Laminating Demo with the BS

This video is to show a process to use with 210 and 290 laminates. These laminates have a thin backing and are otherwise hard to work with using the Big Squeegee. This method can be used on long applications where static is a problem.

This process will make the job go much easier and with just one person. The colored vinyl is so that the process can be more easily viewed on video.

Well i just tried this method using a 50" roll of 290 and it ruined the print with in the first 6 inches. I thought i'd take the cheap way out and but a big squeegee instead of a $3000 laminator, and now i'm paying the price in ruined prints and wasted time. (lets see if this comment stays up, cuz from the looks of it negative comments get deleted about the big squeegee)

@kccaprice I don't delete any bad comments. It is like anything else, there is a learning curve. If this method don't help it may be because I haven't been clear enough in the explanation. If you need more help, you are welcome to give me a call. I do recommend that you practice on a smaller piece of vinyl before tackling something so big and critical.

that's a great idea indeed I'm new in the vinyl business and that tool could be a great help :D

Thank you, It don't take very long to learn to produce high quality work with this tool. It will save you a lot on time and materials. You do not need to pre-mask printed vinyl prior to mounting it.

this is a good idea but it takes to long, i will make a video next time i laminate. i use oracal 210 and laminate quickly by myself. i am new to business maybe 5 months. maybe my way can help people.

@bigsqueegee i have tried it with a 30" laminate sheet. and it worked out better. I think the big squeegee is a good tool for jobs 30" wide or less. Its definitely more difficult to use when its 50" wide. I may try this one more time to see if i can make it work.
