  1. What to do with all waste vinyl and liner?

    I’ll save some liner rolls to give to my painter / contractor customers to cover floors and such. If no one wants them they go into the recycling container that gets picked up every two weeks… In my town everything is commingled. So plastic, glass, cardboard goes in same big green Waste...

  2. Need Help Wet or Dry?

    Dry install.

  3. Gold removable

    Possible but would cost a lot of money and you open your self up to a law suite when someone slips and breaks a hip. Sell them a banner to put on the wall...

    Masking tape recommendations

    3M Blue works fine. Setting graphics in place on the new aluminum truck panels and fiberglass box trucks is terrible if you can't use magnets... If they're large, like a box truck or trailer I use 3M "No Residue" duct tape with the purple label. Holds strong and no adhesive left on the vehicle.

    Red to Black fade gradient

    Rasterize it and add a bit "noise" in Photoshop to help eliminate banding. Slow down printing and more heat should help too.

    Yes it’s available but crap unless you just need it for a year or so

    VersaWorks Gradient Help with Roland Spot Colors

    Roland spot colors don’t work with gradients. My tech / installer made a couple changes in Versaworks when I got my new printer last summer. Great gradients, no green grays to try to overcome. I’ll try to post tomorrow with the settings

  15. Question 18 oz 2 sided with sewn edges ?

    No one that I know of. Ran into that same problem like 20 years ago. Some engineer sent me specs for an over a road banner for a Fourth of July party. Wanted reinforced sewn in ropes, grommets every two feet, wind slits that had to be sewn around the perimeters so not to rip. No thanks
