Printing on Vinyl

[petehalsted]

In the motocross circuit I keep getting ask for 2 products. Does anyone know what it would take equipment wise to do this, and/or where I could outsource this at a profit.

Product 1: Those Static Cling Window decals, they would like to have one of my photo (which have a custom border with thier name) on thier back window of thier truck, etc.


Product 2: Vinyl graphics like the letter used on cargo trailers. They would like one of my photo's on the side of thier trailer.


Thanks for any and all input

I had a guy put vinyl lettering on our trailer. He used a large format inkjet. Epson & Kodak both make nice large format inkjets. The printer runs from $5000 on up. You can also use canvas & many other medias w/ these printers, as well as photos.

Hope this helps

Hey guys....
for me i use an hp2000cp inkjet with UV inks and i print on either tyvek banner material for my outdoors signs and prints and for the interior windows prints i use colorlucent backlit material. This way the customer puts it up against the glass facing out and when his shop is lit at night he has a backlit sign as well. HP also has a vinyl adhesive back material which i use for vehicle graphics. Even printed some boat displays and they are still going strong. Cost is minimal. Good luck.

Moonlighting,

Can you tell me where your getting your supplies for this?

opps.. never mind, reread your email your using a wideformat printer. My problem is I can't find any material for Med format 16-17" for the Epson 3000

Thanks
