Very good video. This is probably the first that actually shows what material is used and the process. I would like to know what type printer/cutter and laminate machine is used. Keep up the good videos.

[@SubstanceInc]

Thanks! We are stoked you enjoyed it! We used a Roland VG2 540 and a SEAL laminator, but there are many machines that can do the job. Please give us a call if you are interested in getting started with our material. 800-985-9485

Can you guys do an overview of all your substrates and overlaminates? Also what we gotta do to get a t-shirt?

[@SubstanceInc]

An overview video is something we can definitely add to the list. In the meantime, you can give us a call and we can go over all the products that might be relevant to what you guys do. Email me your next order number with your T-size and I'll hook you up --> [e-mail]

[@DarkSideStudios12]

Those media racks though!...hook us up where from?

[@SubstanceInc]

Pumped you dig them! We made those one off in the race shop. If you have access to a plasma cutter I'll send you the cut files. You can email me here - > [e-mail]

can this vinyl be cut on cheap machines like cricuts?

[@SubstanceInc]

Sorry, but I do not think the cricut will have enough force to cut through the laminate.

hey man, great video. i’m interested in printing decals to make mini football helmets. this is the first video that has shown me an idea of what the process might be and what type of vinyl i should use. could you recommend me what printer i should purchase? i only need small prints so i’m looking for a smaller, affordable printer. is this something that exists or are these type of printers only for large scale jobs? I’m just getting into this so sorry if i am really uneducated abt the whole process. take care
