Is a vinyl banner see through?

Most Vinyl banners are not see through. Blockout Vinyl is the best choice to eliminate any chance of light coming through. Here are some reasons why:

• Vinyl material: Vinyl banners are typically made from a durable, opaque material that does not allow light to pass through.
• Print quality: The graphics and text printed on vinyl banners are usually vibrant and colorful, making it difficult to see through the banner.
• Size and thickness: Vinyl banners are often large and thick, further preventing any transparency.

Overall, vinyl banners are designed to be visible and stand out, so you can rest assured that they are not see through.

Will my vinyl banner be folded or rolled?

• Small vinyl banner will be rolled: We always roll our vinyl banners to ensure they arrive in the best condition and are easy to hang.

Will my vinyl banner have wrinkles or creases from shipping?

• Our vinyl banners are carefully packaged Due to shipping restrictions, banners that exceed 8 feet or 96 inches in length will be folded for shipping. As a result, the banners may obtain wrinkles or creases from shipping.
• However, it is possible for some minor wrinkles To remove these wrinkles or creases from the banner, we suggest gently heating the non-printed surface. Place the banner—print side down—on a flat surface. Using a hairdryer or steam iron at a low temperature to gently apply heat to the non-printed side until the wrinkles come out. DO NOT USE A HOT IRON.
• If you receive a banner with more severe wrinkles or creases, please contact us immediately so we can provide a solution.

What kind of grommets are used on vinyl banners and how are they placed?

• Types of grommets used:
• Metal grommets: #2 grommets that are brass in color with an outside diameter of ⅜” are used for Vinyl Banners.
• Placement of grommets:
• Grommets are placed in all four corners and from there they are placed every 24 inches as evenly distributed as possible. This helps to secure the banner in place and prevent it from tearing in the wind.
• Grommets can also be placed along the edges of the banner: This provides additional support and makes it easier to hang the banner with ropes or zip ties.

How Are Welded Hems Made on Vinyl Banners?

Welded hems on vinyl banners are created through a heat sealing process that bonds the edges of the banner material together. Here is how the process works:

• Preparation: The edges of the vinyl banner material are cleaned and trimmed to ensure a smooth surface for welding.
• Heat Sealing: A specialized heat sealer is used to apply heat and pressure to the edges of the banner material, melting the vinyl together to create a secure bond.
• Reinforcement: In some cases, reinforced hem tape or grommets may be added to further strengthen the welded hem and provide extra support for hanging the banner.
• Quality Check: After the welding process is complete, the hems are inspected to ensure they are secure and free of any defects.
• Benefits: Welded hems provide a clean and professional finish to vinyl banners, helping to prevent fraying and prolonging the life of the banner.
