Just an update here. I got the can of Clear Jet and tested my banner with it. So I printed the banner let it dry for about an hour and then applied the Clear jet. Everything came out good with it. The spray didn't leave a tacky feeling on the print. Thanks for the help everyone. :thankyou:

Thanks for your help

Jackpine do you have a problem with the print being tackie after the 2 coats?

So you would use liquid lam?

Ok

What if I heat the roll laminate with the heat gun? Will it adhere better?

I will have to check. What if we heat it with a heat gun? :frustrated:

The laminate on a roll leaves a haze on the print. Since the scrim is rough on the print side it doesn't go on clean. I have a pressure laminator. I put the print in the sun for a few hours and the haze cleared up. I don't have a few hour for each print. Do you have a suggestion on the roll...

With the roll on water based clear shield is it the same about putting it on in low humidity?

Thanks I will give that a try also.

We talked about hitting it with the heat gun but didn't know if it would make a difference. Thanks for the Tips.

The humidity is probably the biggest factor. Right now in New Orleans its BAD. I have a can of Clear Jet on its way. I am giving that a try. I let the prints dry about 2 hrs before applying. We have a pressure lamination machine also. We have tried that but it leaves little air pockets...

Thanks! MR. Graphics over here we are watching that rain in the Gulf go your way. Hoping it doesn't come to us.

I printed a banner with my hp z3200. It was on scrim material and decided to put liquid laminate (aerosol can) on the banner. I put two coats and let it dry for about 24hrs. Went to touch the banner where the ink is laid down and it was tackie. Did I put to much? Should I just use one coat...
