Seems like just the usual backlink spammer, he's got links to his site dropped in and hidden within the text.

FWIW I'm also a huge fan of Substance. The material is great to work with, the folks at the company are super helpful, the pricing is competitive and it's made in the US. All wins in my book.

are you sure about that? This rivals some of the layout I've seen.

who do you suggest as a "good supplier?"

I've been running JetBest ink from Premier Colour for about a year and half now and have been quite pleased with it.

I don't know anything about acrorip. I just know that I've experienced similar things before with what I thought was an empty PNG file or a solid white, but when it printed I got unexpected results. You didn't mention if it happens to other files with a clear background, I would try that. Narrow...

are you 100% certain that's not something in the file? What is the file format and what was it created with? Like the background isn't completely empty and has a few light colored pixels here and there that the rip is interpreting as needing the white underbase? That's kind of what it looks like...

so is this basically printing the braille as a UV-DTF transfer then?

Duraco makes all kinds of cool stuff, and if you contact them they will send a bunch of different samples in their pack.

Crazy concept, but if you're trying to match a colored red film why not just print a black to clear gradient on that red was your substrate? I know it's not technically the "right" thing to do, but I've printed on various cast and calendared colored vinyls with plenty of success in the past...

I'm not testing your link. :covereyes:

I think your link is broken :corndog:

Substance is damn good material. I just ordered some more today! :unclesam:

some of the 6 mil vinyls out there are pretty beefy, especially if it's still stuck to it's backing. Might help to narrow it down if you can tell us what it is or what it's being used for. Also, the print quality on that sample looks pretty crappy to me. Lots of banding. :-(

umm.... glass is usually considered a high energy surface that's generally easily "wetted out" or adhered to by adhesive molecules. If his jars and bottles are some sort of plastic (polyethylene, polypropylene, etc), then yeah it could be a low surface energy material .

looks like printed vinyl, probably matte finish and unlaminated (but the latter is just a guess)

Interesting technology. Do you have a presence in the US?

FWIW I've been using JetBest inks from Premier Colour for about a year now (waited until my Roland warranty was gone) and have been nothing but happy with them. https://www.premiercolour.com/collections/jetbest-ink-for-roland-printers

Oh that Continental stuff sound way cool

I've got reflective plastisol screen printing ink that works and looks pretty much just like that. It gives a whiteish/silvery gray color, and a single hit would look faded, but a print/flash/print double layer is pretty solid opacity without getting too thick. I wouldn't underbase with white...
