General Formulations 102

GF 102 is a 3.0 mil matte clear pressure sensitive vinyl laminate with a permanent acrylic adhesive on a smooth 53# liner. This calendered vinyl laminate protects graphics from abrasion and moisture. GF 102 is best applied by the cold laminating process without the addition of heat and is designed to protect digital and screen printed images for exhibit and display graphics. GF 102 can be used in most instances where an overlay with a matte finish is required on interior or exterior applications.
