6820 Matt Clear Hot Over-laminating Film 1040mm x 25m roll

Matt Clear over-laminating film is moisture proof and will not crack

Applying over-laminating film to the face of a print bonded to a suitable substrate before framing removes the safety risks of glass breaking. The finished item will also be much lighter. When applied it can sometimes be hard to see, which can be valuable.

Over-laminates offer excellent protective coating for all kinds of printed art, posters displays and photos on paper. Especially good for digital prints on canvas. Moisture, finger marks and similar are all readily wiped away.

Specification: 

Matt Clear PVC 75µ + heat activated adhesive 25µ = 100µ total thickness + release paper. The release paper is grid printed to help when aligning and cutting. Made in UK.

Working temperature range is 85° - 99°C but always test and check. A few inks can change tone under heat.

Pre-pierced, PP, to allow moisture to escape and minimise silvering. The tiny holes seal up during the mounting process.

Placing a foam blanket over the laminating film in the press helps push the hot film into the texture of a canvas. This can also give a lustre texture to the film.
