Oralite????? What's the difference

Recommended Posts

 What's the difference between Oralite 5500 and 5600?

 

What do you guys use?

 

 

Do you have any tips or tricks for cutting reflective vinyl?

I've been cutting on some Oralite 5500 and it's a huge pain.  I've adjusted the blade and pressure but I'm still having to make 2 passes to be able to weed it. 

I'm also getting some lift in the corners.  

I've moved the blade in very VERY slightly (Talking 2-3* turn) and it doesn't cut all the way through.  I've upped the pressure and it still doesn't help, I'm even doing 2 passes. 

 

Just wanted to see if anyone has any advice to provide a good easy weeding cut without lifting the corners.  

 

BTW I'm using a MH-871

Not sure what exactly the difference is other than what the spec sheet says. As for cutting, I cut some on my MH and didn't have any problems and made some rather small cuts. I did have to adjust the blade out since the stuff is thicker than other vinyl.
