Only air came out. I worded that badly. I blame it on not beeing used to think and write in english. They bubbles won't come out with a good result because it has expanded to the point that there's to much vinyl to press it back whitout wrinkling. So instead of me trying to pop and heat...

I've seen the effects of outgassing before, but never like this. But it could very well be the answer. I took for granted that they bought it new, but i'll ask the customer about it, and if they know of any repairs or repainting. It looks like that on all sides.

I tried with a couple of them, but with the bigger ones theres was no way to get them to lay down flat. The vinyl is too stretched out and doesn't go back. Maybe with a heatgun, but there are just too many of them to be time efficient.

I forgot to mention that it's all made in cut vinyl. The black aswell. It's the wet paint theory i'm most afraid of. That would making removal of the old vinyl to a nightmare.

The backstory is: A client had a box truck done somewhere else. Everything was fine for two weeks, then bubbles started to appear. And meantime that company has gone bust... Now they want me to redo it, so i went there and looked at it. And i have never seen anything like it! And i have done a...

Depends on material: Ordinary vinyl = 600 Laminated = 400 Flourescent and such 200

I've never seen that grey in reflective and the yellow looks a bit "off" Could it be printed on white reflective?

My laughter is slowly turning into tears as I realize you're provably right! :oops:

I think you are right about opening doors. After almost three years it's time :)

This is my thinking aswell.

He agreed to print on my material, so he'll charge for machine time. Totally fair.

Just curious about what others do. :) I used to work in Stockholm, capitol of Sweden. We used to help/get help with printing, cutting and such from other companies in the business if someone had problems. Now i have moved to a small town where there are two other sign companies. My printer...

We bought the system used, and that was how it was setup. The three Summa systems i have worked with before all worked perfectly, so i never really looked at the numbers

I tried it today, and it worked perfectly. Thank you!

I have had companies tell me to dress a certain way for installing their signs. I tell them my sizes and ask them to provide appropriate clothes. Either i never hear from them again, or they tell me "oh, it's not that important. Do it in your regular clothes"

Thanks. I will try it out after the weekend.

Cool! I-cut is a great invention :notworthy: Summa Cutter Control says "0,45 mm" This is my third workplace with this exact setup, and i never had this problem. That's why i never thought of checking it before. (And cutting works like it should with Summa Winplot) My support guy has promised...

Yes. I think it is what Zund calls it, and the expression got stuck in my head.

This is what i always do, even if its just two parts. The control freak in me just doesn't trust automation.

So i just got this strange effect: When i cut on my Summa S2 T 140 through Summa Winplot everything is just perfect. But when i use Summa Cutter Control for i-cutting it "overcuts"? (not sure what to call it) These letters are 7 mm high (0.27 inches) I have no clue as to where to start looking...
