Guest round2racing Posted July 9, 2009 Do you have to laminate your work? If so, are you laminating by hand or with a laminator? I am thinking about leasing one to see if it is worth it and I need some information so I don't look like the newbie I am.......LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoeBlow 5 Posted July 9, 2009 Very nice. ;) Are you happy with the "Clear Shield", and what is the drying time please? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neron15210 10 Posted July 9, 2009 @ joeblow I did not have any problems so far. Drying time depends of temperature , humidity etc but I would say few hours will do it with nice air flow (fan) James605 where did you get your ink , and what was the price ? Thanks.
