is banner vinyl ok to apply for a curtain sided lorry?
Posted by Chris Windebank on 26 January 2007 at 15:18Hi All, can anyone tell me if banner vinyl is ok for a curtain sided lorry? If so how long will it last etc? Done many banners but never a tautliner

Chris, there have been a couple of threads on curtainside vehicles just recently, try doing a search of the boards as you will probably find the answers you need a lot quicker.
APA and Avery are two company’s that have been mentioned in the past and some people who have done this sort of work seemed to get on better with the APA stuff if I remember right.
Georg is 100% right Banner vinyl will fall off pretty quickly as it is not designed for this sort of work, Truck vinyl is a lot more expensive to buy but it was developed for this market and stays on !!

thanks all so far, Avery want 14.00 per metre and APA about 4.00, seems a huge difference in cost, anyone tried both products?

I am not sure, but if it was a new side would it not be a better finish to mask and Paint.? I might be wrong Rob Lambie might have some views on this I am sure.

OK, clients wants me to mask the curtain sider now instead of using vinyl, anyone tell me which ink to use? I take it paintmask from my normal supplier Doro will be good enough for this?
Any help appreciated -
hi chris, see the video demo on banners recently loaded on the homepage mate.

hi rob, saw the new demo yesterday, great stuff. Never used inks before so I need a helping hand, what ink is best for the job, more to the point, where do I get it from?
When is your next demo coming out?
