GFP Economy UV 3 Mil Gloss Overlaminate is a clear monomeric PVC laminating film designed to protect and enhance printed graphics. Its high-gloss surface improves color depth and visual impact, while the permanent clear solvent-based acrylic adhesive provides dependable adhesion to properly prepared printed media.
Designed for short- to medium-term indoor and outdoor signage, this overlaminate is suitable for flat and slightly curved surfaces with vertical exposure. The 3.2 mil calendared PVC film offers outdoor durability of up to two years under suitable conditions and withstands temperatures from 40°F to 176°F after application.
For best results, printed PVC should be thoroughly dried, cured, and outgassed before lamination. Allow solvent-printed graphics to dry for approximately 24–48 hours at 70°F. Laminating before residual solvents have evaporated may cause tunneling, shrinkage, delamination, or adhesive failure.
The 20" x 150' roll is a practical match for compatible 20-inch printing, cutting, and laminating workflows.
