Still Creek Press recently worked with natural health retailer WithinUs to create and install wall, window and floor graphics for a charitable pop-up to celebrate WithinUs’ five years in business. As this was a one-day event, the decorative and eye-catching graphics had to be easy to both apply and remove – key features of Drytac SpotOn.
Drytac SpotOn – supplied to Still Creek Press by ND Graphics Vancouver – is a 100µ (4 mil) high-quality, ink receptive printable vinyl, compatible with solvent, eco-solvent, latex and UV inkjet printing technology. It is ideal for short-term indoor graphics applications such as wall decals and can be applied with no special tools, not even a squeegee, meaning it is suitable for use by non-professionals and trainees.
Bruce Lee, wide format manager at Still Creek Press explained, ‘We chose Drytac SpotOn for a number of reasons. It was super-easy to apply and it could be easily removed by anyone. In fact I used the event as on-site training for one of my staff members to teach her the ins and outs of an install. We had her apply some of the decals, which she did with ease. As for the floor decals, it’s great we didn’t have to use an overlaminate with it because of the built-in anti-slip surface, and, like the wall version, it is easy to apply.’
The WithinUs pop-up was in support of Covenant House, which works to support young homeless people in Vancouver. Commenting on Instagram, WithinUs said ‘the wall, window and floor graphics looked incredible’, adding ‘it was a very successful event’.
Still Creek Press uses Drytac SpotOn for a range of projects, with Lee stating that Peter Bourgeois from Drytac and Ryan Sherriff from ND Graphics ‘have been a great help with introducing us to this product’.
He added that the Still Creek Press team is currently testing other Drytac products in the field, including ArmourGrab and ArmourPrint, Polar Transit Matte and ReTac Smooth 75.
