  1. How would you decorate a convex mirror?

    Hard weeding only isn't worth it if you aren't charging enough for it. You could do this in cut vinyl if the graphic can be divided into rays that can be applied to the contour. The question is whether the customer will feel that $300 plus is worth it to have a frivolous idea carried out

  3. Discussion Premature Wrap discoloration where vehicle is touched by the tech's hands. Thoughts?

    If it's something unique to HVAC industry, I'd guess it's the refrigerant oil. If you're only seeing it on one company's vehicles, it's probably because the techs that work there aren't wearing the gloves they are supposed to be wearing when opening compressors or refilling systems, etc. The oil...
  4. SJEOOW Cable

    The cable is fine but if they are skipping the use of conduit where they run the cable to and through the wall that would likely be the code violation.
  5. Simple white window graphics. Is die-cut white vinyl alone sufficient?

    I wouldn't stock a 50 yd roll of 48" vinyl. It's too hard to do routine jobs without waste, and putting application tape on 48" is a total pain compared to 24" or 30". You will very seldom find a job that cannot be done with 24" or 30" vinyl. You're only doing two 5' windows on this job, so I...
  6. Simple white window graphics. Is die-cut white vinyl alone sufficient?

    I would buy the 24" or 30" and find a place to break the graphic apart so it fits on the vinyl. But if you must cut it as a whole 32" high piece, Fellers sells 3M 7125 (cast) 48" wide by the yard. You will not end up using 48" vinyl often enough to use up a long roll.
  7. Simple white window graphics. Is die-cut white vinyl alone sufficient?

    Your thread title asks if die cut vinyl alone is sufficient. It's not only sufficient, it is the correct choice. And, as mentioned, overlaminate is for prints. As to whether Avery 750 is OK, it will certainly do the job just fine. Avery says that in Zone 1 (North America and Western Europe) it...
  8. Window perf printed

    It will fade faster and when it rains they will be completely unable to see out the back window. Water fills the little holes and makes it like a frosted window. If they drive on dirt or gravel roads dust will fill the holes and block vision also. If it's going on a vehicle it needs to be...

  10. How do I fix these?

    What is a rendered wall? Rendered usually implies a drawing, so if you're dealing in the virtual world usually no adhesive or fastener is required. You just place the letters in the layout on the virtual wall.
  11. Epson SureColor S40600 printing blank pages

    The Epson service fee will get your printer back to as-new condition. Better to pay it and be in operation than to futz around and be out whatever you paid for an inoperable printer. You can't get replacement parts except through their authorized service.
  12. Installation code of conduct agreement?

    This is not a new thing. We have a large outlet mall across the street (which is nearly dead now). We have done a lot of work at these stores under contract to a large marketing/sign company which does all the stores for the company. Stores like Coach, Nike, Adidas, Polo, Reebok, and so on...
  13. Rant Whatever happened to Health & Safety?

    They make tents that mount on platforms like that and people camp on top of vans like that. Standing on it seems like it would be a piece of cake. Probably as steady and secure as they'd be on a double level of scaffolding.
  14. Flippin' Illustrator keeps shutting down. Not crashing, just disappearing.

    The DRM is what he's referring to by cloud. The app has to constantly check with home or things don't work.
  15. Contour Cut Sign to be Hung Outside on Facade of Building

    Just screw treated lumber 2x4s to the wall and screw the sign to the lumber. Unless you're talking about individual cut out letters or something. But I cannot see the picture everyone else is talking about.

  17. HTV issues.

    Our supplier changed the material and the pressing specifications unannounced last year. The temperatures and times changed. Quite likely yours did too.
  18. HTV issues.

    If the manufacturer says press at 330, then 300 isn't fully activating the adhesive. In addition, the temperature you set on the dial does not necessarily mean that the platen is that temperature, and it can drift over time. Most likely you've been underpressing your graphics for years and drift...
