Blueprint Concepts always use the highest quality vinyls including the ARLON, 3M and AVERY brands, however there are still a number if important issues to consider when choosing vinyl.
Choosing a colour for your vinyl
When choosing colours for your vinyl signage, it is better to choose a vinyl colour, as opposed to choosing a colour that can only be obtained through the use of digitally printing that colour. The reason for this is that if the colour is digitally printed, it will only last as long as the ink lasts and not be as intense a colour as if the colour was in the actual vinyl.
A vinyl colour will last many more years than a colour that is digitally printed onto vinyl. If your logo consists of flat colours (without a gradient) it is a much better option to use cut-out vinyl as it will maximise the vinyls life. Blueprint Concepts have vinyl swatches available if you would like to see what colours are available in vinyl.
Different Types of Vinyl
Different types of vinyl last different amounts of time. Cast vinyl is a more expensive, thinner vinyl which will last longer, whereas Calender vinyl doesn’t last as long and is a thicker vinyl that is more suitable for temporary solutions.
