- In this video, I show a step-by-step tutorial on laminating stickers using a Manual Cold Roll Laminator from Amazon. Ideal for anyone looking to protect and enhance their stickers. Like we do. Simple task, great results.
I find not exposing all of the adhesive at once minimises the chances of dust and dirt getting between the laminate and the sticker
That’s why I was thinking. He must be working in a well controlled environment.
What do you charge for
100 stickers ?
Around $92 for 3". The more you buy the bigger the discounts! Our website has a full online pricing calculator! stickershuttle.com
Awesome video! Great Mimaki back there :)
Where do I get the laminate
Thank you very much man your video help me through my first lamination project.
Does using the cold laminator still have small bubbles in the stickers? I’m using oracal vinyl with 210 laminate
How long do you out-gas your finished/printed media, before you laminate it? rolled up? layed out sheets?
This is great, what laminate media are you using?
GF102
Gf402*
@@stickershuttle thanks
You mentioned the laminate is GF402 - forgive me is that General Formulations? I’ve been wanting to experiment with cold lam. Secondly, any tips on figuring out contour Cut and perf settings on the cutter? I know this is a big ask. Thank you in advance.
Yes! general formulations! Biggest tip is making sure the blade is a credit card depth once inserted. Print 100 stickers. Then set force to like 10 and go up until it cuts thru with no rough edges.
@@stickershuttle thank you. I’ve been doing everything with a kiss it and contour cut for easy peeling, but I’m using a 3M vinyl without laminate. It’s flimsy. Your approach looks great. Thank you for sharing your content.
Hi what kind media are you printing the stickers on ? Thx
Justin, how many orders do you usually process each day?
Between 3-4 right now.
@@stickershuttle Cool. Just getting started. Hopefully those numbers will start going up quick for you. Good luck.
Do you also do heat lamination? Whats the purpose of doing heat vs cold lamination on stickers? For example, I hear some people use matte heat lamination for vinyl stickers.
Addling a little heat stops silvering which is like silver marks over the stickers, very noticeable with dark colours. Most times the silvering comes out on its own but sometimes it doesn’t. A little heat also helps with the adhesive to stick to the self adhesive vinyl. A cold laminating machine is a lot cheaper than a heat assisted one and a manual machine shown in this video is cheaper again but still a good roller.
Why laminate!?
For extended print life both outdoor and indoor.
Sunlight will cause prints to fade overtime. Laminates help extend the life.
