Suggestions Optically Clear Vinyl For Gerber Edge

[bigben]

Hi, I know I've already ask this question in the past, but I could not find my post about the subject.

I'm looking for optically clear vinyl that can be use on the Edge printer. I have a repertory to letter and the font that the customer is asking is to thin to make in cut vinyl. So I was thinking to use my edge for this but I need an optically clear vinyl or something else that would be compatible with my edge.

Thanks.

I print on Gerber Clear Enamel Receptive with good results

What about imagecast clear?

Here is the description :
Cast 2 mil vinyl film with a clear adhesive system suitable for all types of graphic displays. This material is similar to Clear Enamel Receptive without the enamel receptive coating giving it a better transparency once the adhesive "sets" on the surface. Five-year exterior life.

The recommended vinyl for the Edge is Gerber/3M Imagecast Clear.

Did you ever use it in the "real world"? Is it really optically clear?

 

[Fred Weiss]

Yes and yes. The only vinyl we use more of than Imagecast is Gerber 220 White.

Great, thank you. One last question. Do you need to install it wet like ''regular'' optically clear vinyl?

I would say more often than not ... but dry also works.
