Hi All, I've had very limited experience with window perf. on vehicles. I think I remember that it has to be laminated or water collects in the perforations and makes it hard to view through. True or false?

OK, we've had a few bumps with availability of materials, but nothing really bad till now. We use Matthews acrylic polyurethane as our standard background paint. We also paint all our letters with it. I got a project today that required three gallons of paint to mix a particular color. I...

Hi All, We have an interesting interior wall graphics project opportunity. We have been asked to print and apply wall graphics in a large office space. Is there a matte clear print media for walls? I'm saying matte clear because the walls are different colors and we'd like the background...

The sea serpent was a fun out of the ordinary project, the client wanted to paint it himself so we just carved it and supplied it primed and ready for paint.. The Jeep lettering and striping was done for a client who totally restored the vehicle. He searched the internet to find an original...

Hi all, I've replaced my trusty Roland 545EX battle wagon with a Mimaki CJV 150-160. Although the Mimaki should print considerably faster than the old Roland, I'm not getting the speed I expected. I print Arlon vinyl. Can someone steer me toward good profiles. The output I'm getting is great...

Does anyone have experience cutting copper with a CNC? I need to cut knock-out letters in two 24"x36"x.250" plates. Copper alloy is 110. I assume an aluminum cutting bit would work but I think copper is a bit gummier.

Hi all, I have a recurring order for 5-10k black intermediate vinyl discs 1/2" and 1.5" diameter. My friction feed plotter is fine for typical vinyl cutting but when cutting thousands of discs it wanders a bit. I bought a 4b with 15" and 30" plotters off ebay. They came with a PCX-5D box. Can...

My new printer was installed yesterday. The included software, Raster Link 6 plus is very disappointing. I know new software is always a bit daunting at first but what's up with the ultra low resolution? I liked versa works, it seemed much more intuitive and graphics weren't so pixelated. Is...

Hi All, My go to printer for coro signs is signs 365. I've been asked to quote on political signs 12"x24" (qty) 250. Who would you use for best price and good quality?

I have 36+ unopened cans of bulletin paint, assorted colors. Local pick-up would be ideal. I will pack and ship if needed. $20 handling charge to box up, buyer pays actual shipping charge. Over $1000 if bought from your sign supplier. $300 for the lot. These are still in the 4 QT cartons.

Well maintained machine was running with no issues. While printing a banner I had a head strike on one of the metal hold down clips. All heads need to be replaced. I am selling it as for parts or restoration. It's in CT. $1800.

Hi all, I'm shopping for a new printer/cutter. I've always used Roland so I'm partial to their machines but not married to them. Not looking for UV. I heard horror stories about the TrueVis printers when they were first released. Have the bugs been worked out? Does another company offer a...

Out of nowhere, my computer no longer shows a preview of each Corel file. Instead, there is just a green icon with a white knockout of a pen. I searched how to make Corel files show their content as thumbnails but none of the suggestions worked. Thanks in advance for any insight.

I've been trying to find this extrusion. We are matching some ACP panels that butt together and need to have this extrusion at the seams.

Hi all, I know that in part it is based on your geographic area and your overhead, but it would be interesting to hear what companies charge for a standard real estate foreclosure sign. 24"x36" single sided installed within... say a 1/2" hour drive from your shop. Thanks for any responses. John

Hi folks, I was just contacted by a non profit for digital printing. They need a 62"x118" print. Temporary, interior, as inexpensive as possible and they need it by Thursday;) We can't print that large in one piece and seams are not their preference. I'm thinking walltex or something like that...

Hi All, I'm making a sign that has an element milled from King Colorcore. It seems that all suppliers only sell in a 4'x8' sheet. I'm looking for 1/2" white/black/white. I'm wondering if anyone has a small piece they would be willing to sell. I'm making two 14" diameter discs so 16"x32" would...

Hi All, My go-to supplier for coro yard signs is 365. I have a client who insists on a 300 blue in his logo. 365 is not offering color matches due to covid. Does anyone know of a supplier who does color match printing at this time? Not a big order, 50 double sided 18"x24"
