American And Proud 2 Posted October 16, 2009 I am curious what are your most used/popular colors? Black and White of course but what colors are a MUST have in stock at all times for you and why? And what size width x length rolls do you get/use? I plan on mostly using Oracal 651. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted October 16, 2009 black is my main color Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BannerJohn 1,324 Posted October 16, 2009 50% of what I do is red and black. Then comes blue,green, and white. I keep all of these in either 24" or 30". I stock all of the basic colors in either $15" or 12" rolls. I like to have what I need when I need it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelly54487 2 Posted October 16, 2009 I'd say I do 50% white & black which I keep in 24" $20.00 ten yards. Then red, reflex blue,green & dark yellow in 15" rolls $15.00 10 yards. Then everytime I place a order through www. FELLERS.com I try to order a roll of each primary color so down the road I should have them all in stock. I use the ShineRite vinyl and the Orcal 651 high performance. There a nice company to deal with due to you ONLY have to order $75.00 worth to get FREE shipping.

tekcorps 50 Posted October 16, 2009 I order more black and white than anything else, then blue and then red. I have some fluorescent orange and hot pink that I probably will never use up! hmmmm... wonder what a hot pink over flourescent orange would look like?

Buggie Pilot 4 Posted October 16, 2009 hmmmm... wonder what a hot pink over flourescent orange would look like? Throw in a few more psychedelic colors and basically you have what most of the early '70s looked like to me ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
American And Proud 2 Posted October 16, 2009 Thanks for the replies so far. I asked because I am still trying to hone my first Oracal 651,631 order. I had asked earlier about this order in another thread and have swapped a bunch of the 15" rolls for 24". I already have the approller and 2 rolls of clear tape, yellow squeegies, 2 cutting mats roller knife xacto knives, extra blades for my cutter, BGS vinyl, and some other items I bought with my cutter. This is my revised list for Oracal, all are 10 yard rolls to start off with, just wanting to get a nice little inventory of vinyl in stock. This order totals $497.20 but I can add another $100.00 to it if needed. Thanks.

BannerJohn 1,324 Posted October 16, 2009 watch out for that 10 oz banner... I wouldn't use anything under 13oz outdoors . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
American And Proud 2 Posted October 17, 2009 Thanks Jonh I haf read most likely by you to use 13oz banners, this one I just added to my cart in Black as a practice piece, I ordered a white one when I placed my cutter order, both will most likely just be hung on my office wall or out in the garage.

cpwall 0 Posted October 17, 2009 I use red, black, white the most, after that probably pink, orange, blue, chrome, on down the line. I have a lot of colors I don't use much of that I buy 3-6 ft at a time from my supplier, and I can get anything overnite so I don't stress keeping a huge inventory. definitly get 13oz banners, even just for yourself the difference is night and day. I bought the 651 set with 10 colors from uscutter when I bought my cutter and a lot of it has been gone but there are a few colors I haven't even touched, like grey, yellow, and dark green. a lot has to do with your location too, local school colors are a definite.

kctrader 10 Posted October 18, 2009 It depends on what you are doing, but I usually buy 631 in 15" widths. Most of my wall words are small, and there is too much waste in using 24". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
john! 1 Posted October 18, 2009 main colors are, white black red blue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NukleoN 34 Posted October 20, 2009 White then black...most popular. After that it's red, then orange. Haven't needed any other colors yet but I have 'em just in case (and for my own stuff). Since a lot of vinyl goes on the windows of cars...white is pretty popular coz it shows well. Sometimes tho, people want black but then it's still helpful to have a white border behind the black so it can be seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NukleoN 34 Posted October 26, 2009 Expensive, but should be fun! I need to get some metallics too. Thankfully Ordway (signsupply.com) is near me and will cut it down to the minimum size.
