Has anyone used the electric vinyl removing machine?
Posted by signworkshop on 29 May 2004 at 13:46Has anyone used the electric vinyl removing machine, made by JAG? I spent 4.5 hours removing vinyl from a van the other day, and got very ****** off doing it at the same time.
Does MBX work and how well?
Advice please!!

Hi.
Removing vynull is always a miserable job.
I usually just use a plain old hair dryer and a L’il Chisler.
Then I remove any adhesive with an aerosol spray remover
& the Chizler, then clean carefully with turps, then Windex.
Remember to charge accordingly! Sometimes if clients
know that there is a fee, they will remove the graphics themselves.
Never did the machine thing. Does it vibrate? 😉 haha

Saw it in use at SignUK and it looked to do the job really well. The guy was stripping vinyl off a metal panel, but just because it worked fine there, he could’ve applied the vinyl that morning 😮 If you get a van thats got 4 years worth of grime, stone chips and a few hot summers on it, no idea whether it’d work as well 😕
Cheap enough to buy and have a pop with though 😀 I’d offer up the dewi-mobile for some test strips, but the paintwork is already shot 🙁

I have just brought three of them to try removing vinyl from a large fleet.
We tested one on our van and it seemed to work well. I have not been on site yet myself to try them out. But will be sometime next week, I will let you know what happens

Hi all have used one to remove reflective vinyl from the works pick-up
took me 4.5 hours and I couldn’t lift anything for two days as my arms ached so much! 😥 Still it did the job and didn’t damage the paintwork.Pete

It was hot here for about a week, then the rain set in again 🙁 All week in the shop, watching everyone else enjoying the weather, I get 2 days at the weekend then rain again 😥 😥 And I was just starting to get a tan as well 😕
