  • UV or Solvent Ink for vehicle wrapping?

    Posted by Jonathan Bennett on May 25, 2014 at 4:42 pm

    I am new to this. I want to print:

    1. Body Wrap
    2. Contravision

    Do I need UV ink printer or a solvent Printer?

    And if so where is the best place to get it from?

    Thanks

    Jonathan

    Body wrap? do you mean Vehicle wrap vinyl?

    "specifically for vehicle wrapping" you would be looking at Solvent or Latex, more so latex.

    What about the new 3M™ SuperFlex UV Ink used in the Vutek printers … We have just purchased 2 x Vutek printers and they say the new inks are perfect for vehicle graphics with a 150% stretch.
