Graphics for a fish tank project were printed on Metamark MD-SC PVC film. MD-SC is highly plasticised and adheres to glazed surfaces without the involvement of an adhesive. It can be removed, repositioned, washed if needed and is easy to apply.
Portishead and Clevedon based ‘Your Final Vinyl’ is a popular destination with those looking for vehicle graphics, banners and other staple output expected of a well-equipped producer. Laser cut and engraved goodies feature too. Mark Armitage and team aren’t too reserved when it comes to exploring the far corners of the envelope for novel applications.
Customers who call for wraps might not be expecting them to be applied to a vehicle but rather a radio controlled aircraft. Those wanting labels could be using them to properly identify wiring traces supplying servo-actuators. Laser output comprises a bit of a feast – clocks and fuselage stands are on the menu.
Among Armitage’s most recent deviations into the realms of the exotic are products of accident rather than design. Having decided his own aquarium at home could use a bit of additional scenery, Armitage printed it and applied it to the back of his tank. It didn’t take long before other aquarists were asking Armitage for substantially the same thing and so a new product was born.
Word continued to spread via social networks and interest was generated from, of all places, Norway. The client wanted a backdrop for a tank he had commissioned and that was being custom built. The tank in question (at over 900 litre capacity and 3m or 10 feet long) replicated a small section of ocean floor and would be home to marine species.
