we tried it.. did not stick for us... super heavy weighs a ton, probably a non issue for the auto... probably want to dedicate it to white as it is a bit of a challenger to clean. I think we may have liked better had it had better blades in it, although action make a nice product their blades are not so great IMO.

Tried 'em and no dice.  I got better prints dialing in a single blade for a single pass.  Toss in the fact that you have to move your artwork locations and of course the cleaning and price and forget about it.  I really thought they would have some impact for wb/dc printing, it looks great on paper.

They were very nicely built and the "send it back if you don't like it" was much appreciated so that's a pat on the back for Action and I'm sure someone out there is using these successfully, it's just not us.

How about a "Double Stroke" from CSI? 


Vintage, baby...

We tried it to, it sits in a corner. Don't bother.
