Features

  • Gloss topcoated 4.0 mil white flexible vinyl provides consistent surface smoothness, excellent dimensional stability, and conformability
  • Printable via resin and wax/resin thermal transfer; UV & solvent screen; UV, solvent & water flexo; laser (toner); and narrow-format UV inkjet
  • Permanent acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive bonds well to low- and high-surface energy plastics, painted metal, powder-coated paint, polycarbonate and fiberglass
  • High shear and high peel adhesive resists cold flow and oozing
  • Adhesive bonds well to base film substrates
  • Backed with a 50 lb. bleached kraft release liner ideal for roll-form converting
  • Liner is suitable for optical sensing on most thermal transfer printers


Additional Details

All narrow-format UV inkjet systems are different; therefore, we recommend "fit-for-use" testing.
