Guess I'll go with the Graphtec FC7000-130. What kind of blades do I need for PPF, Window tint and vinyl? Any other recomendation or advise is welcomed, it's my first, never even seen a plotter work....

Some folks use only one blade for all.

I use a 45 for regular vinyl, a 60 for reflectives and metallic vinyl and a 30 for tint....

I buy my blades from denversignsupply.com. About $10.00 a blade or less and they last forever. A tint blade from them last me about 9 months, and that was doing 1.400 cars a year, and tint graphics

WOW I just checked that link you guys had up. Your paying too much for your blades call Denver save a few dollars!

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
