We will be applying new graphics to everything, so there is no need to try to fix those edges that are sticking up. What I am trying to do is prevent that from happening on the new set. I am going to test some of the edge sealer before going all out on the displays. I have a new question now...

We are using 5ml polycarb. What we are wrapping is a display that our customer calls a "base". It is a four sided structure with 2 flat sides and 2 curved sides and the vinyl wraps around in one piece. It ends at a hinge where there is a door to open the display. Here is a photo of where the...

Has anyone used 3M Edge Sealer 3950 on vinyl that is laminated with polycarbonate? I have contacted 3M for their advice, but since they do not have a polycarb laminate they cannot advise whether it works or not. I have some displays that we are wrapping vinyl around. The ones that we did last...

For those of you following this thread, here's the update. We ended up with the 3M 5100 and it was great. Layering vinyl is never ideal, but I didn't have any problems with finishing the rivets on either the first or second layer...they even looked nice! Before I ordered it, I did have my rep...

Love that pin up!

We use dibond too.

Thanks for all the feedback. I found some old scaffolding in the shop that I'm going to try out and maybe get one of those aluminum platforms. 24 feet though...yikes! I'll be staying under 10 I hope!

Those of you with the extendable work platforms that go between ladders...what is the max height you use them at?

Ha! Not quite what you will find in central Wisconsin...

Been thinking about this all day...I'm probably best off just renting a couple hovercrafts ;)

Awesome - thank you so much! Anyone know of any planks rated for more than 1 person/250lbs? I looked at all of the Werner planks and they are all 1 person capacity...

Hi everyone, just want to pick your brains on installing large graphics on a trailer. A long time ago, I remember we would set up two ladders and put a wooden plank between so two people could walk it and install. We don't do that anymore (not sure exactly why, but it doesn't seem too safe)...

Printing the graphics - fantastic idea! But...the customer won't go for printed graphics :/ I'll be going with 3M 5100. Crossing my fingers on the install. Thanks for the input everyone!

Just wanted to post about the incredible service I have been getting from the Grimco Chicago branch. I called today needing vinyl for a project that has a very tight budget. My rep looked into several options and even called 3M to answer a question I had. It is so nice to get a helpful rep every...

This is probably a little late, but I am looking into the same thing and came across this 3M video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTnvbd6xizE

Hi everyone, looking for some advice from those of you with more experience than myself. Here's the situation - We will be doing trailer graphics in reflective vinyl and I am about to place an order for the vinyl. We have to keep the price down, so I can't get premium vinyl. I have found two...

Signspot - YES! Thank you so much!

Hi there! I'm posting because we just upgraded to an Edge FX from the Edge II here and have lots and lots of old foils that we cannot use without Edge FX Conversion Plugs. We were only sent 4 sets and I already checked with Gerber and my vendor and no luck with getting any from them. This is...

Thanks so much for the feedback! I ended up ordering a roll to try today...we'll see how it goes.

Hi everyone, looking for some feedback from any of you who have used Briteline vinyl (Grimco's house brand). We have been using Oracal 651 and my Grimco rep is suggesting Briteline instead because it is less expensive. It makes me nervous to try something that is not "name brand". Any input is...
