    what vinyl to use with Luminous sign?

    3M has a transparent black on their sample card, but it just seems like a dark smoke job. Regular black would provide a greater contrast.

    what vinyl to use with Luminous sign?

    3M Translucent 3630 is an excellent film and comes in 65 colors from solids thru frosts. 3730 is designed for LED backlight

    Is this what You had in mind? If you want it as a Vector, I would have to email it to you--Strokes or Fill or both??

  7. I have a small piece of cut, colored transfer heat material that I would like to try out on a tee shirt- I don't have a clamshell heat press yet, but do have a Teflon pressing cloth and a hot hand iron. Think this might work??

    Roadside Banner

    Roof Materials Banner (not mine) It lets passing contractors know this product is available here while waiting in their trucks at the intersection. It is probably freebee provided by the mfr.

    Roadside Banner

    It is mounted on the inside of the fence in a warehouse district to keep vandals from tagging and stealing it, I imagine. If it were (changed to hot pink) like the topless espresso drive- thru stand sign further down the road it would probably be more noticeable or sure.

    Illustrator Effects

    Thanks all..
  13. 'Saw this at the Vets office today- The colors are extremely clear and bright . The weave of the shirt is not showing through the transfer. I have too many other things going to even think about investing in printing and pressing equipment, but I do have some brightly colored and fine gradient Illustrator vector designs that need to be worn, and if soft enough, several of the local quilt stores have expressed interest. What type of transfer is it and who does this excellent printing and transfer work? I don't think it is screen printing as there is a slight "edge". Thanks,

    New and looking for feedback

    I have only used one brand of cutter for the past 2 years - A Roland GX-24 with Cut Studio Software (included free) plug in for Illustrator 5-6, so I can't compare it to other brands, but, I will say, "I have never had a lock-up problem part way through the job, no matter how large, no static electricity problems, or it never failed to cut any way except as instructed by a Illustrator file." It once ran the material off the pinch rollers on a long 18 foot X 23" job, but that was my fault for not getting the material lined-up properly. With a super sharp Clean Cut 60 degree blade, the cutting depth is extended considerably, However, a little more $ for all. hope this helps.

    Cut, Place, Paint

    You got it exactly right harleytuner - The client wanted just the matte black look, then realized that it couldn't be seen well.
