  1. Good SOLV-PRINTBLE FOR WINDOWS.

    Wondering what you guys like to use for solvent printable vinyl for widows/glass doors for outside. It will be up for a month. I have static cling but not too happy last time I used that.

  3. Installing 1/4" PVC Letters

    Hey guys, This will be my first time installing PVC (maybe Gatorfoam) letters onto drywall. I have done some research and I am fine with the attachment (I will be using 3M DS Tape) It is the lining up on the wall I am concerned about. It is a long sentence containing 6 words (25 letters). My...

    Question, I am in PA we are hitting about 40-50 degrees. I need to remove old and install new perforated vinyl on outside windows (approx 5' high x 3' wide). I know I can't really heat windows, so what is the best way to remove old perf and is it OK to install in 40-50 degrees? Thanks!
  5. Streaks In Print

    This happens to me from time to time, and I seriously can't remember what it is that causes it, or how I was able to fix it in the past. Does this look familiar to anyone? These streaks, is it not laying down enough ink in these specific areas, it always seems to look the same when it does it...
  6. 2 vertical lines on all prints...

    Why am I scared to know what this might be? Could it be as simple as an encoder strip cleaning, or replacement, or is that even simple. They sort of look red and the other green. I restarted machine, it does it on everything I print same exact place. Roland SP540V OH, and this is probably...
  7. Applying Transparent Vinyl

    I don't have much experience with this at all, but I have to lay a sign that is 128" wide x 42" high. I have the material and the acrylic. It is going in a light box that the customer already has. All I need to do is print/mount and drop off the piece for him to put in. So here are a few...
  8. Pricing out Gatorfoam.

    I was wondering if I could get a general idea of what to charge for gatorfoam. I am using .5" gatorfoam and having them routed at Harbor and sent to me so I can apply full color laminated graphics. My customer wants 15 signs and they all are different shapes but they are one complete cut. They...
  9. Serif or Sans?

    I had no idea this was such a huge debate, but thanks to Google I see it is more like a war. I am curious is this a younger/older generation preference or is one really better. When I say better, I know it depends for what, so let's narrow it down...signage. Let's say a sign for a storefront...

  11. Looking for Feather/Teardrop Flags Wholesale...

    Keep finding companies that say wholesale but will ship to general public. I usually use Flag and Sign USA but they do not have the one I need. Any suggestions for a good wholesale teardrop/feather flag? Possibly closer to East Coast? Thanks!
  12. 8ft table covers, wholesale provider?

    Does anyone know where I can purchase 8ft table covers. I have a customer that wants a custom one done for a trade show. I look on line and a lot of people selling in the $150-$200 range, but I need wholesale, somewhere my customer just can't go to get it. Thanks. I am thinking just a front...
  13. Vinyl Cutter/Plotter

    OK I have a question. I posted earlier about outsourcing cut vinyl. One of the reasons was it was a big job I did not have time to weed, the other reason is my cutter (I use my Roland SP 540V) does not cut detailed enough. I got quotes from 2 different place one sent me back a proof that was...
  14. Need wholesale cut vinyl.

    Anybody have an idea where I can get this? I don't want to cut & weed myself. I need about 1000 white cut vinyl. I was looking at Stouse but they say there vinyl is only rated for 2-3 years. This is a white vinyl cut with 7 picks and goes on the back of industrial equipment. I just thought 2...
  15. Attaching two pieces of Gatorfoam

    Any advise on the best (strongest) method to do this? I have a .5" 43 x 20 oval going on top of a 1" 48" x 25" Oval creating a 3d eclipse type look. One on top of the other and it will hang from a decorative chain. Should I use... Double stick tape (if so, recommendations please) Some type of...
  16. Lamination

    Just curious what you decide to laminate. Do you only laminate something that is going to be outside so it is protected from weather. I have an inside sign I am doing, printed vinyl applied on Gatorfoam, if it will be inside do I need to, or should I laminate it? Thanks!
  17. Cut vinyl or a durable sticker?

    Hey, I need some advice. I need a low cost durable either cut vinyl decal or a printed one color sticker laminated that would be contour cut. It is for a customer that has a fleet of farm equipment and it needs to be durable. I think cut vinyl is the way to go but they may order 500-1000 and I...

  19. Replacing a head on Roland SP540V - DIY or....

    Bad head on Roland SP540V So I have been told it is not extremely difficult to do this and most of the places I called are ridiculously priced to do it so I thought, should I just do it myself? First of all I talked to 3 different places and they mark that head up way too much, and then they...
  20. Repalcing a Printhead...advice...

    No, I really don't want to do it myself. But I was wondering before I fork over nearly $1300-$1500 is there any other alternative? I see the print heads on eBay and other websites (I know I have to be careful as some don't offer any warranty) but I know these ARE official Roland (Epson) parts...
