    online custom shirt companies

    They are not any cheaper than any other screen printer. Right on par for pricing as far as I can see.

    Bubbles appearing hours after application?

    I am curious was it painted or just shot quick with a colored gelcoat. That is the question we will never know as they could of still missed a lot and given it the appearance of over spray on edges with splatter and all. I would assume if it came from the manufacturer it would of not been painted. Popped out of mold, seams ground down then buffed back to gloss and done. Every glass shop I worked in that was the procedure. But as always I could very well be wrong, just my assumption,

    Sounds like all the mold release was not removed from the surface. It was probably not painted just gel coated in the mold.
  5. Most of my stuff is paid for. Just the building. I quess I could always open a roller rink. Haha
  6. I say that every night. Only way I can fall asleep, lol.
  7. I started large format printing about 10 or more years ago. Did a lot of marketing/adveriising for some big brands in the cosmetic and beauty realm. When the market came down I took on printing full time. Then bought my first cutter maybe 5 years ago. Had old experience screen printing so also picked that up. Was a Cad/Cam programmer for quite a few years so lots of pc experience plus been working with Adobe products sine the late 90's. So now a big ol shop, just bought the building I am in, its about 10,000 sg ft, just kicked all the renters out, knocking down walls and bringing in more power. Making room for a flatbed next winter and a new 8/8 press coming in April. Only problem is my debt in this is well over 6 figures. Thinking I should go write G-code again, lol.
  8. what kind of finishing is that mean are they a rough what are they rustic looking? are they stained and clear coated? prime painted polished? Mounting are they going to be on standoffs about an inch off of the wall? I would not suggest mdo unless you have a cnc. Stuff cuts harder than plywood. 10 letters that big depending on finish I would be at least 500. Finished nice and mounted if I made them well over a grand. Why not order from gemeni?
  9. if you do plan on making these I would suggest HDU or expanded PVC, even pink foam is going to be much easier to work with in shape and going to hold paint a lot better.

  15. Use vinyl off and be done with it. Why go thru all the work? Spray it on, eat a sandwich, Pull it off or Hit it with a pressure washer and it will all be on the ground. Simple and easy. I prefer the Reflective super strength if the substraignt can handle it. https://www.signsplusbanners.com/itemdetail.php?sku=914032-12&p=Removal+%26+Storage&c=Removal+Fluids&s=Vinyl+%26+Adhesive+OFF

    Fleet Graphics

    7 year life expectancy. 5 years its going to degrade depending on how it was cared for and so many variables that you have not seen. 5 years on a vehicle I would say is about all you can expect from that material. Why use pen? I would think that would hinder life as any solvent like that in contact with the film and adhesive would have adverse affects over time. Really hard to tell from picture what is happening also.

    Oracal 631 Wall Decal not sticking to wall

    There are various paints it simply will not stick to. Do not assume it will stick to everything cause it will not. What type of paint? I suggest you getting same type, brand, color and trying for your self. Beyond that you really do not know.

    qe 60 error

    the steel rod is to initiate the blade for the sheet cutoff only, has nothing to do with position. When you start up it goes to there to ensure the cutoff blade is not exposed. Generally when I would see that error on CNC machines had to do with encoder in the servos. But it could be much simpler than that. One never knows without look, see, feel, touching it.

    Paying banner gig

    Using cheap materials and aftermarket inks I am sure one could cut the cost of printing 13 oz 1000 x 1000 denier to less than $0.20 quite easily using imported material.
