  1. Why does Sign Warehouse have to suck?

    They have always been this way. I bought a Mutoh Falcon from them 9 years ago and it never printed correctly. They didn't lift a finger to help. I contacted Mutoh and they just told me I had to deal with the distributor(SW). I reported them to BBB and I finally got a call from them and they...
  2. Best material for interior block wall raps/prints?

    I was told applying krylon clear over the applicable area and leaving it for a week before re-applying would work. We are going to test it.
  3. Best material for interior block wall raps/prints?

    As mentioned I use DPF8000 all the time and never had an issue but this is what happened within 24 hrs. These were printed on a JV33, out gassed 2 days before lam. Applied with a rollepro and heat just like always.
  4. Best material for interior block wall raps/prints?

    Evidently certain paints with primer built in and anti graffiti paints can cause an issue. I just went and inspected it and half of it has fallen off. I have never had an issue with PF8000 until this. The solution recommended is to clearcoat the area to be used with Krylon clear and redo after...
  5. Best material for interior block wall raps/prints?

    Just as an FYI. We did some wall graphics with DPF8000 yesterday and they are coming off. I called their tech support and they said that it may not be compatible with certain paints. The gym wall we applied it to was painted. I have the same material from the same roll installed on a rough wall...
  6. Time for a new laptop...

    I agree with Mac book Pro being the best laptop but Corel is very buggy when running on Parallels in my experience.
  7. Strange JV33 160 Capping Station Issue

    OEM capping station? I have had similar issues with a new "non OEM" version.
  8. Realtree camo patterns

    I have the Bushwolf package and it has been well worth it. I don't get camo but we wrap a fair amount of trucks down here in Texas. Mostly oak ambush & woodland ghost. We did one last week. They are easy and no repeats.
  9. Mimaki JV33-160 new firmware- profile issue

    Do you have an image of the rasterlink print to post?
  10. Mimaki JV33-160 new firmware- profile issue

    Pre to post my heater settings are 44-42-48. I like to keep the humidity in the 40-45 percentage range . 55 is not overly excessive. My issue in caldera was corrected by changing a profile setting (enable high speed printing). This is user changeable in Flexi and Rasterlink but in Caldera it...
  11. Mimaki JV33-160 new firmware- profile issue

    I get great results at 720x720 in rasterlink. The obvious is heater settings and also verify humidity for the blotching issues. I find high humidity can cause splotches.
  12. Mimaki JV33-160 new firmware- profile issue

    I have an issue that may lead down a similar path. I just purchased Caldera to run a JV33 and L26500. I had a selection of media I use professionally profiled for both machines. Printing to the JV33 is excruciatingly slow regardless of profile/media/resolution/file type. A 24ft x 4ft banner took...
  13. CorelDraw X7

    What combo are getting success with running corel on a mac? I have used both fusion and parallels and corel is unstable in both. I don't really want to go the dual boot route.
  14. Liquid Wrap

    Florescent colors will fade just like florescent vinyl. There are bright colors that are supposed to hold up better. We are doing some testing with an electric lime green right now to see how it holds up.
  15. Liquid Wrap

    The more coats the easier it will come off and the smoother it will look.
  16. Liquid Wrap

    I wouldn't completely write it off. We have played with it to compare the look, feel, durability etc vs wrap material. We had to know to be able to sell against it. It has its place. The look is all based on quality of work. We had a customer that produces custom show ATV's and side x...

    Welcome from Dallas TX, Cyprus is a beautiful place. I was born in Akrotiri (RAF Base)
  18. l26500 Prints don't line up for contour cut

    Thanks guys, I assumed it had something to do with the heat. I normally just run most of these on the solvents but we are running small barcode decals and the latex does a slightly cleaner print between the small barcode lines.
  19. l26500 Prints don't line up for contour cut

    I am going crazy over this issue. For example, I print 2" wide by 1" tall decals on 54" material and contour cut them. The decals on the outer edge of the material cut fine but the inner ones or offset along the y axis. It is a gradual transition along the x axis from good to offset back to...
