  • how can i get vinyl straight onto magnetic?

    Morning guys,

    I’m doing a set of Van magnets for a customer and was wondering what the way is to get the vinyl straight on the magnet? Sorry if this is an obvious question but I’ve only done one set for my self and that wasn’t great. 😳 .

    Thanks
    Paul

    I use a piece of masking tape at the top corners of the vinyl. get it into position by adjusting these. Once happy hinge across the top and bobs your uncle.

    Cheers

    is this the joke thread, go on ill buy it.

    draw a box the finished size of the mag, layout graphics inside the box.
    cut the lot, tape up the whole box and cut down the sides of the box.
    apply graphics, cut the mag down the sides of the tape edge. that way all straight and square.

    multi colour use parts of the box.
