    My mates had a ball when they walked in and saw that banner. They are a good client though and really nice people.

    What printer do you use to print your roll ups?

    Do you laminate them?

    Steve,

    Roland Versacamm SP540. They are unlaminated.

    I’ve had a demo unit for under a year. I’ve used it at outdoors shows etc. Its taken a battering. We don’t have a scratch on it and no fading either. Although its not usually put up in direct sunlight.

    Cheers

    Nice neat work, kiddo.
    I like the Heinz ones, because I live near Pittsburgh where Heinz is based.
    Love….Jill

    They look great Jason.

    Especially like the roll-ups and the last banner.

    How do you finish the banners … are they sewn or double side tape for the hem.

    If tape, what sort do you use?

    Regards, Roger

    Good job Jason. What vinyl do you use for your roll-up prints

    Roger,

    The price week was double taped and grommeted. I think its called Banner Bond. It works well.

    The safety banner is actually double sided so its finished with sleeves top and bottom and sewn. We outsource our sewing.

    abizios: The rollup material is Sihl Satin Polyproplene (3629 I think, I can check for you).

    Roger, I use Power Tape from Halifax Vogel. The same manufacturer makes the self adhesive banner tabs too, if you don’t have your own eyelet punch.

    Thanks Shane, I’ll check them out.

    I have seen the stuff from AGS … but it’s #$%^&* expensive … and I’ve never known whether I’ve got to use the really expensive stuff, or would get away with one of their cheaper tapes.

    I have got a basic eyelet tool … works ok

    Just reminded me of a banner I did over Christmas .. my daughter was driving past, and saw a couple of dear little children "body slamming" it. It held up really well, although eventually broke a couple of the ties holding it up (I wont mention anything about their heritage though .. Peter may be reading this) 😀

    Regards, Roger

    The banner tape we use is just a little cheaper then outsourcing getting them hemmed etc. We only use the tape for a quick turn around time. Otherwise it goes out for hemming.
