I had a 45 inch hotwire to shrink wrap..( costly) . its labor intense ( time is Money).. Looks good for clarity However cost is pr0hibitive.. 30 inch shrink film as you need cutoff will be nuts for Dupont clysar.. you need 75 gauge to 100 gauge film and you need corragated board - d flute and best white one side... about 70-120 per sheet in 1000 lots.. Plus you will need to use a indutrial heat gun to shrink each unit... Like 3-5 mins a Poster waste OF TIME!!! OK... stick with Poly bags 71 cents and they stretch wheras shrink has no integrity once it rips.. If you have lots of posters call www.bagsunlimited in Rochester.. and get the sleeves. downfall In 500 years they will release acid... and they ge cloudy from the polyethelene being unstable.. Or better IDEA-Ill sell you a lot of one sheets bagged and Boarded for 5.00 each for like 600 units and you do no labor and sell the Puppies and get moula! ready to go posters... a instant poster store! the posters alone are worth 5-10each wholsale.. I am just on a mission.... what that mission is,,,Only Santa knows..:)
