barrell wrap

[WOODBS]

I did some of these last year with cast material, just wondered what you guys thought of me using 3165ra/210? The event is only a weekend deal..

 

[BadAss]

For a weekend deal use cheaper calendered media and no need to laminate. We have done a few that way with the Sand Drags out here....M*

 

[ProWraps]

for two day event, use the cheapest crap that will stick. all rules go out the window for stuff that short term.

 

[WOODBS]

no lam?? more difficult to install huh?

 

[ProWraps]

if removal isnt a part of the equation, then no lam would be fine. if removal is a factor, then again, use the cheapest junk you can find.

 

[BadAss]

Hell, we used 651 on a trash can wrap, no lam. It isn't any more difficult to remove then die cut . Since it is the same vinyl, just printed on...M*

 

[WOODBS]

i'm just thinking of the install..no removal. i did the last one's in 3 vertical panels..with 1/2" overlap..

 

[gnatt66]

Oracal 3621 would work fine, especially if removal was an issue.

 

[javila]

That sounds like the right combo.

Nobody that has posted has apparently tried to apply unlaminated prints.

 

[BadAss]

Javilla,
Read the posts. My first one and the others, say we do not lam on something like that....M*

If you get a heavy material, 3-4 mil like busmark, it's not so hard to install. Won't like the ribs much, but for only a couple days, and cheap.....

Hey has anyone printed on "vinyl mask"? It's cheep, it's removable. I made bumperstickers with it.

 

[CheapVehicleWrap]

A white mask? How did you perfcut it would a liner?

 

[Mike Paul]

What are they being used for? banner material won't work?

 

[johnnysigns]

3165ra's a fairly thick film and pretty cheap. Seems like a good choice although I wouldv'e passed on the lam.

 

[WOODBS]

Do you premask if using no lam? These are done on a 30" printer so they are 3 vertical panels...

 

[k6media]

for something like this short term I would print on styrene and then wrap it around the bin and have double sided tape hold it together..

 

[trimitbyrich]

If you dont want to laminate just use a thicker vinyl, there are many wout there that are 3 plus mil and do not need any lamiantion to be easy to install

+1 for styrene on the flatbed!
Or even 13oz banner

a 2" overlap with 2 strips of banner tape does the trick very well. Keeps labor down and allows you to sell at the ridiculously low price the client expects to pay for a trash can!

We have even printed sheets of coroplast that were cut and formed into a can liner holder, sorta like making a barrel to hold a bag, out of coro.

 

[WOODBS]

will try that next time..but did the 3165 no lam/ turned out good. 3 panels ..1/2" overlap
