Oracal 970 flatblack problem!?!

[Riskok]

Hello guys

I just got a batch of Oracal 970M-070.
And when i try to apply it there is problem whit small bubbles. I rely wonder if its just me ore the vinyl

I have tried both room temputure and much warmer. Still the same problem. So what i´m I doing wrong?

Pictures will follow shortly. This is the first time it has happend to me.

Best Regards Patrik from Sweden

maybe because it's not 970RA?

I always wanted to yell out "bingo". no bingo playing for me though.not old enough.

970M-070 shouldn't that be 970RA? Shoot, I thought the entire 970 was for wrapping and the M stud for mattblack.

Here are the pictures.

looks like not enough pressure

looks like not enough pressure

either that or a bad squeegee ( with nicks and such ). those are my first two thoughts from the pics.

Looks to me like the vinyl is being allowed to pre-tack.

Hmmm I rely did put all the pressure I could on it even so hard that it got scratches and it still got bubbles.

either that or a bad squeegee ( with nicks and such ). those are my first two thoughts from the pics.

I always try to use a new and good one so the one I used was all new.

Looks to me like the vinyl is being allowed to pre-tack.

I could but we did it a couple of times whit the same result.
I will order the 970RA today so I can keep working on this.

Thanks for your help guys!

The bad news is its not RA, the good news is, those bubbles will go away eventually.

Is there any difference in the adhesive between those two products, or is it just the impression imparted in the adhesive that provides for the air egress?

I will get 970RA in about 4 hours. Then I will try it again and post pictures

How did it turn out? Did you get the vinyl from Signcom by any chance?

Looking good! Is the whole Caddy wrapped in flat black? Talked to my supplier today, ordered 15 sq metres of 975 carbon fiber and 10sq metres of 970RA flat black. Looking forward to trying them out
