Hi this is TJ with SignComp Brian - Sorry to hear of the puckering with your flex face replacement. Our Customer Service is available from 8am to 5pm EST at 877-784-0405 and we are here to assist if you need it. We sell a few flex face systems globally and I can assure you the plastic clips are the most popular as they allow precision tensioning that a wedgeclamp can not and with regards to size they are used on more supergraphics than any other system. Full bleed will always be more a bit more difficult than a framed application as a frame or a cover can hide some edge imperfections, however it is completely doable. The full bleed is by far the most popular from an aesthetic choice which is why you see it more often. I agree with some of the other comments.......1 click all the way around first to make sure all is square and started correctly by pushing any puckers by hand out towards the corners........and then around again, however never over tension. If your puckers are right at the final inches of the corners, we have found a technique where you do not cut the extra flex face corner away, but instead you twist the flex face with a pair of pliers and then push it into the frames corner with the butt end of the tension tool. This action helps pull-out those puckers right into the corner. Note: this corner puckering can happen on any bleed frame system as any mitered corner bleed frame doesn't allow clips all the way to into the corner. Here is a photo album link showing the twisting with pliers https://photos.app.goo.gl/wA55pTn43REdSK0k2 I hope this helps and again, please call us for assistance. PS........thank you to Rocco and Spectrum Maine for supporting the SignComp tensioning system!! TJ

Sign Suppliers selling to anyone for that extra dollar. I know it well. I can not blame anyone for trying to make more money or extra money on the side. We all have done it. When a supplier goes into business selling to the trades, that is his profession and that is what he is building his business on If the Supplier wants to sell to the public and or manufacture themselves and sell directly. Let them. You can do the same. Buy Direct. Buy someplace else. Knock them out of the picture. Make them hurt. I did it several times with a supplier. I stopped ordering from them. Sometimes I paid less, Sometimes I paid more. But that supplier lost everything from me. That was a big hit to them and they felt it immediately. New Suppliers want your business and want their competitors out of business also. The suppliers came back to me and with better pricing and service. They also changed their policies. Get a few shops together on this and watch the impact you will make.
