  Just about anyone who sells them will re-stretch. Check with where you got them.
Tubelite in Atlanta comes to mind.

Out of 6 of the major players we've used in the past for screens, Spot Color supply has done the best job for us and their screens "DO" hold really good tension!!! I would even suggest having them do the permanent block out if you use them, it's pretty awesome and holds up like steel. They also do re-stretches with S mesh. Got a load from them recentl and they are awesome, with a higher quality actual Frame than any we've gotten in the past 8 years, "if you are looking" to add some frames too. Not to mention, they turn the work around faster than anyone we've had stuff through to date. Great guys over there for sure!

Yeah, we've been pleased with the statics and restretches from the Spot Color Boys.

ditto, just sent them 10 more today.  their S mesh restretch is AWESOME!  Not a fan of the blockout though, you get a bath from the pressure washer when you clean those.

hahahah, my screen guy hates that too, but he found a trick, stand a little off to the side and angle your gun in there and not blow back. First time was funny though!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

We get our statics remeshed directly by Murakami, they come and pick them up on a wednesday and drop them all off again the next wednesday. Such a beautiful job they do, all mesh around 28N.
That`s here in Japan of course.

I wonder what they'd charge to come to Massachusetts, LOL?

With shipping usually being the deal breaker for me, a local pick up and delivery service with a manageable route could be great (even with the popularity of rollers)

On this note, shipping can vary greatly depending on carrier, and size of packages. I don't know how the new dimensional weight charges have kicked in with Fed ex and UPS, but up to last year, the difference between shipping 12 rather than two packs of 6 was shockingly higher. Even surprised some dealers/stretchers!

Scott, I know y'all offer the S mesh stretching with permanent blockout now, but you only have a few mesh counts available.  They are the common counts and that is great, but I was wondering if you would be willing or able to do a custom mesh count.  Specifically, I have been wanting to try out a 100S for a few tests.  I know Alan loves his 120S on his rollers, but I wanted to test a bit more of an extreme between the 135S static and a lower/more open S mesh like the 100S.  Thoughts?

I have no problem helping you guys test other S-mesh counts. We can order some of the other S-mesh counts in for you. If you want to email or call in an order I can cut a PO for the other mesh counts!!!

If you order 100S I will gladly take two screens (23x31) asap.  I can mail you the frames early next week.  Not sure if anyone else would be interested, but I would imagine some others might be.
