GFP Economy UV 3 Mil Matte Overlaminate is a clear monomeric PVC laminating film designed to protect printed graphics while providing a low-glare matte finish. The permanent clear solvent-based acrylic adhesive delivers dependable adhesion to properly prepared printed media, making it an excellent choice for a variety of wide-format graphics applications.
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 recommended conditions and performs in temperatures from 40°F to 176°F after application.
For best results, printed PVC should be thoroughly dried, cured, and properly outgassed before lamination. Solvent-printed graphics should dry for approximately 24–48 hours at 70°F prior to lamination to help prevent tunneling, shrinkage, delamination, or adhesive failure.
The 20" x 150' roll is well suited for compatible 20-inch printing, cutting, and laminating workflows.
