A beginner question to what, the written English language?

It's hard to see the exact problem in the image, but I presume you are applying wet and then going over it a couple times as it dries out especially at the edges correct? What material are you using?

If you looked as to where this guy is from, you would quickly see his first language is not English. Doesn't mean he's given a free ticket to write badly, but it does explain his spelling errors, which aren't any worse than the majority of natural born English speaking people.

um ok?



anyways to the guy installing this. Try a dry install.
Also heavy saturation could cause curling. Make sure you add lam to help it stay down

 

[ravitan]

no lam yet..
dry? ?
no shortcuts?
install white water and plmoliv i just love the smel

 

[HulkSmash]

no.. don't use pamoliv... use baby shampoo.. it has no suds..

What series of Oracal are you using and what are you applying it on to?
Some materials don't lend themselves to a wet install, if the vinyl has the
air release feature it is best installed dry.
Are you doing the install up on the wall or are able to take it down and do it on the ground or in your shop?
Lots of things can cause problems like this so more details will help find the cause.

[ravitan]

the problem apper in any print mediya
it dosnt matter if it s orcal, xfilm ect.
i applay on tin, plastic, windows ,in my shop or at the mall
when i apply dry i dont have this problem only in wet.
in black prints it happen all the time..

Use a liter of water with two or three drops of plain dish soap, then add two table spoons of denatured alcohol.

 

[GAC05]

Use vinyl with the air release feature from 3M or Oracal - do installs dry.
More profit less stress.

I would say it was printed with a 3164 and wet installed

Next time use a 3165ra and do it dry
