Suggestions Cut vinyl for floors

bigben

Not a newbie
Is there any cut vinyl that is ''rated'' for floors? I've got a customer that want dark grey lines on his floor. If there is no such products, what alternative would you recommend? Paint is not an option.

Thanks.

Profane and profane accessories.
I don't think (not 100% certain) any of the vinyls for plotter cutting are going to hold up to traffic without laminating them- which will lead the customer to expect you to replace them for free when they fail.
With a laminate made for that application, though, I'd think just about any high performance vinyl would work if properly applied.

Product Catalogue: 3M™ 3645 Floor Overlaminate

This is what we use. Just used it on some 180, in a very high traffic 10-20,000 people per day area. It's been up a few months, and no signs of peeling yet. We've used it in the past... but I haven't been back to where we applied it, been a few years and we haven't had to re-do it, so I'm presuming it's still good.

I'd say go with a high-tac vinyl, then overlam it, and it probably wont go anywhere. If they're a warehouse, and you have forklifts / pallet jacks riding into it a lot, Not too sure how well it'd hold up... Ask your rep for a sample, put it down and let it sit a few days / week, see how it's doing.

What type of floor surface?
On concrete I have sealed the surface with a good quality paving sealer, I used Feast Watson here in Aus. Then apply a quality cut vinyl, i have done it with both 7725 and Avery 900. Then reseal with 2 coats of the same sealer. I have used this in an area that has vehicles and trolleys.

They make special vinyl for floors, make sure it's anti-slip. To my knowledge, they don't make a cut vinyl for it, so just get the printable one and print the gray.

You might try searching for Warehouse/Safety striping suppliers. Just not sure they'll have the color you want. Other than that using a gray vinyl with the correct ant slip laminate would work best.
