Handling
- A preconditioning period of 24 hours within the printing environment is recommended.
- Please carefully follow the handling instructions supplied with this product as well as the press manufacturers manual.
- No special handling required.
- Surface Protection: The product can be used outdoor without lamination. However, the surface must be protected in order to improve weathering resistance or if the film is subject to any mechanical influences. In this case you should use self-adhesive laminating foils. If silicon oil is added depending on the type of machine this may influence the adherence of the laminating foil on the film’s surface. It is necessary to make some tests on a sample sheet before further processing.
- All even, smooth surfaces which are dry and free of dirt, grease, silicon etc. can be adhered. The surface to be adhered to must be checked for suitability and professionally prepared (cleaned) before application. If applied onto curved surfaces please be aware that label lift off can occur especially if the radius is tight. Gluing on low-energy surfaces such as LDPE PE PP will be not recommended. Please note: It is up to the user to test for there own suitability/application, due to the wide variety of surfaces, applications & desired results. Adhesion temperature at least 15°C.
- Avoid fingerprints on printing side.
Storage
