  1. How to remove sunbaked factory decals?

    Whoever solves that problem will be a wealthy person. There are numerous gadgets and chemicals that help, but the solution is still powered by what geckophoto refers to as 'Elbow grease and cuss words'
  2. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    Not sure where you are in VA, but we are in a relatively rural area of MO. I'm not about to claim we are smarter than the city folk, just on a different timetable as the virus spread to areas like mine is slower because of population density. Happy for you that you have more time to prepare...
  3. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    Yesterday two of my largest customers were talking about significant orders; by the end of day they had both closed their doors until early April. Came in this morning in a foul mood, but fortunately have a couple of previous seeds I had planted start to bear fruit. Helpful to have a broad...
  4. Dont know about you, but my buisiness just stopped

    Reading between the lines on your post concerned me about you. Certainly, you need to get medical advice ASAP for you and kids sake.. If you are inclined, might be worth seeking spiritual guidance as well. I feel for you and know there are many out there in similar circumstances. I've had at...
  5. Bid Large Fleet Job using 100 told of vinyl

    No problem, sounds like you have your hands full. Nice equipment to work with though!
  6. Just In Heya from Canberra, Australia!

    Hey welcome. Happen to be meeting with one of your relocated countrymen this morning. My only customer of the day perhaps, so I plan on rolling out the red carpet.
  7. Anyone seeing a slowdown due to coronavirus?

    Second that. Times call for some adult behavior instead of 'he started it! ' like you would hear from children on the playground.
  8. Question What sales opportunities are still out there with everyone on Covid-19 social distancing?

    Graphic related: Just did our first banner ' No Visitors' for a nursing home. Home related graphics for people stuck at home with time on their hands and urge to renovate/remodel Not graphic related: Baby sitting for all of those healthcare workersand those still employed outside home with...
  9. Anyone seeing a slowdown due to coronavirus?

    Apologies to Big Dawg. I need one of those government calculators with all the extra zeroes.
  10. Anyone seeing a slowdown due to coronavirus?

    Right you are - I'd laugh but it hurts
  11. 2 color vinyl decals to be applied by customer

    Print on clear and laminate instead of cut vinyl? Outsource if you can't print white.
  12. Anyone seeing a slowdown due to coronavirus?

    2% of 160 million is 320,000. Still too many if it happens, but ten times less than you stated.
  13. Anyone seeing a slowdown due to coronavirus?

    Same as with rossmosh, it seems as if everything got quiet on Friday and it's continued today. It even seems as if the Robocalls are fewer (maybe they are off scamming virus related targets). Glad I have several funded bigger projects in the works, but even those can potentially be unfunded.
  14. Question Training to install Wraps

    +1 on the theory that introductory training plus practice makes perfect is the best way to get feet wet. Perhaps start on your own shop vehicle and personal vehicle, partial wraps and then work your way up. Stay away from auto 'restyling' unless you are really good and patient with finicky...
  15. The shelves are bare. Where can I get isopropyl alcohol?

    We use denatured alcohol. It is ethanol with de-denaturing additives such as methanol to make it toxic so kids can't drink it. It is stronger than ISO so dilute to 25/75 (glass) or 50/50 alcohol (clean) to distilled water. Buy in gallon can at Lowes for about $16.
  16. Bid Large Fleet Job using 100 told of vinyl

    Assuming the job is legitimate (more on that later) it looks as if you have the bases covered if you factor jburns advice. You didn't ask, but if you were my sealesrep and came to me with this, I would ask several questions: Can it be done with clear substrate and printed? (If you cannot do...
  17. Now its getting bad

    Not sure this has been posted elsewhere, but interesting updated data from Johns Hopkins re Cases/Deaths/Recovered by geography: https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6
  18. Different approach to design

    We use AI for Design files, export PDF for print files, for 1000+ customers and tens of thousands of jobs with design files, quotes, images etc. on an uncompressed 3TB drive array. Also have a process to archive older files on (as Canuck stated) cheap storage. Regardless, to me it more...
  19. Different approach to design

    So what does that make a person who feels Apple products are superior to any other; an appleist?
