3M wrap not sticking?

[Martin Pearson]

If your boss has asked you to do the research then it is you who should be speaking to the Company that did the job. Not sure it is right to ask any of us to comment before they have been given a chance to investigate themselves.

Wrap popping out of the recesses is a common fault and could be down to a few different things.

1. The prints not gassed for long enough
2. The wrap put into the recesses incorrectly
3. No post heating done
4. Maybe not a cast material (not a wrap film)

These are the questions you should be asking if a wrap is done properly from start to finish it shouldn’t fail.

Thank you for your help Mark, that is a helpful reply.

[Mark Richardson]

No problem

Are you a sign company?

[Mark Richardson]

Hi Jill is your question for me

[Martin Pearson]

Think Jill’s question was to the original poster not you Mark & my guess would be that they are not a sign maker just someone who is now looking for an excuse to blame a sign company.
The fault may well be down to the Sign Company that fitted it but they should at least have a chance to investigate & put things right before anything is said in my opinion.

[Mark Richardson]

Hi Martin I totally agree but it sounded like the guy wasn’t having much luck

How’s the dog is she back to her original colour 😛

[Martin Pearson]

I just wasn’t sure from the original post if they had been given a chance, I’m all for trying to improve the quality of work & peoples opinion of the industry so don’t have a problem if the Sign Company won’t speak to them.

Meg is still quite blue lol, she got a bath but it’s pigmented ink so although an aqueous ink it is water resistant once dry :lol1: :lol1:

Sorry for the confusion, my query was to the OP because it looks like they were just looking to complain about another sign shop.

That being said, perhaps the sign shop did do a shoddy job, or maybe the client requested cheap material.
Maybe the sign shop was a cowboy with little experience.
Maybe the client is the type we as sign makers wish to avoid.
I thought this was a forum for sign makers not sign clients is all.

Good luck with your dog, Martin.

Jills, comment is credible. Original poster is print house, but doesn’t mean they did work.

Questions for poster…

what vinyl was used and series?
who fitted it, your company or a sign company?

if not you, sorry, deaf ears… 🙄
