The 220 versus a dedicated circuit on 110v is not that much of an issue to me. Either way requires a new circuit to be added to your box and wires/outlets ran. To me the head replacement very often in a high volume shop negates the savings of cleaning chemicals/parts. The constant head...

We use provehicleoutlines.com also for our templates. For most imagery we either create the art ourselves or purchase from istock (pricy). unsplash.com has a lot of nice images also for free.

We have had both here in-house. Both latest generation machines, and even the new solvent/UV hybrids produce around the same end product in very similar time frame. It depends a lot on what you produce as your main product as to what I would recommend. Latex machines run fast, load a bit...

That's how we have our 70675 & 70670 set up now. We were previously using the additional orange ink, but after Epson said "sorry" about some fading we had, we changed up our profiles... We have had these printers for a couple years and only very rarely used the white ink and have never used the...

You dont want just any (pardon my language) 3rd-worlder doing your design. I would recommend Creative Circle or an independent designer familiar with the vehicle wrapping process.

I think Avery or Oracal made some a while ago that we bought...

Just an FYI, I recommend going with the 60600 model. Epson STILL DOES NOT GUARANTEE the other colors... We just installed one last month and love it, it blows away our previous generation Epsons and I thought they were nice. It isn't sucking ink like some older generation solvent printers, in...

We also USUALLY would not have to worry about color shift in our prints either, but when it DOES happen, you will wish you had been using it. It is really simple to turn on in a RIP and it doesn't hurt anything at all to run the panels like this. We didn't have issues for years with one old...

It is an 8-ink machine, but should be 2 of each CMYK. Where are you at? We are just now getting ready to list a JV3160sp for sale.

ALWAYS flip every other tile. On every printer, since the beginning of time.

Laser cut cardboard, then spray paint with a glittery gold metallic.

Thanks for all the knowledge shared here. We go through a LOT of blades here, but we have a "few" people in production. I think we might give the Havels a try, I love their other products and they're a local company.

Thanks Fred!

Anyone know this one? My brain is done working for the day.

Did you create both of the files from scratch, yourself? Or was the first one created by someone else originally and then you edited it?

If this is your first wrap definitely go with vertical panels. Also, you might want to go ahead an subcontract the installation out on this job. Get a quote from a local installer and build that into your price.

Flip every other tile, use 1" overlap on seams, and be sure to give yourself enough extra to go up and over and to go on around the back corners. This is how all wraps are done. By the way, this is actually a full wrap in your photo; the white is just the un-printed area.

Wow, THAT is scary. I'd be very scared of this happening again then, thanks for the heads up!

We laminate a lot of different vinyls, but hardly ever Avery, many different employees running the laminators at a lot of different settings, and I have never seen this type of issue. We didn't have our latex printer for long, but it REALLY looks to be the laminate that is the culprit to me...
