We've been having trouble with 3M IJ180 CV3 Controltac with it not staying down. We've gone a few rounds with distributors and 3M, using 3M profiles (as opposed to the Roland profiles on our Roland SolJet Pro 4 XR-640 using only Roland inks,) and we're still having issues. Surface prep is that...

After 15 years of performance, our Roland PNC-1850 has shown it's first sign of its age.....a broken pinch roller handle. I broke the handle off one of them when pushing it down to lock the wheel up. Now the roller is stuck in the down position under spring tension. Does anyone know where...

Good afternoon All, I have a client who brought an antique wood sign with gold-painted v-routed lettering. The gold looks nice and old. We have been challenged with repainting the REST of the sign to spruce it up, leaving the routed, gold lettering alone. We rolled the sign lightly with...

Good morning all, I'm very eager to hear how some of you are able to roll (or brush) latex paint on a primed panel and get a consistent coat after it dries. I'm having difficulty rolling latex paint and getting an EVEN coat when it dries.....I see rolled areas that are more glossy than others...

Good afternoon all, (and to the half of you digging out of snow right now, my condolences...) Does anyone have a recommendation for a 1/4" cutting tool to contour cut HDU foam that is 2" thick or more? We have a bit from Onsrud (2 flt low helix for foam, per their catalog) that simply does not...

Hello all, We recently discovered the wonders of shooting Acrylic Latex through our HVLP.....now we no longer have to have custom-mixed automotive paint for our HDU signs. Saves big on $$$ and more color options with latex. Plus, the flat finish is the most ideal for most of our applications...
