I was looking for some advice and average cost per label. I am looking at label printers and also vinyl printers and cutters to do the job. I have a company manufacturing and selling cleaners for boats, cars, rvs, and aircraft's. We have been printing in house with a regular printer but some of our labels fade away. So i need to get labels that are resistant to chemicals and water. I was thinking maybe a vinyl printer and cutter would be more beneficial then a label printer for various reasons but wanted to see what cost per square inch would be. I am looking to be printing 8"x8" labels. If anyone could help guide me to the cost i would appreciate it.

Price Needed For Wrapping A Bucket
racert25 posted a topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
I was hoping i could get some pricing on wrapping some buckets for promotional purposes. If you have seen the buckets at home depot or pep boys this is what i am looking to use. The size flat is 11"x 36" I will have a custom design if the price is right. These need to hold up to using automotive wash products so a laminated wrap material would be great. I would probably be looking at 25 to start. Thanks in advance! -
Price Needed For Wrapping A Bucket
racert25 replied to racert25's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
I guess i did not think it would be that hard to wrap. But i also have limited experience in it. I was looking at a full wrap for the wow factor of the design. This is for my new company selling high performance car, boat, rv and aerospace cleaners. I am making a deal when consumers buy multiple products from us they get a free bucket. I want something that would stand out. -
Where is the best place to get them? I only have two i need for a job but dont mind stocking them. Also what is a basic size for a van door?

I was wondering what media is best for a blast cabinet when etching glass. Currently we use glass beads for our machine shop parts. I was wondering if maybe sand is better for etching?

1/4" is the letters i think the script font i choose is to thin so its not working. Arial cut fine but when i go to pull say an e out the dot comes with it. I think i just need to be patient peeling and find a good script font for this mug -

How small would you say your letters are? So im not trying to do something way to small. -
What printer is good for this? I have read pigment inks are better then the sublimation printers. I would assume 10x 17 is best. Anyone have info on how much per print it would cost if i had my own equipment. At our races people buy shirts with the boat designed on the back. Some teams cant afford the 100+ sublimation run so i am thinking if this would be just as good quality i could offer less quantity runs.

I would open it in Graphtec Studio as is run a live trace and cut from there. Before i did that the lines look really jagged in the program. After it looks clean and I don't see why it would not cut.

I will look into the plastisol transfers. Any idea what an average cost per transfer is?
-
Yea. That is what I was worried about is bad quality. I am thinking to scrap this idea. It may be more of a head ache then what it's worth. Any other alternatives to do one off or low quantity shirts?
-
I'm thinking teams that will buy from me will have multiples to wear. So maybe one shirt will be worn 20 times a year. I believe if I price them right I can add a lot of sales to my graphics business. But i also dont want to put out a product that goes bad in a couple months. I am thinking a 10x17 printer is good but not sure which model. Any recommendations?

Anyone know about the heat transfers with jet pro soft stretch? From what I have read some people say it's good some people say they are not durable. I am looking for something to print shirts that will last 2-3 years minimum.

I am looking at printing with pigment inks now. Anyone know how durable prints are on jpss?

So i did my first cut in my graphtec. Some parts of the letters were uncut. My question is do I bump up the pressure or double cut?
