What do you mean you "hogged off" the area around the letters? This is a pushed through acrylic? I'll look into tissue tape... haven't heard of that before. what do you usually use tissue tape for on substrates cut by the router?

Can't laser cut the aluminum composite as its PVC on the inside and that gets your chlorine gas. Could paint the back of the acrylic and laser cut at an outside vendor but then the adhesive is on the paint and I have no idea how well the paint would bond to the acrylic and the adhesive... Maybe...

yes its clear acrylic. the vinyl makes it their brands colour.

That's a good idea... I think the letters would be too small for the application. The sharp corners would end up rounded which would be a significant departure from the earlier set. I do pushed through acrylic for backlit boxes but they're always so far away from people the rounded corners don't...

never heard of lexel will see if its available in canada.

couldn't hurt i'll give it a go

Certainly... But vinyl backed means chlorine gas.

Bit of a novel here but: I'm doing some wayfinding signage and the design client settled on Acrylic letters with back mounted vinyl (blue) mounted onto some brushed silver acm... we did a batch of 100 for one building and we used our router table to cut the acrylic letters to shape. There's 7-8...

What MIS system did you get?

We use ij40 all the time... But after a year it takes the paper off the drywall. Used to do 180 but its too expensive for most customers.

We've made several of these with 3mm aluminum composite. Do you have the means to make a v groove on these? I'd recommend using one that has a 0.3mm aluminum face so that it doesn't crack when its bent. Usually we v groove cut it on the folds and fold it around some 4x4 posts in the ground. We...

:( that bites... when our HP 570 was on the fritz we were funnelling everything thorugh the s80, stressed the hell out of the production team but at least we had something

No... not local anyways. Would have to navigate importing it but I'm desperate at this point so i'll try anything. only issue is it isn't for aqueous inks...

Had similar issues with the HP570, sent that thing to the dump. Bought an Epson 5070 and pretty pleased with it. It's louder I think than the 570 and the print tech complains that the area to cut it is poorly placed so its hard for him to bend down and cut it down there but other than that it...

I feel like this must be just dependent on where you are... Where I am, my Canon/Oce techs are MONEY. Always there quick and keep ol bessy running (arizona 450gt). My grimco service? Well they send someone and change everything out, don't fix it and I never hear from them again.

Yeah we've talked to ND but they don't seem to do much with aqueous medias. Tried some "natura" which is something similar to nekoosa but it was no bueno.

Hi everyone! I've been using Sihl 3471 (https://www.sihlinc.com/technologies/superdry/) for years but I am unable to get it any longer from my supplier (Spicers). Sihl has only been white boxing it to them but something has gone horribly wrong with the product and the finish on it always comes...

yeah i saw this one but the price didnt match and the front image is the george and willy one but the images inside show its a different frame...

thanks! i'll check it out

Hey everyone! We've been doing facemounts for a long time with various medias and we can no longer find a supplier for a metallic paper to print on our fine art printer. We're in Canada so maybe that's part of the problem but just curious if anyone even knows of a brand that is still made? We...
