Short Term Outdoor Floor Graphic (24 hours) - Can I skip the overlaminate?

I personally wouldn't risk not laminating it. This is the material I would use. I have called them in the past to ask questions about durability and the service was great

You can use our air release vinyl 54"x150' ($140) + laminate 54"x150' ($105) shipping out of S. California. 24 hours no problem. Why use expensive materials for 24 hours.

So what happens if someone has an accident on this "budget" vinyl that isn't slip rated?
Who will be liable?

The price of a lawsuit will outweigh the benefits of using the wrong material for the job.

 

Most likely, even if you have someone sign a waiver, you are the supposed professional here and a professional never let's a customer dictate price or product. Should something go wrong, as just mentioned, you would be brought in first and foremost for supplying the wrong setup.

 

Matte lam over gloss will give you a matte finish. You need to put a non slip lamination on it even for 24 hour use.

 

Agree with others, don't cheap out. We've had good luck with this Panorama walk and wall @ 1.19/sq. ft.: https://www.fellers.com/fellers-sho...rap-vinyl/set/panofilm-panorama-walk-and-wall Doesn't require laminate, nice textured no-slip surface holds up 6months or more on our 'sidewalk test' (latex print) in front of our shop.

 

I have a short term matte floor laminate that would only be $80 for 54"x150' and my base vinyl would only be $130 for 54"x150', I can ship from one of our 3 branches in California if you are interested.

 

Semi gloss towards matte side. We can ship it out today to arrive tomorrow since you're in CA. Our daily shipping cut off time is 5:30 pm. When you order from any other vendor, make sure they would ship it today. ; )

You should also make sure that the vendor you buy from isnt a competitor also. FYI, this company sells signage and materials under different company names https://ocposter.com/products/vinyl-banner-13oz is the same company trying to sell you media.

 

Good guess. It actually owned by a different owner. You'd need to get your information more correctly before putting it out there. And what it is has to do with selling materials? Should I start naming your siblings?

 

Well it says it in plain site on the webpage:

So I removed the premier colour and the website doesn't own by the same company anymore? what if I put your name on it? It only takes couple seconds. And I'll remove it again. lol

It was made by an ex employee of ours. $0 sale for the past three years.

 

It has everything to do with selling against your customers, that's all. I could sell banner stands and prints all day long but instead when people ask me for those items, I simply REFER the business to my clients. I understand your side completely, I just don't agree with it thats all. You personally are a great guy, we just happen to compete against each other in certain areas.

 

That I could understand, lol yeah don't put my name on it. Although, it might help you sell more. lol j/k, I won't give you anymore crap, I like you and think we will be friendly competitors. Have a great New Year and best of luck with everything, sincerely mean that!

 

Sell more? We would sell X100 more. Done Josh. Best to you and the family!

I don't understand his side. Is he a supplier to the trade only or does he claim to not do what his website says he does ?? Plain English and understanding the language says.... it all sounds like double-talk. Anyway, rather than ruin this OP's thread any longer, could you explain further in a new thread ??

 

The shopify for ocposter was paid for 3 years. It is going to end. We put Premier Colour on ocposter for SEO purpose. I might not need SEO services anymore. People ike Gino and Bigfish DM makes my website ranking higher by clicking on the website link. The last person who clicked on the website is maybe 3 months ago. Awesome guys.
