    Yes. applied before installation. As for durability, this method has proven to be more durable than film laminate on perf for us. We've had a couple customer complaints about the lack of visibility when film laminated too. But do trim about 1/4" away from the window edges and apply some film...

  15. Substrate on a Mimaki JF 1631 Flatbed?

    i run a flatbed, but its not a mimaki. i only have the lamps come on (shutters open) in one pass direction. (left or right). this helps with the heat and prevents 'lawnmowing'. i usually feed thin materials out 6" or so before the ink will start laying down. this gives the material more area...
