  1. Material Failure or Damaged by customer?

    We had a customer come in saying he wants us to repair his back window perf. He claims there was a large air bubble that he tried to press down and it cracked. I am calling BS on this one. He is a new customer and seems like a nice guy but I have never seen a material failure that looks like...
  2. HP wallpaper and L25500

    We just printed and installed a nice 52" x 54" print in one of our offices and it turned out great! we used the profile that came with onyx and it printed nicely. The install was a bit messy with the extra goop created by applying pressure to the pre pasted paper. It did wipe away with water...
  3. HP wallpaper and L25500

    I'm hoping to receive some soon and try a small wall in our studio. Looks pretty cool on the videos I have seen on YouTube. I will let you know how it goes.
  4. Problems print Window Mesh

    We just went through the same issue with 3M IJ8171 perf with clear liner. It won't lay flat even with minimum heat. Head strike every time. Our IJ66 perf with paper liner works perfect! Now I just hope my supplier will let me exchange the 2 rolls I have in stock to a version with a paper liner.
  5. Latex printed on Reflective media

    Thanks guys. We just did a couple on 3m ij5100r and it looks great. My only dilemma now is does anyone carry a 54" wide reflective? I can only find 48". We are applying to alupanel.
  6. HP Design Jet L25500 Opinions?

    I just switched from my vp540 Roland and I am loving the prints. We just did our first wrap and the material felt crisp and solid for install right off the machine. Unlike the Roland where even after gassing off for 24 hours the vinyl still seems a little soft and flimsy. The room the printer is...
  7. Canvas Material

    Bresnik have you tried the canvas yet? I am getting my L25500 later this week and was wondering how it worked out for you and if you would recommend the canvas. thanks
  8. trax panel saw or keen cut

    We have the 100" Javelin Cutter bar made by keenCut mounted to one of our tables and its been awesome. It cuts through the majority of our substrates and it is also great for trimming down prints.
  9. Latex printed on Reflective media

    Hi everyone, I should be getting my new HP L25500 later this week and I was just wondering if anyone has printed on reflective media with it. If so what brand of material did you use and are you using ONYX to RIP? Did it print OK and did the reflective pop nice at night? I have been printing...
  10. etchmark or equal question!

    I have the exact same issues as well. I havent tried rapic tac 2. This is the first Ive heard of it, so I will see if I can get my hands on some. thanks
  11. Siser Color Print II... Works Amazing

    Thanks for the info I just purchased the L25500 with Onyx and I have some Siser colorprint in stock that we were using with our Roland. I was worried that it wasnt going to work with the new equipment.
  12. Car Wrap Question

    We use 3M IJ180 or IJ380 depending on how deep some of the grooves are.
  13. L25500 with ONYX (postershop or production house)

    I was going through the same debate and my rep told me that there were a few more options with production house over poster shop. One of them being the ability to do variable data printing.
  14. How long do most shops

    We wait at least 24 hours especially if its for a vehicle wrap. It I am just doing some coroplast signs or something where the adhesive wont be under a lot of strain than we will lam sooner only if we need to.
  15. 3m 1080

    We just got our roll of 1080 Carbon Fibre. Looks really nice but I did notice that the weave pattern isnt as straight as the DiNoc. It is thinner, glossier and not as aggressive as the DiNoc. We are doing the roof and hood of a new Honda CRZ. It looks great so far!
  16. Check this vehicle wrap out

    cool idea, turned out looking very realistic.
  17. Knifeless Tape

    Just saw there website today and watched some of the videos. The stuff looks pretty cool! I know that a lot of customers would like the idea. Gotta see if I can try some out. If anyone has used it yet I would love to hear your feedback.
  18. Help to cut out MX Decals laminate

    We have a VP540 also and have contour cut the Convex Material with laminate. We use a 60 degree blade and turn the heat settings up a little to help soften the vinyl and it works great.
  19. window perf tip

    +1 on the Primer 94 along window edges! It has worked great for us as well and looks much cleaner than edge sealing tape in my opinion.
  20. Can you contour cut perf?

    we laminate our perf with optically clear all the time. finding the crop marks on perf can be tricky so we just take a black sharpie marker and colour them in so the sensor finds them better.
