  • Contravision Profile for Cadet

    Posted by Phill Fenton on 26 July 2007 at 09:23

    Does anyone have a profile for a cadet printer (Activasol ink) that I could use to print on contravision type material (actualy Oracle 3676).

    I’ve just done a test print using a banner material profile but the colour is very faded 😕

    Hi Phil

    We just use the gloss vinyl profile on our Grenadiers. Seems to work OK.

    Hope that helps.

    Cheers. Nick.

    Same as Nick, we use the gloss vinyl on our Grenadier too.

    Thanks guy. I’ve just run a test using a gloss vinyl profile and this looks much better than the banner profile I originally tried.

    I have also found out that the colour improves when it has been applied to glass

    Another question – what’s the best way to apply this stuff to windows. Taped, untapped wet or dry?

    apply dry, without tape. very easy to apply. have a practice with an off cut phill, very easy to work with. i once had a trickle of water run down a dry window while i applied it. took me for ever to get it to stick. kept puckering up. 😕
