Just wondering what everyone uses for vehicle graphics or for outdoor aluminum signs? Some of the presets are MAX Impact, Sign and Display, Pre-press US, etc... or is checking "specify profile and ignore default" the way to go? Thanks! Versacamm SP540v w Versaworks.

I am pretty new to wrapping, maybe have a dozen or so under my belt. My wraps have gone well in the past and with every one I was getting better and more comfortable. Here is the problem, the last one I did had me extremely frustrated. I was wrapping a van (4 vertical panels) and I had the...

I searched all over the forum and don't see an issue exactly like mine. I get banding on the right side of my media, it goes about a foot in some areas into my print then stops. I do have a little banding everywhere also, but these black lines are really concerning. It seems to be getting...

...I know this will happen when installed improperly, so I am trying to find a solution. Is the only way to buy a 3M roller for $100+? I was taught once it was in groove just use your finger to seal it in and then apply more heat, something tells me I was taught wrong if this was the result...

I have to put about a 6 ft wide by 3 ft high sign on a garbage truck, but the truck has about a 4" wide raised vertical rail, then flat for a few feet, then the rail again. So, applying the media straight to truck/magnet cant work due to raised/unraised surface. I thought maybe I should use...

Can someone explain this, does everyone agree? Yes, I know it is preached, BUT, wouldn't the old ink just work it's way out of the line. What am I missing? Roland SP540V thinking of switching from Roland to generic... PLEASE don't preach about warranty, I understand Roland's death grip on us...
