Can't comment on UK suppliers, but coroplast is very easy to cut by hand. Do you have the ability to print full sheets then cut down? Either way, a sharp OLFA knife and a safety ruler is the cheapest/fastest. Next would probably be one of these: https://www.keencut.com/product/steeltrak/

No problem, happy to help another fellow Canadian. Just a couple of notes regarding your concerns w/ cutting on the Roland - all you have to do is print registration marks out of Versaworks, and select "print only". Laminate your prints, feed them back in the machine (with the...

I would take MPI 2050 and Substance off your list, for this application. Reading and familiarizing yourself with materials' intended application will be a good starting point. All manufacturers will have product bulletins and sell sheets for every material they make/sell. That leaves the...

Well I'll be damned! That will come in handy. Thanks for sharing the details!

Lol thanks. Really curious as we've printed white to black PVC on our flatbed and had to lay premask strips down so we could see the black marks.

Care to elaborate? Or just gonna drop random crumbs until people figure it out.

How long have you worked at Monday.com?? Snide comments related to your subtle spam post aside, does monday.com actually have features specifically related to the sign industry? A friend of mine owns a paving/construction company and has been running everything through monday.com for years and...

How did you do this?

I seem to remember there being something like this, some kind of installer map network thing. Not finding much online though. Found a couple random ones: https://www.escomanufacturing.com/guide/sign-installer-network https://www.thesignsyndicate.com/forums/index.php?/communitymap/...

For sure. I just cringe when we have to pay top dollar for 3M. You're not getting the same value you used to from the "best" manufacturer(s). 3M's QC department must be run by blind robots. I just realized I wrote Arlo (my son's name) instead of Arlon. Ha. I'm not fixing it either.

Damn! That's brutal. Luckily none of your other staff were injured or affected and that guy didn't do anything worse with the truck. I'd leave the blood stains to remind new hires not to mess around. (Kidding, not kidding)

No, I wouldn't use 3551, 3591, 3651 or most Orajet films for wrapping, or much else to be honest. I find they all shrink like crazy even when used on flat surfaces. You'll want to explore cast wrap combos. Every manufacturer will have a couple of offerings, and they will all be at the top end...

Yeah we've had ours for about 4 years and still going strong. Don't use white lots but when we do it's there and ready for us. Surprisingly the white nozzles all come back after a quick clean, despite rarely firing those channels.

I'd also be really curious to know if it's doable. Doesn't some sort of shaker or something have to be used?

I know this has been discussed before, but I wanted to start a new thread nonetheless. We've been getting more and more requests/opportunities to bid on large volume banner orders and I'd like to eventually add some sort of finishing equipment in house to increase our efficiency. Our...

Cool, thanks! I'm always on the hunt for new materials to prep substrates before printing. Our Oce Arizona is very finicky when it comes to prep.

Do you happen to have more details about the "Wonder Cleaner" on your list?

My first jobs out of high school were at a few dealerships.....Porsche/VW, Acura, Honda etc doing detailing. I remember at the Honda dealership they moved the payment "structure" to piecemeal....so a full detail would get x, rustproofing would get y, etc etc. The old lifers would always jump...

They won't, they're a bot...............

Well ain't that some shit. I've NEVER heard of this before.
