Watch this before starting a decal business
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2022
- One of the questions we a lot is, how come you don't print directly to your signs or vinyl instead of doing each color separately? This is a great question if you are not familiar with the process and that's why you got to watch this before starting a decal business. A printer - cutter is the best equipment you can get if you can afford it but let's be honest, not many people has thousands of dollars to start a decal business and that's why starting with just a vinyl cutter makes more sense. Equipment and materials used: Graphtec CE6000-60, CorelDRAW software, Oracal 651 vinyl, RTape ClearChoice AT75, Magnum magnetics, rapid tac, Tape application roller.

Hello everyone! Thanks for supporting and watching our content. We will make an updated version of this video, we need to cover a little bit more about printing vs vinyl cutting, to some people this video made it sound like getting a printer was a bad idea or that vinyl cutters are a better option. We need to clarify that that’s not what we tried to express. Although digital printer’s are a bigger upfront investment, they are better in anyway possible. If you decide to get one, you will save a lot of time & money for each product.
Question, I plan on making car decal stickers but don’t know where to start. Right now doing research before I buy anything. What machine is good for making car decal stickers? Also, my budget is around 300 for a machine. Don’t want to waste my time or money. Any advice would be helpful thanks
I always learn something with your videos, thank you so much.
You seem on point
Keep it up good sir
Great info, thanks for sharing!
Professional job.
Nice content always. You guys are cool.
I love how quick and to the point your videos are hermano!
Thank you for your kind words and support 🙏
Another great video👍
Thanks a lot Joe! 🙏
Great job as usual
Thanks a lot brother! We appreciate it 😃
I'm literally just getting into the business, I'm looking forward to seeing your content!
Nice! There will be challenges along the way but it’ll be worth it in the end. Thanks for watching!

I love your business ethics and professionalism. I wish you and your brothers company much success
Hello! Thanks for your kind words and support 🙏 we wish you a lot of success in your business too!
Excellent
Good Video
well explained and to the point
Thank you
Thank you 🙏
Great vids as always. I would like to see your process after a design is done. Is your cutter communicating with Corel or do you import into another program?
Very nice , well done 👍
Thank you 🙏
Great video thanks guys
You’re welcome!
Thank you so much for this video. I worried about that but you have enlightened me. I didn’t want to spend a ton of money on a printer, so I’m going to take into consideration a cutter, it is minimal investment and probably pays for itself quickly. Awesome love your multi color banners and magnets. 😀
Hello! We love sharing what we've learned throughout our journey. Thanks for supporting our content :)
Thanks
I like your method so easy to follow, hi5 guys keep up.
Thanks a lot!
I love this video ❤ How many dollars did you sell it ? Thank u so much
Awesome!
Thank you 🙏
thank you so much for your videos! I have a question, I've seen other people use some sort of printable vinyl i guess it is, where it has the whole design like images and all on vinyl and all they do is just peel off the back of it and stick it to the sign and that's all. What are your thoughts on that material? I hope you know which im referring to i dont really know the name of it i think its printable adhesive vinyl, looks like a sticker of the image and they just peel off and stick. Supposed to be water and weather resistant, just want to start my own business and trying to find out whats best material and cheapest to use 😅. Muchas Gracias by the way!
Awesome.
Thank you 🙏!
lol that vinyl that is wasted…ughhhhhhh lol! Thank you for the info! I appreciate it.
Hahaha! We piled up so much and it took us forever to throw it away 😅
I would be jumping in and taking all that extra vinyl. I use as much of it as I can. Waste not want not. But then again I am just starting my business and I’m not established yet. Business is not fully up and running as I am still learning. I am great at creating things on the drawing end. Doing the weeding…ugh! So frustrating sometimes. Lol!
Great Job You just give me a new income stream . Thank you for sharing. Good work!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching 🙏
Nice content always.. it an old video but I like it... What's the cost for same size with similar picture of a DTF transfer ?
Great videos on your channel. Do you guys have any recommendation on cutting needle brands and angles (45 vs 60)? How long do they tend to last for you? Also it would be great if you guys put a video of what the cuts look like up close when they come out of the cutter. I am using a uscutter and would love to compare
Hello! We have both angles 60 for thicker materials (rhinestone materials) and 45 for most of our vinyl's. The brand we got last time - not the best brand honestly - was clean cut. You can't go wrong with Graphtec blades, you should check out: www.graphtecamericastore.com/
When I apply application tape, I do the opposite. I put the application tape underneath (sticky side up), fix it with 4 pieces of tape on the sides, and then apply the vinyl by unrolling it over. Very fast and only 1 person can do it.
Sounds like a great idea! We’ll try that next time, thanks a lot 😎!
Thank you soo much for sharing your knowledge. May Yahweh bless you
You’re welcome! Same to you 🙏
i have an HP T210 for printing its a great low cost option the 24in wide printer i have was like 700 bucks i made that money back in the first week
How do you like the HP T210?
@@ClownfishDepot it works pretty good I like it I’ve been using it almost a year ink last quite a while prints beat on Matt vinyl but it’ll also print on canvas and magnets and stuff only real downside is getting the print out far enough to trim it by hand it’s not hard but you have to go slow or you will mess up the gears on the roller only real problem I’ve had with it is being able to update hps print preview but it’s not needed really just makes life easier when your able to use there print preview
@Shawns Derby den Thanks for the information. I appreciate your time. I didn't know it printed on vinyl. I'm ideally looking to print on vinyl for items for my fish breeding business. I am going to have to do some more research on this printer. Thank you and Happy New Year. 😊
@@ClownfishDepot your welcome man
Do you have a video on registration marks?
Hello! We do: ruclips.net/video/h1I4LAq-gR4/видео.html
Isn't the graphtecx made by ppl that make cameo ? I have cameo 4 but I was thinking of upgrading to graphtex 15 inch cutter
How much do you charge for a logo like that for my van? Both sides and back
When weeding you pulled the vinyl off pretty fast, but sometimes if I try that the letters will come off with the vinyl needing removed so I go slower and ready to hold a letter with a ball tip poker so it doesn't get lost in the mess. Is there something specific causing this or do you not have this issue?
Hello! Sometimes we come across this issue. The first thing I would do recalibrate blade and cut force, if you have it at high speed, maybe slow it a bit. Maybe type of vinyl plays a role. Hope you fixed this issue, sorry for delayed response.
What size is the cutter? Also, which program you running and is it a pc windows 10 that is running the show?
Hello! Our Graphtec is 24 inch, we are using CorelDRAW X6 and yes pc windows 10.
On what applications do you apply a laminate layer?
Hello! We don’t do any laminating, Oracal 651 is for outdoor use and is weather proof. Usually printed vinyl needs to be laminated, we don’t do that process though.
@@RDIdecals thank you for your reply. I was asking because I don’t have a vinyl cutter but I do have a UV flatbed printer in which i direct print a lot of signs on coroplast and aluminum. I haven’t had an issue with the weather fading the prints but I’d like to ensure they last a long time.
Hi, What design software do you use? Corelle draw? Flexi?
Hello Renee! We use CorelDRAW X6
Thanks
What about the pricing?
I have cameo 4pro and where can bay the materials for that joo
The links are on description of the video if you like to support us 😃
If i want to make a vinly decal of a qr code so ppl can take pictures, does it need to be matte or can it be glossy?
Hello! So far we’ve only used glossy finish and it worked great.
@@RDIdecals gracias!
is this the largest image it could print ?
Hello! The largest cut - not this project - we have done was around 180 inch long. I am not sure what the biggest our machine can cut 😅.
Hello sir I'm form United Arab Emirates. I need magnetic cutting machine. How much price aed ?
