vendtex Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Does anyone know a source of material that looks similar to the mylar used on these machines that can be obtained cheaper? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musser Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I don't use it on refurbed machines. I use it sometimes to cover paint damage if the rest of a machine looks good. If I need it I order it from Cardinal distributing, they are a Northwestern Distributor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe isn't cost effective, but you see some crappy machines at times, and I'd like to distinguish mine from those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musser Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Northwestern sells machines without the mylar, I have bought many. So no mylar= look like new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no mylar= look like new agreed but it's hard to clean up the gummy stuff under the mylar for a refurbished one that's when I put a new one one. I've bought new without mylar too.

musser Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Lol, yea the glue is really hard to get off when it's been on for 20 years! The last Mylar I bought came from Cardinal. I don't know if they have other parts, probably do. From time to time they have a lot of good used Northwesterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musser Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 A bit of advise, not meant to be snarky in any way. Bulk vending is a very very small industry. Folks are used to getting on line to say Amazon and getting immediate satisfaction. Amazon probably sells more goods in an hour than all Bulk Vending suppliers combined sell in a year. So, it really is difficult finding and getting stuff. Just gotta be patient and sometimes creative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetstop Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 ive made them from my vinyl sticker material that i use and then it could be customized with color and text but didnt list them on my site because I cant beat the price that NW sells them for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
