    bisbell do one in the suppliers list and several thicknesses they were also very helpful.

    not a one stop cure to a problem though.
    the versacamm i don’t think has a all alloy bed unlike my pro2 so you will have to add application tape to the bed to stop it sticking.
    the thickness will mean you need to calibrate the feed and you will have to print one quality higher than normal. lays the ink better. = slower.

    i could not get a high enough quality print small stuff so printed to vinyl and stuck it on.

    i am going back some years now but grafityp had a printable magnetic. i have ever tried it before
    but nigel pugh shown me some they had just printed in their demo suit and the print quality was as sharp as a tack! i beleive it had been printed on a versacamm too as i think it was 30inch wide media for that purpose.
    the print was of a map of the world and very detailed…

    might be worth a go?

    alternatively, as chris says, print to vinyl and mount it.

    Thanks I’ve got a sample coming from Grafityp anyway.
    We usually print to vinyl and laminate to the magnetic but got a few to do so thought it might be an idea to try.
