Help with supplies

[Denis Kolar]

I purchased new Graphtec 24" cutter and as a complete newbie, I need a list of supplies I need to buy :)

Blades (Which angele for what), which vinyl, I have seen that there are some liquids that I would need to buy, any tools (Squeegees and weeders I know) and so on.
Homer have already send me a PM with some stuf, but the more info I get it would be better.

Thanks in advance

Your dealer should help with that... Any of the material vendors like Siser, Stahl's, etc. should have info too. I use a Roland 45° carbide tip, it cuts everything I use. I don't do signs, so can't comment on those materials.

Ah, so easy to do when you feel lost for a direction isn't it. ;)

Shoot me a PM of what you are trying to do and I can give you the answers that have been given to me. ;)

I have found Oracal 651 vinyl on 24" rolls and 10' long for $11 each with free shipping if you order more than $70. Is that good price? I'm guessing it is

Also, FDC or Oracal? Which one is better?
Thanks

[Homer]

FDC is junk, FDC is a converter, they do not make the vinyl., they just relabel the vinyl. Avery is crap too. Oracal is great stuff, we use it on everything from wraps to signs. just don't buy 3M. . .

there are other's out there -don't just take my word on it - 3M is a bunch of sneaky bastards. If interested, I'll pm you the info.

As I mentioned in my PM... Greenline or whatever it is called that US cutters has is pretty decent stuff as well.

I personally use it as my throw away vinyl for masking but I'd put out cheap stickers with it as well.  Anything LONG term and I'd go Oracal.

It is Greenstar......And as far as it being "pretty decent stuff", not in my mind......I have some decals on my truck cut from Greenstar (as a test) and they really shrunk and you can see the adhesive peeking out the edges all the way around.....The adhesive collects dirt and it looks ugly......I mostly use Oracal 751 which is about 60 cents a square foot.....If you need to go cheaper, Oracal 651 is about 30 cents a square foot.....
