  1. Wrap advice

    I am on with wrapping this vehicle. Just need some advice as the vehicle is already black. Also the gold is all printed with fades. I did do one similar a while back and pieced it all in with contour cut wrap, but in places it distorted when it was applied into some of the recesses. Thanks SC
  2. How long to wait for newly painted trailer?

    We recently added new side prints onto an old GRP faced trailer. The previous graphics had been removed but the adhesive had not been removed. It took a lot of time to clean this off and we installed the new prints the following day. Sadly after a week the trailer was showing signs as if it had...
  3. What wrap material to use!

    Over the last 10+ years I have used 3Ms IJ180 and IJ280 for most of the wraps we print and apply. This is mainly due to the ease of application of these products (sometimes). I have noticed that other wrap media manufactures prices are a lot more competitive than 3Ms and in some cases 30-60%...
  4. calculate remainder of roll

    It is not just figuring out how much is left on the roll, but how much was on it when you first used it. I have had loads of print rolls that had a lot less on them than they should have. I have been short by over 7.5 Metres on a 50 Metre Roll!!!! SC

  12. Setting up a new business for my Daughter

    I have purchased an Epson SureColor SC-F500, a Hotronix Heat Press, Mug Press & lots of consumables from my daughters boss. This was all purchased due to her boss and husband having to sell the business (which is a huge moneymaker) due to an ongoing divorce! This is causing a great deal of...
  13. Signlab 11 disappointing

    I am on 9.1 now and may need to upgrade one day but I have 6 copies so it isn't going to be a cheap deal. Also I cannot see enough change to warrant the upgrade. I always found the RIP part of the program was a very complicated and it was as if Cadlink expected you to set up profiles. I am...
