Hi guys,
Any recommendation for some nice and thick vinyl to print laptop skins? I know there is some strong vinyl with grey glue but not sure if this one is ok and if its removable.
any ideas?
I appreciate any help.
Paul

Do you have the cut files Paul? I imagine these have to be very accurate?

Either MPD from Metamark (100 micron) or KPMF Air Release (from MDP) are both pretty good.
I am currently looking at some Fuji media and they have one which is a clear film, adhesive back that leaves no residue and can be re positioned as many times as you want. Have seen a few sheets and was thinking that may be pretty good for your needs.

The clear stuff works well with black designs on Apple laptops, or if like me, you can print white and metallic
