  1. outdoor life of pigment ink and lam

    +1. Had an Encad 1000i. About 8 months with 210 lam and would start discoloring and bleed.
  2. cargo trailer prep

    I love customers that think wrapping instead of painting will work. Had one bring a car primed up and full of bondo and ask if I could wrap it. Lol. Told him after it's painted and cured. Don't bother with this,,,,, it will be a nightmare and you will loose.
  3. High visibility ( fluorescent ) yellow

    Lol. Then it was a good trick because it was an exact match to Oracal high visibility yellow. Problem is, I need air release. Lots of places have it on their ambulance.

    Good afternoon. Local ambulance service are redoing their vehicles, and they want high visibility yellow ( fluorescent ). Is there a manufacturer that has that in a form of air release? Thanks
  6. Is there a big difference between Q54 and FC8000-54

    We ordered a Q from signwarehouse, and their PrismJet printer and actually got the Mutoh ValueJet and the fc8000. A friend ordered a few weeks after us and got their brand. I guess it depends what they have in stock. Lol. All that to say that I used his Q, and it's the exact same as my fc8000...
  7. MDO covered with vinyl

    Hey Baz,,,, what brand do you use? For full 4x8, we use Alupanel. For the small stuff we use Tru-Stock. Never had a problem with Alupanel, but it is more expensive then most. We haven't done a MDO sign in a year. Love ACM, lol.
  8. Giving away the farm/Sign shop..... Very Scary

    Wow! Maybe it's the small town difference, we don't have O-Rama places around here, just a few local shops. I charge more for coroplast signs. I don't do a lot of little stuff, but when I do,,,, I charge! Minimum for boat #'s is usually $45. Did a set last week for $90. Our printed banner...
  9. Louis' Family Restaurant Sign (before/after)

    Very nice Jill
  10. Temp for printing on Oracal 651

    If you lam it yes. You'd be surprised what they can print on. Like most here know, if you're stuck and need to print on clear, print on lam,,,,, not the same as clear vinyl but works.
  11. Bootcamp Women beating cancer

    Hey man, as soon as I get to the shop I will for sure. My sister has been through it. A few months after she was diagnosed, the Mint came out with a quarter with the pink ribbon on it and she got to do the unveiling in Toronto. Back then I wasn't into digital printing but still did a big chrome...
  12. When the town says "We'll take care of hanging that over-street banner!"

    I do some for the town here. 24in x 24ft long. And they install all the time. This is a very old town. I want nothing to do with the installation.

  16. Rent a space near competitor??

    Been there, moved almost next door to sign shop. We outgrew the place, moved to a location away from main streets and been rocking solid. We don't need to be exposed, walk-ins ain't our thing.
  17. Anyone else just totally slammed right now?

    Crazy busy here in small town Carleton Place, then again we've been busier then ever this past winter. Landed major contracts, the famous Calabogie Motorsports Park, a Nascar team, hooked with a billboard company and on and on. Just loving it.
  18. Logo help please

    Well, I put your new logo to the test. I actually showed my kids and they asked if we could go there. If the target area are kids, I would say it works, lol. Yes the fonts aren't strong, but personally I don't think they need to be for that specific logo. Just my.02
