No personal experience but I saw an interview and they seemed competent at least.
They also have a US office in case your Spanish is a little rusty.

Thanks a bunch Shaun!

I already have one, but if you don't love it I will buy it from you. They are just that good. You can't put them in the same group of the Iron/Hot head, those will move the shirt(especially fleece) when they are doing their thing. Stamp just does it. Set it and forget it. Only thing, I would say get a few extra teflon sheets it comes with. I figured I could use the rolls of teflon we have here, nope. Something to do with the thickness? Either way if you get a snag in the sheet it is noticeable on prints.

So keep in mind we only print HSA/WB/DC, and the way this was sold to me is that one of the big guys, paramount maybe did a 70kpc run for NIKE with HSA, and it last the entire time.

I don't know if we've done that many units, but we've been on the same set since Feb.

Our second press had it added in August.

Ive been really impressed with how long it lasts, and doesn't seem to have the same off gassing issues as watebased glue.
Can I ask what pallet size you are on? I noticed the print grip sheets are very limited in size. In order to cover one pallet from front to back we would need one and a half sheets. It seems the print grip sheets are designed for standard M&R size pallets.

i believe we run them on16x24" pallets. there is about 2" of space on the top and bottom of the pallet. the reason we haven't swapped our third press, is because our third press runs a digital machine, and we want the pallet surface to be uniform. Print Grip won't make the sheets longer. we've asked.

i see that they have three different levels of tack  - "Medium White, High Tack Yellow, and Super High Tack Black"  - which one did you find worked the best for you?

Need more info.

*Where* did the rip occur? On press? During cleanup?


Possible culprits (not a complete list):

Too high tension
Burr on an ink knife
Burr on a flood bar
Careless teenager in the screen room
Debris in the ink
Debris on a pallet
Debris in a shop rag
You looked at the screen wrong and hurt it's feelings

"Debris in the ink"

One time we noticed metal shavings in the white ink bucket.  Electricians....

Jerry Seinfeld has a collection of letters written in this style, Letters from a Nut...it was a long time ago but I remember getting a kick out of it.  I think he's not confirmed as the author but suspected to be so

Lazlo Toth, was/is another alter ego of Don Novello, best known as Father Guido Sarducci
