  1. Print/cut combo

    I just picked up a Mimaki CV J150 printer/cutterv and love it. I got the CMYK + Orange and Light Magenta & a couple other colors (8 color setup). The colors come out vibrant and the only issues I've had is dialing in the die cut and perf cut. I think l got it handled now tho. Going to run some...
  2. Need to outgas?????

    Do you have a brand of thicker adhesive vinyl that you recommend for decals and stickers? I got a roll of Briteline that came with my new Mimaki CJV and it is extremely thin. Even with 3mil UV laminate it's still tacky/thin. I'm looking into getting some vinyl and laminate from Substance to...

    2023 baby!
  4. How Should I Apply?

    I already had the styrene printed before l submitted this post, so l used that and did the mounting tape as others suggested. Then reinforced it with tiny nails in the corners and middle. It'll be a lesson learned, just hopefully not an expensive one. Thank you ask for your insight and suggestions
  5. How Should I Apply?

    Yeah, l had already had everything printed before l submitted the post, so l couldn't decline. It'll be a lesson learned. I appreciate all of your feedback tho
  6. 2023 Wrap Up. First Year Doing Sign Printing Business, No Experience, Gross 800K, Net 0, Need Advice!

    That's a good idea, especially in LA with the deep music, film, and art scenes
  7. How Should I Apply?

    It's Too late. It's already up. I let him know ahead of time of how it could fail. He signed off on the terms/conditions.
  8. How Should I Apply?

    Yeah he's kinda slow and stubborn. I'll just try the mounting tape and keep my fingers crossed.
  9. How Should I Apply?

    I agree. That's what l kept telling him, but he kept saying that he already tinted the windows so he doesn't want to put perf on them. Not sure what his logic is, but we'll see in the long run.
  10. How Should I Apply?

    Yeah I'm an hour north of Bakersfield as well. I kept trying to tell him to do the window perf, but he kept saying he doesn't want it because he already tinted the windows ‍♂️ He would not budge. I guess he'll find out the hard and expensive way.
  11. How Should I Apply?

    Ok I'll try the tape. I kept trying to sell them on the vinyl, but they kept saying they already put tint on the windows, so it wouldn't make sense. That's the hardest part, is trying to educate the customer
  12. How Should I Apply?

    Thanks! They are 6x4 feet, placed on the exterior, and he's wanting them long term. The building is off the side of a small highway with moderate wind at times.
  13. How Should I Apply?

    Good afternoon, All I just got a job to apply graphics to store front windows, but instead of perforated vinyl they want to go with .020" styrene. I've applied tons of perf vinyl, but never had to apply plastic directly to a window frame, so need y'all's expertise. I can add grommets to each...
  14. mimaki cjv150 print head and pump problem

    Man that's great! I want to get a UV next, since l get a lot of requests for short runs of promo items. I have a few clients in the Colorado, New Mexico and Caki dispensary market, so will definitely hit them up. I had to outsource all their labels. Thank you for your time and info!
