Printing on Vellum?

[Rockvillian]

I have a customer who sent me this link - http://www.decalpaper.com/category-s/2.htm. To me it looks exactly like vellum, but the customer stated it is water applied and looks like it's almost screen printed onto surfaces. He states he wants it applied to plastics, metal posts, ie hard surfaces. My shop operates a Mutoh VJ-1646. Any tips on this? Want some input before I drop 200 bucks on a roll of mystery material...

Why don't you buy the 10 11x17 sheets for $19.99 and give it a try?

That's my next step I think. Still trying to get a bearing on the customer's seriousness, but I guess it's worth a shot... for science!

hey specialty materials has the same thing and i have tried it on many surfaces and it does not always stick but you could call them up and always ask for a sample as well if you have any questions please let me know

That it does. I just got my samples in the mail, trying to keep the ink from blotching all over the paper at the moment as it prints. Trying new profiles.
