Cheers Retro, I thought that was it.
How to replicate the mirror effect - with a final application of mirror vinyl or does that not work or look good.
Very hard to do... you cant print chrome.. comes out grey. Only way you can do it is to cut mirrored vinyl for the areas you need. Dont weed out... leave the entire piece of vinyl as one... apply to the BG first, then weed out whats not required... your print then goes over the top of this. It must be done dry though and very slowly/ carefully as your water mix tends to get trapped between the edges of the chrome and the glass... very difficult to squeedgy this out. If you laminate the print then you can heat the parts where it meets the chrome edge with a hairdryer very gently.. then using you felt applicator it can be manipulated into the edges and give a perfect effect of the whole thing being one layer
So you put the mirror on first, then the print?
When you do the mirror, do you get it cut on a vinyl cutter?
Is the only way to cut it... you have to make your file first though... you cant cut on a plotter with a Jpeg... you need to draw up all silver parts in a vector format and then cut it
