Here is a gold leaf sign that has been there for 15 years. A new maintenance guy came through and sprayed bleech on them, went to lunch and then power washed these ( 4 signs in total). Don't know if something like this happen to yours. We also give a care for gold leaf signs instruction sheet...

Stouse

We have been using the Oriental 23k patent ( prob. Chinese) gold from Art Essentials with no problems. I use Rolco slow size( clear) over 1 shot imitation gold. Depending on the job, I will sometimes use German surface gold. I once ran out of Italian patent and had to mix with the Oriental on...

I went ahead with buying the Seiko cartridges. As far as I can tell they are exactly the same. They even come in the same packaging as the HP ink. All notches match up as well. I called Seiko(and Grimco) before making my move to buy these. I was told that it is the same ink as the HP780...

Epoxy the studs into the back.

I've been painting sign foam brand for years, so I will give you my opinion. I have found that FSC-88 works really good even for brushing on. I've also used Jay Cookes sign primer. 9 times out of 10 times I will spray the primer unless it's a really small sign. Sign foam's SignPrime works ok...

Here is some pics of my 01 Suzuki and 95 Blazer that I painted at my shop.

Here is a photo of my shop.

Maybe try changing to GPGL in interface menu. We cut regular vinyl out of signlab in HPGL mode, but for prints we use GPGL mode when using reg. marks.

We use the color core as well for this use. You can not paint it. What we do if additional colors are needed is to route in about 3/8 and then fill with West epoxy using 207 hardener and a little 1shot. Have done many golf tee signs like this with no problems.

Harbor is our number 1 supplier. I really wanted to get there and see the operation. We have been using them for a very long time. Almost like family to us. Very nice people to deal with.

So how was it? I wanted to go but 4.5 hours one way on a Friday was not working for me. I wish it could have been on a Saturday.

Has anybody switched to using the Seiko ink? I've been told that it's the same ink as the HP ink. Pictures I've seen of the cartridge and the packaging looks the same. I was buying direct from HP for a while then they jumped the price up. Grimco has the Seiko cartridges for much cheaper.

Ok, thanks for the help. I was sweating the jump, but now feel a little better. We just use the rip that came with the printer( I think they told us it was made by onyx) but we have signlab 8 to use as well.

I,ve been thinking about moving on to windows 7. I was wanting to know if my HP8000 was compatible with windows 7. Will I need windows 7 with XP mode if not? I,ve been searching the HP site and only see drivers up to windows XP 64 bit. I always hate changing computers cause it always cost more...

Has anyone had any luck using the 3d tools in profilelab? Taking an image and turning it into 3d paths. I have used profilelab for years but never really used it for making 3b paths. Any tips would be helpful. I am trying to take photos of faces and route into signfoam.

I was a customer of Visualformix when they sold HP ink. Thats was till they started shipping me cartridges that were expired right out of the box. They did refund me, but haven't been back since. Was a good deal while it lasted.

Wow, that was fast. Thanks for saving me some time.

Does anyone know this font? Thanks

We use the ld393 for short term signs.
