Chris, Have you considered Fuji? The robustness of Fuji is proven. I have recently done floor space analysis and cost per placement/sqr foot studies. I have also performed ROI studies on these machines. The new CP7 machine from Fuji outperforms th

You'd more than likely have repairability issues with the Acrylic based one. The acrylic-based finish is alot harder and more brittle versus the silicone. Some of the new silicones, you can just "peel" with your fingernail, while still getting reli
