• Match the substrate to the inks/imaging
method.
– ClassicVue, SuperVue & ImageVue are uncoated vinyl
films designed for solvent (most types), UV-curable or other outdoor inks;
thermal and electrostatic transfer; and airbrushing.
– ImageJetVue & JetVue are inkjet-coated (top-coated) vinyl films designed for aqueous dye-based and pigmented inkjet printing.
• In the design of your window graphics, avoid the use of dark colors over a wide area. [Details]
• Use a large enough type font -- 30 point or larger for ImageVue and ImageJetVue, 50 point or larger for ClassicVue, SuperVue and JetVue. [Details]
• Allow sufficient time for inks to dry before laminating or installing graphics. [Details]
• Use an optically clear overlaminate
that’s compatible with perforated window-graphics film and
suitable for the job and the surface (flat vs. curved) on which
the graphics will be installed. [Details]
• For optimum one-way visibility, the
lighting should be brighter on the graphics side than on
the black (non-imaged) side. [Details]
• Use mild soap and water -- NEVER a solvent-based glass cleaner, such as Windex®, to wash the glass surface prior to installing the graphics. [Details]
• Install the graphics on a glass surface whose temperature is between approx. 40° F (5° C) and 90° F (32° C). [Details]
