The run has been printed, i just picked it up at the printers.
However, there was a small issue, one of the corners of the alu bended during printing. (probably the heat of the UV curing lamp)
No biggie though, they offered me a reprint of that, for which i will deliver the material next Friday.
Ofcourse everybody's order will be delivered in perfect condition as you guys may expect/are used to from me.
Crappy cellphone pic, don't be fooled by the picture, it looks very very sharp IRL.
The damage on the corners:
It was inevitable because i changed the "free border" of 3 cm to 2 cm and normally they paste the sheet down with painters tape to the belt.
The 2 cm border makes the "taping operation" more difficult as there is less space to tape, so we relied on the vacuum table, but the material is aluminium and is much more temperature sensitive than paper / cardboard / vinyl, so one of the corners bended and pressed against the print head
It was a gamble, and i learned again something for the future...
Anyway, a reprint will be done for the damaged decals.
Delivering quality is all that matters IYAM.
For those of you who are interested in the printing process, here an old video i shot when i was at the printers for my first run:
Now its time for the worst part... cutting every decal....
