    Ive got some flags Ive got to produce for a customer.

    Has anyone printed any flags on the Verrsa Camm onto the “mesh” type material?

    Did it work??

    Any tips appreciated, the flags are gonna be 2.5 m x 700mm

    Thanks

    Have a look for a polyester twill that is acrylic coated , we get it at about 2 quid per sq meter , makes wondeful flgs , bunting, banners and teardrop type faether POS/banner stuff.
    Mesh wont work well at all , its too rigid and there is no bleed thru at all – IE one side its totally white , the other printed.
    It also does not survive well if its flaps , tending to tear along the “preforations” – makes wonderful roller blinds tho – its a material you can see thru one way and not the other.

    Mark, banner box do printed flags, i’ve had a couple they were really good, maybe they can supply fully done or give you info on what material to use?
    It was like a polyester nylon type material.

    Mark, as Simon has said Banner Box are probably your best bet, they are good but not particularly cheap if you only want a couple, you have choices of sublimated polyester single or double sided or appliqued if you want, all are supplied ready to fly and they are very helpful if you only want advice
