  Window stickers/signs

  Posted by R Ferguson on 8 December 2006 at 15:32

  Hello,
  I need to print and cut out some windows display stickers for a local business – the tyoe that go on the inside of the window.

  Would printing on clear and in reverse work?
  Any supplies that i can try?

  Many thanks

  Get some cling and print on that in reverse best to back up with white to get good colour.

  As the printer is CMYK, it lays down the colours based on the media being white.

  I would print on the clear then using a laminator, lay white over the clear.

  The white needs to have a clear adhesive so that the backing is white.

  I have tried this on a couple of things and it turned out fine.

  not 100% but does work…
  print onto clear… then apply white vinyl to the rear. (colours maybe out a little)

  if you have an edge printer or roland pc600. print onto clear and last… apply a flood of white. this wont work on a inkjet printer….
