    im about to run some tests on oracals new wrap vinyl for printing ill let you know how it works out. i have been it will be exactly the same performance as their digital media which i hear works brill from a couple of signmakers using it. apparently the md5 profile works with it in troop.
    till now i have been using md5 also, but only for flat panel work, as you will know it prints great!
    i have tested the grafiwrap vinyl+laminate applies great, but i was sent a printed sample so i cant comment on profiles etc. however, i know of some on the boards that use it with grens + cadets and reports are good. you can get the free profile download for various types of machine/media on grafityps website.

    I use Grafityp digital materials mainly and am very happy with them. Their downloadable profiles for the cadet are the most accurate I’ve tested. Pantone colour selection via CorelDraw is pretty accurate.

    I use the Hexis V300 for 80% of my vinyl work, 5 year durable, dries really fast and quite inexpensive. Ferrari stamoid banner media from Hexis, cast wrap from KPMF Direct. Specialities also from Hexis as they have the best range that I’ve found and set good prices.

    I’ve got a Grenadier using Scanvec, JV3 2.5m using Shiraz and a Vutek pressvu 200/600 U.V printer, 2 Encad 850’s 2 HP5000 & 1 5500 (using Shiraz)
