When weeding, folding the waste vinyl right back so it is touching the surface can help too, then just pulling slowly and flicking any letters that want to lift with a scalpul blade to pop them back down. Just be sure to not let it catch and stick to the unweeded letters.
Just out of intrest, do you use a blade or tweezers to weed? Personally i never use tweezers.

Hi Andy
I know Knottingley reasonably well. I used to fish with the Winston Hotel a few years ago.

Good luck from Wakefield 😉

Ive been out of the game for a while now, and im just getting back into it. Alot has changed in the last 10 years regarding vinyls.

We have just purchased some Avery jac vinyl, in part of as starter pack. What are peoples opinions on this product?

quote Jillbeans:

Hello Andy.
Glad to hear you are getting back into it in a serious way.
With so many people out there doing stuff for beer money it can be hard to compete. But if you stay firm with your prices and offer a quality service and product that is a big step in the right direction.
Love….Jill

I do believe that it was the "bedroom boys" starting up, offering cheap, usually poor quality graphics for beer money that contributed to the company closing last time round. The aim this time round is for us to offer high quality products and services (as before). But be a little more savvy of our competition and our finances.

And zebra stripes on a station wagon???? :rofl:

hi, thanks for the response

Yes, when powered off. the carriage can be freely moved will little force. The carriage does judder? when turned on, and the rollers do move very slightly, as you would expect when powered up. But the carriage does not sweep up and down to check position as it should when turned on.
