    I usually have the Avery double sided silver chrome in stock, for the small amount of chrome I need printed I just print onto clear and laminate onto the chrome..

    Metamark do one but I can’t remember the code. I’m away for a couple of weeks now but if you call my office on Monday they should be able to help.

    I just looked on a previous email, it’s called MD-BS Exterior Polished Silver. We were printing latex ink onto it at Sign and Digital this year. Very nice media media indeed.

    Thanks Stafford, is this ok with Eco inks? I want to try it on the bn-20 as it may save me some time from layering chrome vinyl but I have read about profiles need to be changing etc.. :awkward:

    I don’t know unfortunately. Metamark gave it to us to support our latex machine and that’s all we’ve run it on to date. We just used a profile for their MD5 gloss vinyl and it worked a treat. Maybe just give them a call and ask for a sample, they’re a good bunch to deal with so worth a try.
