   She wanted some flames on her bedroom mirrors. So I cut out a few little designs with scrap vinyl. Then she decided she wanted to install them herself so I showed her what to do. Yes....I'm a proud father. She'll be installing tint graphics before I know it.

   Which colours should we stock?

   Hi, I asked you all a while ago about which plotter to get, and got some good info back, so thought I'd try this one on you... When we get our plotter which colours of vinyl should we keep as a basic stock? I was thinking: red, yellow, blue, green, grey, silver black and white. Are there any that I have missed? Thing is that I don't want to spend out alot on stock that'll just be sat there. All help kindly accepted again. Thanks guys

    Hi, I am looking at opening a graphics/sign business inconjuction with another business in which I pay no rent or utilities and the shop owners get a % of what I take in. This is just a verbal discussion so far with me and the shop owner, who happens to be a life long friend of mine. Anyway, I am looking plotters, and packages around the web to find what will suit me best. I am not going to be doing window tint only graphics for cars, signs, banners, and window applications.

    I have a lead for a client that needs a stripe installed on their car. The car is a mini cooper and from what I have seen there arent many installers in the area ( or at least they are having trouble locating one ) The lady is a member of a mini cooper club with 600+ members so this also might be an oportunity for someone down the san diego way to get some new business. If anyone is interested let me know and I will pass your contact information to the potential client. The install is a single wide stripe down the middle of the hood and trunk.
