we do work for Loreal and the past two years we do a bunch of stuff for them for the pride parade in NY.
big 12 ft x 3ft banner with pole pockets and poles for them to walk with it and a bunch of coro and foam board signs/posters.
we will make what ever they want to pay for. the parade is going...
we are in north eastern jersey close to NY and on wed around 1 or 2 it was just brown outside. i live in north west jersey on the border of PA and it was orange but i figure if i survived riding in the car with my parents smoking and the windows rolled up as a kid then this is nothing...haha
why are you wet applying?
if you are using a mounting table or a laminator you really shouldn't need to wet apply, do you need to reposition it or move it for some reason?
like already mentioned there really isn't anything that is going to be indestructible but this holds up pretty good. (well we haven't gotten any complaints ...yet?)
you want to sub print on .020 or .030 polycarbonate/lexan and mount a 3m adhesive to the back so it will stick. we do a job for amazon, its a printed square floor graphic with a QR code that a robot rides along and reads. tells them what's on the shelf.
we have done two runs so far for them so...
also try surface armor, we get a few different types of masking films from them for silk screened materials. mostly aluminum.
they will send samples for you to test
we have a roland LEJ, fuji acuity and and EFI all three are used for outdoor signage. the EFI we have only had a little over a year so not 100% on ink life but the other two have signs out there over 5 years and they are ok. you are going to get a little big of fade over time but how much...
we are new to the mimaki world but purchased a CJV330-160 printer about 4 months ago through Tyrrell tech and we have a few issues and they were quick to respond and get us up and running each time. we have been a customer of theirs for about 13 yrs and they have always been pretty good with...
did you find an installer in NY yet?
my shop is in Garfield NJ but i go to ny. that area depending on where the actual install is, is about hour and 50 min from me. you can email me details and i can quote the install peter@alpack-pic.com
customer has these curtain trailers and they got bought out by another company so they asked me how to cover it.
i told them to paint them.
i have tried in the past to install vinyl on them but if i do mange to get it installed properly it doesn't hold up due to the abuse they get.
i would definitely use a high tack vinyl. will it rip up the wood? i would think only if it's already splintering but it will definitely be a bitch to remove. probably be messy, leave a lot of adhesive residue
i just installed a two post sign (post and panel) 2 posts, 4x4x8 and put them in about 30" then screwed the signs to them
i charged $300 just for install
figure what you need for the work/proofs you did and taxes you had to pay. if they come back to you refund the difference and give them the artwork you charged for then wash your hands.
if you don't hear back from them then you keep the whole thing. i'm no law expert but that seems like the best...
Gino for president! wait you might not be old enough. the way things are now you don't have to worry about putting grandpa and grandma in the nursing home just put them on the ballot for senate or president
i would use a high tack vinyl with gloss laminate. DPF would work but keep in mind high tack vinyl tend to shrink more than regular calendared vinyl for some reason.
i normally stock the avery 2126 HT EZ that seems to work pretty good for me
all too familiar with the customer doing stuff incorrectly and not taking responsibility.
we send out a proof with approval sheet to sign off on and clearly states check all spelling, grammar, images...blah..blah and so many times things go unnoticed and then they are shocked that we want to...
