How Vinyl Decals Are Made

[DJGPR2]

where do i find vinyl?

[killerklown91]

@DJGPR2 you can try Oracal products.

Or even on ebay, just type in Adhesive backed vinyl.

I know how hard it can be to get a straight answer from anybody about where vinyl can be bought from.

It took me 6 months to find out, but it was worth it when I found out how cheap the stuff actually was.

Very informative. 2 things...a die is a die - sharp steel blades that vinyl or paper is pressed into to cut. If you cut contours on a vinyl cutter that is not die cutting. It is contour cutting. Separate not seperate.

I am impressed. That is an idea that I never thought of for vinyl is to print on it. I am going to have to look further into that.

Actually there is white ink. You'll need a UV Printer or have your stickers screen printed on clear vinyl. Check out our youtube page.

does that have a white ink on it ?

[neal40000]

theres no such thing as white ink, unless the surface being printed on is darker than white which is hardly ever the case.

usually a printer will digitally track the light areas of an image and process that them parts will not be printed and left white due to the paper being white.

White ink exists many wide format printers are now setup to receive white and even metallic inks like the Roland XC540MT
