Common Questions
Which material should I choose?
If you are trying to choose between the 18oz and 12oz vinyl materials, please choose based on your environment. For regular weather conditions, 12 oz. vinyl is a great material at a slightly less expensive price. If you are going to experience heavy weather conditions such as heavy snow, heavy rain, and lots of wind, then please choose the 18 oz. vinyl material.
What is the most common material?
The 18 ounce vinyl is used to make 90% of the covers ALCO offers. Even though both materials are equally strong and look the same, the majority of customers pick the thicker material.
Are they easy to clean?
Yes. Contrary to other polyester covers that resemble canvas, vinyl is a material that is extremely slick and is therefore simple to clean. Canvas will capture and hold mold and stains that are difficult to remove, as opposed to the sleek ALCO Vinyl custom furniture covers.
How strong are the covers?
18 oz vinyl is a very strong and long-lasting material, in fact, it is the same material that is used on the semi trailers to cover their cargo! As you can imagine, the abuse the material can endure on the highway is extreme, and if they didn't hold up, the truckers would not use them. That is why 18 oz vinyl is one of the strongest covers that you can purchase.
My cover will be used indoors. Which material is ideal?
The 600D material is the perfect material for indoors or even outdoors if its mostly in the shade and not in harsh conditions.
Common Questions
Custom Printed Covers – Frequently Asked Questions
What are custom printed covers and who uses them?
They’re branded protective covers. Our custom printed covers shield machinery, equipment, and furniture from rain, dust, wind, and UV while displaying logos or messages. They’re popular for retail “Coming Soon” wraps, “Out of Service” tags, and corporate branding on job sites, warehouses, events, and storefronts.
How do I supply artwork for logo printing?
Use vector files. We prefer AI, EPS, or high-resolution PDF vectors; for raster art, send 300 DPI PNG/JPG at full print size. Include outlined fonts and Pantone/CMYK values if color-critical. Clear, production-ready files help us reproduce crisp graphics on vinyl or polyester covers without blurring.
Can you match my brand colors or Pantone values?
Yes, closely. Provide Pantone or CMYK specs, and we’ll align prints for accurate brand color on your custom cover. Substrates can influence appearance slightly, so minor variance is possible. For critical campaigns, request a small color proof or sample swatch before full production.
Which materials work best for printed covers?
Match to use. 12oz vinyl suits regular outdoor weather with easy cleaning; 18oz vinyl is heavy-duty for harsh exposure and frequent handling. 600D polyester is lighter for indoor or shaded areas. All accept high-quality printing; vinyl delivers the most durable, vivid outdoor graphics.
Are printed covers waterproof and UV resistant?
Yes, they are. Printed vinyl covers are waterproof and strongly UV resistant; printed polyester covers are water-resistant with dependable sun protection. Proper tie-downs help shed water and reduce billow. Treated inks and coatings keep logos sharp and readable in outdoor conditions.
How durable is the print on heavy-duty vinyl?
Very durable. Industrial-grade inks and processes bond to the vinyl surface for high abrasion resistance and outdoor longevity. With routine cleaning and correct storage, graphics stay vibrant and legible through seasons of sun, rain, and handling typical of construction, logistics, and retail sites.
Can I print both a logo and text like “Out of Service”?
Absolutely. We can combine logos, large safety text, and directional messaging on the same cover. Provide layout preferences or let us propose placement for visibility. High-contrast designs improve readability from distance, ideal for compliance notices, branding, and temporary area designations.
How do I measure so the printed area lands correctly?
Measure precisely. Share width, depth, and height plus where you want the graphic (front panel, top, or sides). We add slack for fit (not on height) and align artwork to your specified panel. Photos or sketches help confirm placement so logos sit centered and level.
What tie-down or access options can be added?
Plenty. Choose reinforced grommets, straps, or cover splits for access doors and cable routes. These features keep printed covers secure in wind, support drainage, and let you reach controls without removal. We’ll position prints to avoid seams and hardware for a clean look.
How do I clean a custom printed cover without damaging graphics?
Gently. Use mild soap and water with a soft cloth; rinse and air-dry. Avoid abrasive pads, harsh solvents, and high-pressure jets directly on prints. Routine cleaning preserves ink integrity, color, and sheen, keeping your branded equipment cover looking professional and readable longer.
What is the typical lead time for printed orders?
They’re fast. Most custom printed covers ship in about 10–12 working days after art approval and order confirmation. Timelines depend on size, material, and features. We’ll confirm schedules at checkout so you can coordinate installations, store openings, or promotional rollouts confidently.
Do printed covers include a warranty?
Yes, they do. Material warranties mirror your selection—vinyl options include robust coverage and polyester includes dedicated terms. Warranty supports workmanship and materials; print life depends on exposure and care. Contact support for specific coverage details for your chosen fabric and configuration.
Can you print on large or irregularly shaped covers?
Yes, we can. Provide dimensions and photos for complex shapes, and we’ll panelize seams and scale artwork for visibility. Oversized prints can span multiple panels while maintaining alignment. Our production team optimizes placement so logos read cleanly on large or contoured surfaces.
How is pricing calculated for custom printed covers?
It’s transparent. Pricing factors include size, material (600D, 12oz, 18oz), print area, number of colors, and added features like grommets or splits. Larger graphics and heavier-duty fabrics require more material and processing. You’ll see clear pricing as you configure or request a custom quote.
Can I review a proof before production begins?
Yes, you can. We provide a digital proof showing artwork scale and placement on your cover panels. Approve or request edits before printing to ensure accuracy. For color-critical branding, ask for a small printed swatch; it’s the best way to validate hues on the chosen material.
