kctrader 10 Posted August 21, 2009 They are right you will forget to mirror your vinyl at least once. LOL I forget a lot less since I cut the word "mirror" (in mirror) and applied it on the bottom of my monitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azdecals 3 Posted August 21, 2009 Im telling you now though...you WILL forget to cut in mirror. +1 It won't happen when you're paying attention. It will happen either when 1) your in a hurry, or 2) your almost out of vinyl. azdecals Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sheister 1 Posted September 4, 2009 Nice . Where can that be found. Is it expensive? Looks great! thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pandc 0 Posted September 4, 2009 No I got it at Specialty Graphics for less than 6 bucks a foot. I only got a foot of both camo's (pink & reg). Very reasonable shipping, from where I live. 11 bucks. http://www.specialty-graphics.com/Wild_Fashion_Print_Tshirt_Vinyl_By_The_Foot.html http://www.specialty-graphics.com/fashion_flex_tshirt_vinyl.html Peggy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
