Primed for excellent ink adhesion and printability via conventional offset
Adhesive is cleanly removable for up to one year from most smooth OEM surfaces. This product will not damage paint on sound* OEM or repainted bus surfaces
Aggressive removable pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive bonds well to painted metal, painted plastic, and glass
Recommendations: This product is designed for use on smooth, flat surfaces and should not be applied over corrugations or rivets. Prior to application, the surface(s) must be clean and dry. Please be sure that printed graphics, using solvent inkjet, have been allowed to thoroughly dry, either through the use of heat or by exposing unrolled material to the air. If excessive solvents remain, they may penetrate the vinyl causing it to become overly soft and pliable, inhibiting proper installation and removal of the graphic.
*Sound paint surface is defined as possessing a 20 lb. per inch minimum peel bond between the paint and paint-receptive surface.
