  1. Mutoh Techs????

    Any mutoh techs in the Kansas City area? Need a CR Motor...I think...replaced asap...got a VJ1614.
  2. Stupid Question...

    I've cleaned the raceway and lubed it and it still feels like I have some binding on the right side as it returns to the capping station when I push it manually. Are there any other areas that might need attention if it is binding?
  3. Stupid Question...

    That's what I thought, but when people talk about cleaning it, it seems like I'd break it because it seems so flimsy. Any suggestions on how to gently clean it?
  4. Stupid Question...

    What does the T Fence look like on a mutoh 1614. I am having a E074Err CR2 Current Error mid print and I've cleaned the raceways and am noticing that there is a few sections where the carriage unit is hard to move manually. I know there are a lot of threads out here that discuss this, but my...
  5. Basic and probably a "no-duh" question about lamination...

    I am going to be making a backlit sign with Translucent vinyl. The vinyl is a 2 year outdoor vinyl, but I use a 5 year UV lam. What are the chances that this will help the vinyl last a full 5 years?
  6. FJ Cruiser Top Troubles...

    It was definitely difficult to remove the one I installed and removed a little less than a year later. The one I'm wrapping now, though, I should be able to reposition both the 3M 1080 and Oracal 970RA within minutes of application, shouldn't I? The 3M just ripped, the oracal would rip, but...
  7. FJ Cruiser Top Troubles...

    no...just white instead of body color...
  8. FJ Cruiser Top Troubles...

    Is there something different about the paint on the Toyota FJ Cruiser top?? I've recently removed a one year old wrap I did and the top was incredibly difficult to remove. A ton of residue was left over and it seemed to be a lot more aggressive on the top than the other surfaces. I'm now...
  9. Graphtec FC8000 Flexi Direction of Cut...

    This is a question I've searched for (maybe not hard enough) and have come up empty. I'm cutting out 1" x 48" strips (cutting through) and I need the cutter to start cutting at the bottom of the strip first. When it cuts starting with the top of the strip, and then backs up that material to...
  10. Poly-Metal or Alumacorr...

    Don't kill me for saying this, but MaxMetal, DiBond, PolyMetal, etc. etc. I'm sort of lumping into the same category as Aluminum Composite Panels...
  11. Poly-Metal or Alumacorr...

    Does anybody see a distinct advantage to alumacorr over polymetal for an outdoor sign panel being mounted directly to a building? See my attached pictures, I did the midway ford sign out of polymetal and the baseball sign out of alumacorr. Wondering if there is significant different in...
  12. Rip Error in Flexi Production Manager...

    I seem to get a rip error when my files are larger than 100 MB. I have two files, one for the back of a box truck and one for the sides of a box truck. The back file is obviously smaller and rips fine. The sides I've been able to get down to approx 165 MB and I still get a rip error. I use...
  13. How does this happen (I didn't do this sign)...

    One more thing... Oh, by the way, what is everybody's calendared lam of choice for superior UV protection?
  14. How does this happen (I didn't do this sign)...

    Thanks for the input... Thanks for the feedback guys. I assumed it was a cheap lamination. I also assume if I use a good UV lamination that it will hold up to its advertised rating. Thanks again guys!
  15. How does this happen (I didn't do this sign)...

    It is just alumacor endcaps...the cheap vinyl endcaps you can get from glantz or grimco....
  16. How does this happen (I didn't do this sign)...

    We are doing a sign to replace this one for a client. He says it has been up for 3 or 4 years. It is determinately printed on adhesive backed vinyl and laminated with a matte lamination. I don't know specs, but I do know it gets a lot of sun exposure. They want us to see if we can redo...
  17. Pantone 872...

    I know this is a silly question, but what would be the best way to match the hue of Pantone Gold 872? I'm using Flexi 8.6 and a double sided super smooth PET banner material. Any suggestions?
  18. Yet another Font ID needed...Thanks so much in advance...

    Thanks...wasn't looking in the right place I guess...one of those days. Thanks again, Ben
  19. Yet another Font ID needed...Thanks so much in advance...

    Anything with lowercase letters?
  20. Yet another Font ID needed...Thanks so much in advance...

    Anybody have any ideas on this one. Extensively searched for Nordic style fonts or Scandinavian fonts with no luck... Thanks, Ben
