    - Keep in mind that oversized printing is meant to be viewed from afar. Be sure to check out how colors might appear from a distance and within their surroundings. We offer 3D rendering to help you visualize the final product.

    Q.

    Where are the grommets placed on my banner?

    Q.

    How many grommets will be on my large format banner print?

    A.
    Depends on your banner size. The larger the banner printing, the more grommets it’ll require for secure fixation. Grommets will be equally spaced to avoid wrinkles and bends. We can add as many grommets as you wish, but usually our craftsmen attach as many grommets as the size of the banner requires.
    Q.

    Why do I need hemmed edges for my banner?

    A.
    Hemmed edges give extra strength to the printing on mesh, fabric and vinyl materials. Quality vinyl banner printing requires hemmed edges on every corner to make it more durable, tear-resistant and refined in appearance.
    Q.

    What large format banner printing material can be used to display a huge design?

    A.
    You can utilize mesh, fabric or vinyl banners for extra-large printing. No matter the material, we provide direct banner printing services in all sizes. You can also get large printing on rigid materials. The material choice and size of the print is completely up to you. We provide custom large format printing in Los Angeles and across the USA.
    Q.

    Can I have different graphics on each side of the large poster print?

    A.
    Yes, you can have two different graphics on each side of the display. Our double-sided banners and displays can depict the same or different message on both sides without showing through the material. This option can be used to entice viewers from two prominent directions.
    Q.

    What if the colors on the custom banner aren’t what I expected?

    A.
    Prior to the printing process, we send you the design proof with its pantone color codes. We only move forward with the vinyl banner printing once we have your confirmation of the color accuracy and other specifications of the design.  Slight variations in color may occur due to the differences between computer monitors. In the rare case that they don’t match the design proofs, you can get in touch with us and we’ll do our best to resolve the matter. Our quality assurance is taken seriously to make sure that the results of your project are always satisfying!
