  1. Frosted Glass Vinyl

    Looking to install some window frosting on a curved shower glass door. est 3ft x 6ft I've worked with Metamark Silver Etch dry apply on flat surfaces, and found it to be a bit finicky to work with. Maybe the wet apply is easier to work with? I know there's some air egress stuff being shown...

  4. Upgraded from Dual 1.6 to VW6 on 12th gen i5!

    Running VW6 off a recent upgrade, couldn't agree more! When I got new hardware I installed a font manager. Unused fonts add up over the years and slowed me down. Also stopped saving print files unless they're super common re-ordered items. Just keep the original artwork files (ai ect.) Saves a...
  5. VersaWorks & Illustrator

    Thanks everyone! The EPS Margin setting in VW did the trick! Never had an issue with EPS and gradients/transparencies, however I will start using PDF files.
  6. VersaWorks & Illustrator

    For that I actually just copy the shape, paste in place and send to back as a CutContour spot color. (I use no stroke at all). Using the stroke cut contour method gave me the issue of having double cut lines everywhere, regardless of its positioning (inside, outside).

    .EPS
  8. VersaWorks & Illustrator

    Running Versaworks 6.19.2 Small issue, but kind of annoying.. Say there's a print with a simple square cut. Create graphics on an artboard (in illustrator) say 24" x 24" CutContour spot as a fill 24" x 24" (I use a fill exactly copied underneath) Everythings perfectly centered to the artboard...
  9. substrates from customers

    I can think of one circumstance. We reface double sided 4' x 4' ACM sheets for a local auction company. Good repeat customer though. I don't even laminate the prints, or peel the old ones, just laminate overtop. They're dropped into a frame and put up on the highway, typically only up for a...
  10. printing on chrome

    Not with UV, but I stock SF100 Mirror Chrome for the Edge FX, and have tried it once in a pinch with Solvent (Roland VG540). Did not work at all, the ink didn't set in and just floated on top.
  11. Rolling up and shipping CAD cut masked vinyl piece

    Roll mask outside, seal in a plastic bag in case the box gets wet.

    It's possible. If I get the chance to ask I will. Thanks for your insight!
  14. 3M40c Peeling

    THIS! I thought the laminate looked like the culprit too! I'll take a look at the tension. I don't think i'll go back to 40c either way, so thank you for the material suggestions.
  15. 3M40c Peeling

    Have to agree. A fella needs to be able to stand behind his work. Appreciate your input!
