I hadn't seen this one before. It's a little pricey, but if it performs, it will be worth it for us big time. Thanks for the suggestion!

All I can seem to find is high/medium tack when it comes to application/transfer tape. I'm trying to find the lowest tack tape that I can for large vinyl paint masks, but I'm hitting a wall. Everything we try is sticking way more aggressively than we'd like. Has anyone been able to find a...

This is really helpful, thank you! I was looking at Abaco Beach as an option because we like the texture. I think we might just take the leap and try it out.

Do you remember which Dreamscape product you used? The mil thickness of some of these products really pushes what our Latex 310 is supposed to be able to handle. It seems that the 365 has the same mil thickness limit as our machine, which is 19.7 mil. I know we can push this to some degree, so...

We're looking at some jobs that are specced for type II wall coverings - really thick commercial wallpaper. I've looked into different products from Dreamscapes, Korographics, and Vescom, and there are a lot of good options to choose from, but I'm hesitant because I don't know much about their...

We were using Arlon 6100. It was an extremely rushed job with a high profile client, so I had to go with something I already had enough stock of and knew would look great despite the high price point. Not a great fit for this application, but I had to go with it. I would still consider using it...

What do you mean "halfway between cast and calendered"? I have to say I've never heard of a material like that

Thanks so much for the input! I like the specs for Avery 2921, but matte is a dealbreaker. Do you use any similar products that are gloss?

Calendered vs cast isn't a dealbreaker for this application, so I would try calendered. We initially went with cast because we wanted a thinner profile, but I think we might just have to go thicker. Is there a product you would recommend that's gloss, 4 mil or thinner, and slip resistant? (UFL...

Does anyone know of any good removable cast vinyls? We'd like to use this for temporary floor graphics. What we're using right now looks great, but it's too much of a pain to peel up. We're also laminating with a slip resistant laminate, so it doesn't have to be slip resistant on its own...

Haha. Thank you both. I've posted on his profile page, so hopefully he has some insight.

Gino told me you might have some advice on this. I want to use a cast metallic vinyl (either Oracal 951 or Gerber 220) for a project, but I need to be able to laminate it. Neither of these products' specs indicate recommended overlaminates. Could I just use any quality cast laminate? We normally...

Am I able to message BigFish without being a Merchant Member myself? I'm still a pretty big noob on these forums.

It's being used as a floor graphic. We need to laminate it in order to lightly abrade it so that the floor finish will adhere. Normally we don't make floor graphics with this type of material, but the paint failed, and we also can't create the metallic look the customer wants by printing it on...

I want to use a cast metallic vinyl (either Oracal 951 or Gerber 220) for a project, but I need to be able to laminate it. Neither of these products' specs indicate recommended overlaminates. Could I just use any quality cast laminate? We have some 3M 8509 and 8518 lying around. Generally we...

Hey all. I've been wondering how far I can push my ink cartridges. I'm using HP Latex 310, and the cartridges are 775 ml. I was told by my sales rep to replace inks as soon as the machine says they're low, which usually happens around 100ml. This seems kind of insane to replace such a huge...

We found a textured material that would be perfect for us, but it's 20 mil thick, and the max mil thickness that our HP Latex 310 can supposedly handle is 19.7. Has anyone here pushed the mil thickness limit on their machine before? .3 mil doesn't seem like a huge amount to go over by, but I...

I'm having trouble with perf/flex cuts on my Graphtec 8600. My kiss cuts are pretty much fine - they're off by maybe 1/64 inch on the x axis and I can work around that for now. On the exact same file, though, my perf cuts are off by almost 3/16" on the x axis. I have a picture attached if that...
