Hey guys I was wondering what vinyl you use and where you get it. I have heard from the videos on aadgonline to find 3M intermediate sign vinyl. I have found some online but I wanted to know what you think.

I use Oracal 651 Intermediate Cal and it works great. I bought a 1 yard roll of 24 inch vinyl here: http://www.uscutterdirect.com/1-Yard-by-24-Sample-of-Oracal-631-Exhibition-Cal-Vinyl_p_225.html because everywhere else seemed to only sell it in gigantic sizes. But even if you get it there, the shipping is way too expensive, so there's probably a better option. Recently I tried asking a local sign shop for scraps and the guy sold me a bit for five bucks, so that's probably still the best way to go if you can do it.

Wow, yeah $10 is rediculous, I have found like a 12" by like 5 yd roll for under $10 but I don't want to buy it if it's not going to work for me.

oracal 651 is made for like cars and vehicles and gauranteed to last for 3-5 years. so it is your best option. DO NOT buy 641 because it is water based and will defiantly give you streaks when dyeing.
