topfitter601 0 Posted July 15, 2008 Specialty Graphics carries glow in the dark. 15" is $9.80/ft I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stormy 5 Posted July 17, 2008 I tried cutting this stuff today and man is it a bitch. haha. i cut into the backing which is the main reason, and i dont understand why, because im using my setting for normal blade setting, and this stuff is thicker. Once I got it off the back it applied much easier than expected to the wall. Very cool stuff. Note: for those of you looking for vinyl, it is also called phosphorescent vinyl. Ordway charges like $220 for a 24" by 10yrd roll. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bowen390 0 Posted June 9, 2013 I have a US Cutter SC Plotter vinyl cutter machine. I have 12 x 12" glow in the dark vinyl sheets and need to cut 15 signs to apply at a local factory in case of power failure. I CAN NOT figure out what to set my speed and pressure on to get it to cut and weed correctly! I have changed the blade to the 60 degree (blue tip) and have tried slowing the speed down to 100 and increasing the pressure as high as 175. Anyone have any suggestions or setting that can help me cut and weed this thicker vinyl? The backing of the actual vinyl is silver mirror like...I would appreciate any help! Thank you!!

jaybyrd 3,770 Posted June 12, 2013 What software are you using. Many programs allow you to set multiple passes for thick material Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
