nhoffme 0 Posted June 8, 2010 I saw the cutest car tag the other day. It was what looked like a routed flip flop with vinyl cutouts decorating it. I immediately went online looking for what looked like a pvc cutout. I am unable to find anything at all. I am hoping one of you vinyl guru's might know where I could put my hands on some of these gems. Any help is greatly appreciated....as always.

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted June 8, 2010 not sure on the pvc but the new thing in sublimation is flip flops Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nhoffme 0 Posted June 8, 2010 I don't know if they were pvc...but that's what it looked like. The polka dots were sublimation, but the monogram was a vinyl decal. The substrate itself looked about 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Any ideas? The car it was on was park in front of my shop. When I went back out with a camera, it was gone..oh well.

JoeCamaro 11 Posted June 8, 2010 Im guessing acrylic. It is hot here in Fl. Its cut with a laser cutter. Most use mirror acrylic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nhoffme 0 Posted June 8, 2010 Maybe they are acrylic. At least that what it sounds like. So, they are hot in FLA? Any idea where they come from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeCamaro 11 Posted June 8, 2010 Oh, I meant the "3d" acrylic tags are hot here. Those are custom cut. It works this way: There are some guys with laser cutters, you go there and you can buy the designs they have (most of them famous logos) or you can get custom stuff, just like we do decals, but they do acrylic. So I don't think they sell flip flops just like that, I guess you gave to request them and get an order or something. I'm sleepy, I don't know how clear I am by now.

nhoffme 0 Posted June 9, 2010 This looks similar. The only difference is that this image seems to be metal. The one I saw was acrylic or a pvc material. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
