Vinyl Plotter: Cutting, Weeding And Applying Custom Stickers To Vehicle

CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/
Here’s an educational screen printing video about using a vinyl plotter or cutter to make a custom sticker and applying it to a vehicle window. This is a re-edit of the original longer version where we introduced the Saga vinyl plotters and cutters. Here is the meat of the video with just the action in an abridged version for your viewing pleasure. You can follow along as the vinyl sheet is cut, weeded, and has application tape applied. Then you can see me apply it to the window of my van. A vinyl plotter is an easy way to do your own branding or offer stickers to your existing customers. You can also do storefront window signage and vehicle signage. Doing it on glass makes it easy to remove but you can of course go all out with vinyl graphics on a car or truck. Just remember for larger volume sticker orders, you will have to weed out each sticker yourself and apply the application tape for the customer. That can be a lot of labor. This sort of service is better for larger sized, low volume stickers for business branding and advertising, etc…

WOw... that's one angry R2 unit.

[@CatspitProductions]

LOL... it is sort of like that. I have the old Sharper Image R2D2 and he does stuff like this ;) Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@JM-zb1mq]

It sounds like R2D2

[@CatspitProductions]

@@JM-zb1mq Totally does. Finally able to respond to your comment! It's been stuck in my approvals for a year... lol. Stupid KZbin sometimes prevents me from answering comments. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

Thanks for posting this up. I really appreciate your videos, they have been quite informative. I have been playing with vinyl for about a year now (sign and heat transfer), just getting started into the steep learning curve of screen printing. You might try a large cutting mat for weeding and taping your vinyl, you don't have to fight with the edges of the transfer tape sticking to glass :)

[@CatspitProductions]

You're very welcome. Glad you enjoy my video work. Yes, I do not have a special set up for working with vinyl yet. I was winging it here. But I'd love to get that set up so it would be more comfortable to do as well. Thanks for the tips :) Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@howtosellyourcustomprinted7483]

got to get one

[@CatspitProductions]

Why yes. Yes you do ;) LOL... Good to speak with you today my friend. I'm getting pricing on the quartz flashes for you now. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@sagarpednekar9556]

Very good video. What should be the minimum font size to get good results for this technique?

[@CatspitProductions]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed. I have no set minimum but with weeding vinyl, the bigger the easier ;) Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

When making full sized decals for the back window of an SUV, do I need to curve the text so it's straight after it is applied?

[@CatspitProductions]

If you're experiencing distortion on something large then maybe you could do that. Personally I have never had to do that. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@WBS2K9]

I use a pixmax vinyl plotter but struggle to get sharp corners on small text. Not sure if its the offset or because its a stepper motor? Although ive heard a stepper can be more effective than servo? Any ideas.

[@CatspitProductions]

Steppers work great. Check your blades. Thanks for watching. Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - catspitscreenprintsupply.com/

[@perfectappareltv7909]

What backing material did you use when putting on back of the vinyl before application to the window?

[@CatspitProductions]

That's application tape or what screen printers call pallet tape. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@scottlewis5521]

looked like pallet tape as he already had it in the shop. it works pretty well.

[@CatspitProductions]

Yup, same thing as application tape ;) Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

When cutting a full sized decal for an SUV, should I curve it so it applies straight? Sorry, my original post wasn't from my account.. I didn't realize someone else had logged into my computer. :-/

[@declanreucroft]

Will heat press vinyl work same way ??? What vinyl did you use ? Thankyou

[@CatspitProductions]

No, heat press vinyl will not stick to anything. It's sticker vinyl. That's it. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@NoPlaceLikeMauiClothing]

aloha boss, just wondering. i am making a diy press and i wonder if .. u know those arms on the RANAR 1 COLOR STATION BENCH PRESS ( the blue arm ) i think they call that CEE PURLINS. not sure but anyways i can get those from you .? custom size ? so i can buy brackets and plates from u ? just need about 4 arms maybe but longer. i appreciate a feedback. aloha and mahalos .

[@CatspitProductions]

Hello there. Sorry no. We don't fabricate special screen printing parts or sell parts for building your own. Everything is mad at Ranar so the bench press part does not have a name like that. We call it the deck. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@gunnervinylcutter3517]

do you supply cutter for automotive aftermarket?

[@CatspitProductions]

These units can do window tint templates with the proper blades. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@jonashdjg1345]

Where can I buy this transferfoil? My one is too sticky

[@CatspitProductions]

You can get application tape from a heat transfer vinyl supplier. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/

[@kyle8020]

[@CatspitProductions]

Yes, weeding on larger runs would be time consuming. Thanks for watching! Screen Printing Equipment & Supplies - CatspitScreenPrintSupply.com/
