Larry,
Yes they are you basic 3 ring binder with a textured cover much like you would find on a photo album, not the vinyl cover typical of school binders. It also has a "box" the binder slips into.
I had actually thought of using laser thins....but your way might last longer.
As to how many, they will come in on or two at a time on an indefinite basis.....
Thanks

I have touched my corporate binder 6 times at the most, in the 20 years I have been incorporated.
Now I just have to find a source for them....Sage, here I come

(Last time I saw mine I gave it to the attorney)
How about Rub n Buff to decorate the binder? I never have used the stuff, but it says it will stick to any dry surface. Cut a mask and Rub n Buff. Might work. Comes is a good selection of colors too I think.

How about vinyl graphics for the cover?

Dave, thanks..
The challenge is they want it on the spline.....but maybe I can explore that......I'd like to figure this out...this is one of those "niche" markets everyone keeps talking about....and there are LOTS of CPA's on the island.
thanks

A sign shop should be able to provide you with the pre-weeded vinyl, on application paper.
Create a hinge with a piece of masking tape, remove the protective backing, squeegie onto the binder and remove the top masking.
So easy, even I can do it and I have. :-)

My reading comprehension is shot. I thought you already had the binders.

Thank you Bill, I will be calling you.........I can make the seals here as well.
It's a CPA...he does not need the paper, he fills the binder himself.....price will be a factor....and out in the middle of the ocean, well, it gets expensive......because of freight...
BUT, who know. I'll be calling you tomorrow. Thanks for the help

Then if that is the case look into a pad printer or a used hot stamping machine
or cut gold foil using your laser for a decal.. I have even seen some companies just use View binders sold at any office supply house.. and put in a decorative ivory or fancy paper printed from a computer printer..
and yes view binders come with the binding side having a slip in opening

The hot stamp won't work because of the rings... possibly a pad printer, but I know nothing about pad printing.......
I'll talk to you in the morning.....any particular time better than another?

Dude - use laser foil instead of vinyl - that way you can do it in house on demand. Laser foil is just polyester instead of vinyl.

Laser foil needs to be applied FIRST correct? I will have to find binders that have a smooth surface......
Thanks Joe

You should test vinyl or the foil on the binders to make sure you have a surface that they will adhere to well.
If I were doing it with foil I would place it on my multi-mat then cut, weed away the part I do not need, put transfer paper over the letters, turn it over take away the backer to expose the adhesive back, stick on the binder, squeegee down - peel off transfer paper.
TA-DA.
If you do not have a muti-mat use cardboard & some masking tape to hold down the edges of your foil - having the cardboard allows you to take it out of the laser to put the transfer paper on - Got It???
Order multi-mat from Jeanette.
