  1. Versaworks 5 - can’t install 3M profile

    Am I bad? I use mostly 180c but also some 40c on Versa but never use the 3M profile...I have printed on a slightly edited "Generic Vinyl 1" for years... I print almost all exterior vehicle graphics so I want bright colors...tried the 3M profile but found "Generic Vinyl 1" was a bit brighter...
  2. Squeegee marks on lamimated vinyl

    Just tried an expensive Wet Edge squeegee on my last wrap that worked pretty well if a lil pricey...

  7. Printing trailer wrap suggestions please.

    It gets a bit more complicated if you are also Contour Cutting as you can only stop between crop marks and start it cutting again...but for large panels with overlap I dont bother machine cutting.... Normally sending to Versa I take any artwork with transparency/lenses/drop shadows and convert...
  8. Printing trailer wrap suggestions please.

    Not exactly sure how you are using transparency...I tend to flatten my artwork with transparency or lenses before printing so there is no funny business...the rip is gonna make a big tiff out of everything anyway... but Versaworks will panel something like that no problem...if you line the...
