  1. Wholesale Roll Labels? Alternate to Stouse

    So what special material do you need and how does the material need to be supplied, i.e. roll width, material thickness, etc. in order to work? Kind of hard to help you if you leave it totally open. I can give you names of companies that make roll labels, but without knowing what you exactly...
  2. Wholesale Roll Labels? Alternate to Stouse

    If they have their own printer, why are they asking you to supply preprinted labels to go in their printer?
  3. Question Epson 60600 leaves an emboss effect on double sided banners.

    That comes from what I said in another answer. The solvents in the ink actually "melt" the vinyl, making it kind of pucker up.

  8. Question Epson 60600 leaves an emboss effect on double sided banners.

    It's more than the thickness of the ink. It's the effect of the ink solvents on the vinyl itself.
  9. Any thoughts on the two fonts in this logo?

    Sell Your Soul (Regular) Engravers Gothic Regular, possibly for the other. (It's really small in the image)

  11. Question Epson 60600 leaves an emboss effect on double sided banners.

    The registration issue we dealt with by using our RIP to set the banner to be completely centered on the material, then making a mark on the heater surface to always start the banner material when starting a print. It worked well enough that our banners were within 1/4" of the desired size after...
  12. Question Epson 60600 leaves an emboss effect on double sided banners.

    We abandoned making double sided banners with our Epson because we couldn't find a satisfactory substrate. We were using double sided blockout material, which didn't show the effect you are talking about, but getting the second side to feed through the machine without buckling or wrinkling and...
  13. Suggestions Hemming vinyl scrim banners - most cost effective way to start out

    Our customers don't care about sewing. They just want a banner and they don't want the grommets to tear out like they do when you don't hem the banner at all. And, we're finding, they don't like the stick-on corners our competitors use instead of hemming and grommets.
  14. Need Help Is coro-platics sign profitable?

    Signs365 is $40/sheet for a s.f. 4'x8' sheet, no matter how it's cut up. What gets me is the $10 next day shipping. When we ship a lighter package of roughly the same size as a box of 18x24's from Signs365, by ground, we're getting charged anywhere from $10-$19 depending on destination address...

  16. Suggestions Hemming vinyl scrim banners - most cost effective way to start out

    1" banner tape and a rubber brayer. Sewing is not necessary unless you're doing webbing and d-rings, really. Now, for outdoor pole mounted banners, sewing is superior. But we have never seen a taped hem fail before the whole banner was faded or shot anyway.

    The brand name is Coroplast. The generic term for the product is corrugated plastic.
  18. Cool Flag Production Video

    First, perhaps because I am Asian myself, I didn't even notice the race of the person adding the ink when I first watched the video. It was only after his race and dress were pointed out to me that I saw it. I then looked up the company on the internet and found that they were Dutch owned. Since...
