    Hi All,

    Is there a bubble free clear digital printable vinyl out there. I need to print some big window graphics for a customer to fit and thought it would a good ideal for them to use bubble free to make it easier for them.

    From Mark

    I would use normal vinyl, and tell them to apply wet.
    bubble free does not mean anyone can apply it without a certain amount of experience.

    did some recently with Removable/ repositionable clear vinyl.
    Ment that if they didn’t get it down right they could lift it and go again.

    worked a treat, infact i might offer them a job.

    Hi Mark

    Regardless of bubble free or not, glass is a totally different substrate to fit to. There is bubble free frosted out on the market but to be honest I agree with Peter.

    Print as normal and apply wet. Bubble free DOES NOT mean bubble and crease free to any one who wants a go!

    Glass fitting can change day to day with weather conditions, to hot = to sticky, to cold=wont stick. A good window film solution and a bomb proofing squeegee are the bases for any fitter.

    Hope this may help
