  3. what is a good method of removing that rubber adhesive behind vehicle name plates

    I just removed Silverado off the side of a pick up and that thick black rubbery adhesive is left behind. I have tried the vinyl zapper, and although it sort of works it spreads the stuff around without actually removing it. Any other methods tried and true that work? I also removed the large...
  4. Anybody remember this old cutter?

    I remember doing zoning signs with mine.... would do 3 or 4 lines at a time....could go out and have lunch and it would just be finishing...but man did it speed up the process back in the day over hand painting a zoning sign. We had the digitizing tablet as well with the Apple 2e computer...

  6. Metamark cast vinyl

    This is a good enough reason for me to steer clear of the product. I know ND is now stocking it and I have been approached, but I had never heard of the brand...Who are they and how long have they been in the biz?

  12. Useless Graphtec FC8600 won't find registration marks

    I have a Summa d140 that is very finicky and over 8 years I have learnt how to deal with it. I actually found that if I use an eraser on the registration marks it dulls them down and the opus reader can pick them up. Another strange thing I found with this plotter is that I could sit...
  13. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    The media was a General Formualtions clear digital 203 I think.... What I found out is that it has a water based adhesive.... If there is a next time I will run them all through the laminator with a sled. The piece I needed to replace I did just that and the image went down beautifully. It...

  15. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    so as we can see suppliers don't know what they are selling... I would have gone with that had they mentioned it, but cold application was not an issue for this job... figures.....
  16. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    Naturally we got the call from the contractor that there were these blotches in the prints....so I spent 4 hours Sunday morning working on site in the new wing of the hospital. The images look fantastic on the walls but yes as you look close you can detect what I can only call some form of...
  17. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    I considered doing it this way but was fearful of the glass possibly chipping while going through and possible bubbles at the start point....Maybe I should have at least tried one to see how bad it could get.
  18. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    Maybe I worded it wrong..... We printed reverse on clear digital vinyl, we then laminated white over the print so that when applied you can see it..... The problem area is between the clear digital print and the glass. I have seen this happen many times before on plexi glass...usually dark...
  19. Applying graphics printed on clear reverse on glass question

    I have known about this pretty much since being in this business but have never really got a straight forward answer. We printed about 30 odd panels on clear in reverse and then laminated white behind them to be applied to a series of glass panels for a hospital. We used rapid tack to apply...
