Saw a post on wrapping Yeeti mugs talking about a thin oil coating used for mold release...could be similar here if its molded white plastic and not painted like rest of car...they talked about flame treating before wrapping to burn it off. Vinyl Primer or Adhesion Promoter would likely help as...

If you are cutting straight lines go buy yourself a hand held metal shear for aluminum sheet or ACP... it makes no dust, cuts faster than a table saw...its like heavy duty 3 bladed scissors that takes a 1/4" potato-fry cut out of middle when it cuts but crimps both edges and doesnt warp...

Hard to see, are those unprinted sections of vinyl or is there holes in the clear vinyl there? Some look like holes and some look like laminated dust bubbles...is there a tiny grain of sand/detritus in the center of them? If they are unprinted section of vinyl (possibly darker/thicker ring of...

Laser cutter or 3d printer can make the base to emboss over...just need a press

looks like the tile has cut the bottom of the design and your contour cut off, which is why I think you dont see red lines at bottom of design...might want to check you dont have an extra tiny little tile at bottom... and its been a while since I tiled a cut with versa but Im pretty sure it...

I have toyed with making fonts out of some of my most used weird font recreations but have never found a font program that wasnt a whole different world. Used Font Forge a bit and made a couple ttf/otf fonts out of some fonts I have had to recreate several times but usually just do it manually...

bought a bunch of cheap import Zuhanshi blades on dhgate.com for my roland that seem to work fine...

For vehicle graphics on a Roland I have never felt the slow speed of high quality is needed...the high speed option is too fast and has lightened colors but the medium 10p 900x600dpi setup I am using on the VG2 and VG3 seems to print some nice rich colors fairly quick... Starting file resolution...

Laser cut clear acrylic then 2 sided lam the printed graphic to the rear...then apply your tape to the back of that...

Sounds like they are looking for the newer hunting photorealistic camo patters with full color leaves and branches and not military camo that used to be blobs but are now pixelated camo blocks... Even the photorealistic ones arent hard to make if you can make seamless tiles but still have to...

Hard to do when I am pretty sure OP said it was the same file printing differently each time...which likely means it is a machine issue with a clogged head or clogged or compromised capping station that is starving one or multiple colors...machine cleanings might move things around a bit and...

I had a problem with shifting colors on VG2 and it turned out to be a clogged drain on my orange capping station...I did manual clean and put lots of cleaner in the capping station as well as scrubbing top of cap sponge with cleaner and swab...do a couple cleanings till all stations drain easily...

If you didnt charge a design fee, I look at it as they paid for you to print/wrap the cornhole boards...any design files would be like a jig used in wood or metalwork to produce the product but not part of it... If I wanted to part ways with a customer I would either ghost the file request email...

Never had good luck removing factory cargo trailer or motorhome graphics...usually some type of vinyl that fuses with the paint/gelcoat...

Depends where it is, that 7-9 year number is only the ever shrinking amount of time that 3M will stand behind their product...it doesn't really have much to do with how it actually lasts in the field. 180c may start to fade and deteriorate after 7-9 years of full constant sun/road wear but...

I think a buddy just took delivery of one of those Italian label machine you were looking at...price sounds right...I could check if it does ribbon... I would doubt they make a full color printer for a traditionally multicolored and very thin substrate like ribbons...especially one so tied to a...

If you are out of the wind and sun using laminated 180... I would tape in position 3-5 places across the top and pull entire backing away down from top and squeegee top to bottom in the middle and work out from there...180 is slidable and repositionable if it isnt too hot so sometimes if you...

3M Gold Squeegee for standard stuff and "Wet Edge" Teflon Squeegees for Wraps or anything unlaminated...got tired of felt and velcro edges that still tend to scratch laminate...the Wet Edge Squeegees are expensive but quite good if kept in good condition.

The VG2 generally does cleaning when woken from sleep after a while or when powered on but other than that its maybe a few times a day...it does a cleaning cycle after you do a Manual Cleaning routine but I don't think you can stop it from prepping the head for storage after.

I've never measured it...I would estimate the VG2 wastes less than that a week tho...VG3 is to new to tell, still have startup waste in it... Periodic cleaning set to none only stops if from running a cleaning cycle periodically during long prints, the normal maintenance cycles are required or...
