  1. need a super vivid mirror chrome vinyl

    The only thing I’ve found with a real mirror finish is a product by ASLAN, seems like now they have representation in the US by PolyTape. Not sure if that particular product is available.
  2. Removing encoder reader on Epilog 24EX

    Hi there, I recently bought an old Epilog 24EX, and am new to laser engraving. We have run a couple of tests, and generally successful, but now started doing a couple of horizontal lines in the raster (at the same y area for different files, file attached) and thought to look inside/under the...
  3. HP 364 losing color at end of print

    Thanks, had not seen that tip about shaking the cartridges.
  4. HP 364 losing color at end of print

    Appreciate this balstestrat. The printheads are not the newest, they were installed on mid 2019, except for one, the ones with most usage are at about 3500. Since my post, I went ahead and did some scary maneuvers that seemed to have solved the issue: 1) took each printhead out and gently...
  5. HP 364 losing color at end of print

    Hi fellow HP'ers, I'm having an issue with my HP 365, that I did not have before since my 26500 (which was the main reason we had to change over). So, since this is a material I use very frequently (Substance 2755 gloss), I did a few tweaks per HP instructions such as increase the optimizer...
  6. FB700 Gray Balance has pink hues. What do I do?

    I've had that issue with the HP 365, very annoying. The Pantones are nowhere near where they need to be, also had problems with the purples. From the ONYX you can go to Color Correction / Tools / Named Color Corrections - if they are Pantones, with filter it will give you the option of changing...
  7. Ultra wide poster type print

    Hi, I know some of you have very wide printers. I have a client needing a one piece print about 85"x145" in a matte type finish (prefer laminated with matte lam, or the material itself, is protected). I'm thinking something in the semi-rigid film category, nothing with texture, has to be a...
  8. This job scares me...

    When I haven't followed my gut feelings about a client, it usually was not the best ending. The latest with a dispensary character, one day I'm his BFF (according to him), the next he's bad mouthing me and basically getting out of paying the last bit. For this time we left it at that, with him...
  9. Suggestions Looking for satin / luster look adhesive material

    Finally used Substance Incorporated 2755 matte, printed with the HP just a little bit of luster/satin look. Bubble free and white adhesive (original was gray but the backs are not much seen).
  10. Anyone have a replacement source for the InstantOne Vinyl?

    I have had some great success with Substance Incorporated, maybe a little more, @$199.95 both the PM 2755 & laminate PL 3150. I was using 3M IJ35C, but was not too happy when the color of one 54" roll and one of 60" were totally different! I can also recommend BritelineUV from Grimco laminate.
  11. Roll Cradles

    Can't see your image, D Fleming - thanks
  12. Olive LED out of business?

    Thanks, Rick. I just checked on my phone and all is OK; maybe it was momentarily down.
  13. Olive LED out of business?

    Hi, was wondering anyone know what happened to OLIVE LED, their website is down. We bought a few items from them, not the fanciest, but those have been running well without interruptions. Thanks.
  14. Suggestions GFP cold roll laminator

    Same here, I’ve been using isopropyl alcohol on the rollers for a long time. I almost wash them with that and a low lint paper towel and get all the junk off. My laminator is Drytac and the rollers are reddish.
  15. What substrate is this?

    Hi Sign Brad, Would you be interested in quoting us some brushed silver laminated logos and letters, interior use. The client is looking for foam, but there are some elements that are very thin. Please pm so I can send you the files, contact info, etc. Akuarela in Oklahoma Hi Sign Brad...
  16. Need Help Almost identical to Americana Extra Bold

    But difference is that the bottom of the R has a bit of convexity, a la Garamond, and the W points are more rounded. Anyone know what it is, please? Nevermind, I saw another version without the convex bottoms, so I'm going with the Americana XB. Thanks.
  17. Looking for high quality mirror vinyl

    What happens with the Aslan mirror vinyl, is that unfortunately is not available in the USA.
  18. CIT financing

    We leased an HP 365 from Grimco through CIT/Direct Capital and have leased other equipment through them. They have been very easy to work with and communicate. My rep Sean has been always helpful. As for Grimco, I have gotten good support on the HP, but also directly from HP (this is our second...
  19. Clear Shield on UV prints

    Good to know, what we are testing is Semi Gloss, and I like the overall look except for the bubbles, which hope to improve on.
  20. Clear Shield on UV prints

    Thank you, will try that. By the way, have you figured how long your prints may last outdoors?
