Alliance with Compudif to Distribute FIRST™ Polymeric System

Sherman, Texas, September 15, 1999 – Grayson Business Computers, Inc. dba Sign Warehouse announces an alliance with Compudif, France for the exclusive distribution rights in North America for the revolutionary FIRST™ Polymeric System. An easy, simple and foolproof solution that works with most existing inkjets and pigmented inks, the revolutionary FIRST™ Polymeric Unit combined with FIRST™ vinyl media produces outdoor durable output that even nature or mankind, including car washes, abrasion, steam cleaners or chemical attack, can’t affect.

"Imagine cutting up a plain white candle into pieces. Take those pieces along with a red crayon and melt them in a pan. When the mixture cools, you can never remove the red coloring from the wax since it is suspended within it. Although simplified, this is how the FIRST Polymeric System works," explains Christopher Gripp, President of Sign Warehouse. "Besides achieving incredible outdoor durability, what makes the system even better," Mr. Gripp continues, "is that when using FIRST media and the FIRST Polymeric Unit, you get vibrant, eye-popping color and a satin finish. Your prints just come alive with brightness!"

Compatibility with the FIRST Polymeric System extends to but is not limited to the VE PrismJet 720/1440* dpi 4-Color, VE PrismJet HI-FI 720/1440* dpi 6-Color, Encad Pro 50/60* Series, Graphtec SignJet Pro*, HP 2000/3000* Series, Roland HiFi Jet*, Mimaki JV2-130* and CalComp Summapaint*.
