Looking for Colored Holographic Rainbow Vinyls...

[TauntDevil 19]

Hello all.

 

Sorry to bother yet again.

I am in search of vinyl that this person is using or is nearly the same. They have not yet replied to its brand or anything at all. Not even to tell me off.

Was wondering if any of you knew what it may be. Looking for multiple colors but purple is one of my most used colors and would love this vinyl for myself.

 

 

If anyone knows, please let me know where I can purchase it.

 

Thank you in advance!

Looks like Purple Oil Slick/Rainbow to me. Ebay search "oil slick vinyl" or "rainbow vinyl"

It is that but that is the silver rainbow which I have been able to find along with gold rainbow but I cannot find it with red, blue, purple, etc colors.

This is it and even in the purple color too which is perfect. Odd sizes but works perfect for me. I have searched rainbow vinyl on ebay but it would always come back with gold or silver rainbow instead of colored. Thank you tons!

 

Thanks everyone !!!!

Look at his ebay store he has more "traditional"  size rolls also. FYI, I have never used them.

The sad thing with these is unless you need it in 6-8 weeks its a bad deal. I would not want to wait that long.

 

May want to check out H&H http://www.hhsignsupply.com/productcart/pc/Rainbow-Vinyl-Films-c393.htm

I have seen this but again, no color options. Only silver and gold available. The time waiting isnt an issue because it is for my own use. Thanks though!

If you order it let us know how long it took and how well it cut.

I wonder if the colors hold up in long term sunlight.

Will do. Living in AZ, definitely a good way to test how long they last when the temp is almost always 100 degrees and never any clouds.

Well... I got the vinyl. 16 days to arrive to Phoenix, Arizona.

However, unusable. It came wrapped around a 3 1/4" tube, on the outside with clear wrapping around it which is interesting. Then wrapped with paper.

Different than I usually get which is usually a 3" or 4" barrel with the vinyl inside. However, it must not be long enough because barely opening them up, they quickly tunnel and tunnel bad. Cant even push out the tunnels.

 

Just seems to be my luck recently with recent vinyl that keeps tunneling. 631 and this stuff. 3 orders in a row. Am I doing something wrong? I don't fully flatten it, just expand the roll enough to fit it into my cutter. Once I notice the tunnels, then I will flatten it (because already too late). Or is this all on their side?

Sadly, going to ask for a replacement of this vinyl shipped in a large box instead because even shipping with the recommended names, I am only finding this seller with this stuff (odd).

It's probably a combination of being rolled too tightly and heat.

Most likely. Seems definitely rolled too tight. can see from the white edges that the vinyl moved from the backing paper. Also that when shipped, its extremely hot here probably doesnt help either.

 

I actually managed to save them.

Since this vinyl takes forever to show up and just a hassle, decided to put in the time to remove it from the backing paper and relay it down. Using a very soft and... padded? squeegee that came with my box of Greenstar products. Worked alright. the vinyl has a lot of finger prints etc on it and not sure what to use to wipe those off. Has small scuffs on it from the squeegee but guess that was expected. Its the softest thing I have for this that is flat.

 

Going to cut some decals of it tomorrow and a test cut to put outside on the test hood for the outside duration test.

 

 

Edit/Update: 

 

Well... as you would expect, it was a let down. The adhesive is extremely weak that even when applying it to metal, a magnet would stick better.

Its difficult to cut because you either dont have enough blade depth to cut all the way through the vinyl or you have enough but the vinyl is multilayered so it bubbles somehow and causes air pockets... Either way, useless.

 

Anyone know where I can get custom vinyl made. Someone told me that some companies get custom vinyl made. Not sure where from though. If someone can point me in that direction, would be great since kind of last option.

[TauntDevil 19]

So thought maybe it might be too tight of a roll and heat.. nope... just extremely poor quality "vinyl". Magnet would definitely stick much better than this stuff. The slightly bend and it will tunnel when you flatten it again.

 

Spent the time to flatten out the pink and took pictures somewhat along the way. Cut out random decals that I cut the most. Full waste of money. Sucks.

 

Before flattening...

 

After: Little bubbles here and there. Spent about an hour or so to squeegee them out and make sure it was very flat.

 

Decals cut: (Sorry, started cutting the sections out before remembering to take a photo.

 

Basically anywhere it cuts, it bubbles right after.

I expected low quality just by location. Was hoping maybe it just didnt last long in the sun or whatever but this is just useless.

Better chance selling paper stuck onto the backing from static...  /end small rant
