  1. The things we do....

    Sort of got roped into a tricky install this morning. Received a call from a body shop that I generally do brake caliper decals for. They do work on astin martins, porches lambo's you name it.... I get there and I said OK where is the car and what do you want put on it.... I was thinking...
  2. reflective with a black outline

    yes!!! that is what I think I plan to do. Thanks
  3. reflective with a black outline

    Customer wants their logo on the side of a transit in white reflective with a black key line all around it. I am thinking that the only way i can do this is to drop the reflective onto a 2ml black, but the only way that is happening is if I do it wet. Yes I know they say you shouldn't do...
  4. the dreaded beeping

    oddly enough, since discovering this was the culprit and making sure it was snug, the beeping has stopped since I posted this....thank you
  5. customer complaining that ink coming off...duhhh

    These were the guys I had do it way back and they doubled the price on me. They had screen printed that version as well.
  6. customer complaining that ink coming off...duhhh

    wrong Gino.... The sharpie marker is something they did not do in the past. I wondered about that and spoke to the purchasing agent again to clarify that this has been the way it was done since 2011 and she confirmed this was something they just started doing. You see people are basically...
  7. customer complaining that ink coming off...duhhh

    After posting this I decided to call them and ask more questions.... I have a feeling this rubbing of a sharpie marker is something they never did with the old ones, in fact I think they may have just tried doing it last week as they had the 100 plates I sent 2 weeks before the remainder of the...
  8. customer complaining that ink coming off...duhhh

    I am in a bit of a pickle.... A good customer of mine ordered 500 aluminum plates 2" x 3" with 4 holes screen printed black with clear openings so that they could stamp part numbers and whatever else they put on them. They reorder them this year and I get a price from that company and they...
  9. Head scratcher weeding issue?

    If you are talking about square cut or circular decals sometimes they weed better doing it from a different direction...top down, bottom up...lots of variables.
  10. 3M samples

    If your looking for regular cast coloured vinyl to cut, then Gerber offers more colors than 3M, which is strange considering that the vinyl is 3M...go figure. You can get a Gerber color brochure from any Gerber dealer.
  11. flexi "print spot colors" option

    I was sending a job this morning and there are many things in print manager that I never click or question, but I see a box that could be clicked that says "print spot colors" and next to it is a mapping button. Anybody know what this does and should I have been using it for the last 8 years?
  12. Mutoh just not getting it done with the reds

    This might sound weird, but when my machine was relatively new and I had no knowledge of what the hell I was doing, I always would say that the printer could print these great colors when it was a photograph. I examined the brilliant reds and blues and wondered why could I not get that from a...
  13. Inc. Ltd. Co.

    This is how it works.... If the customer wants it on then it is on...if they want it off, then it is off... simple no brainer. A sign is not a legal document.
  14. I hate to ask...but anyone know this one?

    Thanks Fred, I probably have that in the gerber software....I hope
  15. I hate to ask...but anyone know this one?

    For Hertz Car rental. anybody know it?
  16. cutting registration marks are rectangular, not square?

    I was laminating a print for cutting and kept staring at the registration squares and realized that they are not square. I even measured them and they are indeed rectangular. I print and cut from Flexi and thought why it would do this when 99.9% of the time they are perfectly square. I was...
  17. Refillable Cartriges

    I have been running JetBest refillable cartridges for over 2 years now and they work great...errr well they did until I found out the so called permanent chip was not so permanent. 2.5 years in we had issues with the printer recognizing the cartridges, then the %^$% show started as my dealer was...
  18. Your thoughts on unconventional yard sign production...

    It all depends on the amount they are looking for. 10 -20 pieces 18 x 24 I will definately do in house, printing on vinyl and apply to a full sheet. Outsourced flatbed trade work always leaves me wondering if I will get paid, as most wholesalers run low res fast output.
