The seams are ok. The photo with the bubbles (image2)....those shouldn't be there if it's proper air release wrap vinyl. They should press out with a finger. The other wrinkles (image 3) is pretty bad to me, and indicates it might be 3m 180C, as I've had that issue with the stuff. They might...

Well that should not be anyone's opinion when you are dealing with CMYK. You can't expect a device with 4 colors (yeah yeah, it might be 6 with Lc and Lm or whatever configuration your printer has) to output a MIXED color right off the bat without tweaking the profiles. That's like expecting a...

I don't advise 3mm PVC for a sign like this. Switch to 3mm ACM, and screws alone will suffice.

Also run them with a colorbar. This helps with color continuity too.

Print and cut one panel at a time I think. You can select/deselect the panels and send them individually.

Print the pattern on vinyl, lay that on the wall. Peel off after drilling all the holes.

Pro Vehicle Outlines has them

Maybe you're not using the 'right' silicone. GE Silicone I is a great adhesive for most stuff. Don't get the regular silicone II sealant stuff. For metal signs we use Lord 810 Signlok.

Paper poster material usually, but for longer lasting water proof posters, we print on the same material for our roll up banners, a polypropylene with the grey back.

must be nice sitting "up there" with no problems of your own.

This is kind of what we do. But it bites us in the butt sometimes. If we have someone scheduled for say 2:00, well they decide to come at 1:00. And then they expect us to drop everything and tend to their job. And they wanna wait. Which 99% of the time, they are asked to LEAVE the vehicle...

For what size sign? Artwork should be designed with mounting in mind.... i.e. keep important text away from edges, allow space for screws/bolt, etc... Also depends on what it's mounted to.

Client isn't always right. Your job as a professional sign company is to advise them their "adamant" request is not going to work, and the etch should be on the inside for this application. Or you should have cut out the area the other sign goes so you are applying to glass only and not vinyl film.

With any problem PDF or EPS files, I will open in Photoshop and most of the time it opens correctly. Then I save as a .PSD with no background, and import to Flexi. Flexi will apply contour to PSD (provided the background is transparent.)

That's object specific, not for all objects. Don't confuse the poor guy.

It's not a program settings change...simply a tool on a toolbar.

You might have switched to wireframe mode. CTRL+ALT+W toggles it.

There is a new automatic grommet press out there that a new vendor showed me. One piece grommets, looks freaking awesome. Call up Rob at Reliable Sign Supply - - 972-474-9900 I think this is the same machine...

The problem is that no one can answer in real time. You're trying to create multiple topic discussions and there is no way in the world anyone can follow and participate like you seem to want. Maybe you should organize several topics and start a Zoom session. Otherwise, start a new thread for...
