went on without a hitch.
Overall, I wouldn't wrap a car with this film but I would use it to wrap a box truck or anything thats flat.
Pros
#1 Prints great
#2 Easy to laminate
Cons
#1 Doesn't like heat
#2 Doesn't stretch well
#3 Vinyl & lam to thick
Ran a some the other night that is some thick stuff. Mine took my heat gun just fine. Colors looked good as well I think this might be good for box trucks not so much for bumbers and fenders.
