    hi all been fitting a few promotional signs on the sides of cars for a while now, not my real type of work as it can be hard to get the amount of money needed for a good looking job but wanted to say how great it is now I have a printer, we fitted a good few this week and its amazing the time saved in application, we were doing jobs that normally take a good 2 hours to fit in 30mins, doing it the old way I would have used 4 colours of vinyl layered on top of each other, that’s 4 colours to cut and weed and 4 colours to apply, what a time saver !!!! make the file give it a contour and come back when it printed
    I love the new printer I have printed over 60meters in 2 weeks
    happy days

    I think it must work out better on materials too, but the time saver is just out of this world, cutting and swapping rolls of vinyl for multi colour stuff is a thing of the passed

    rich 😀 😀

    wait while you need to swap for banner, clear, flags, wrap, 4 times a day 😀

    I hope you are charging less for your printed work, otherwise the vinyl people will still have the advantage..
