DPF 6000RP White is a 50 microns gloss cast film with tinted, clean removing, high tack, permanent pressure-sensitive adhesive. Designed for large format graphics, DPF 6000RP White is made of premium quality cast facestock with a special lay-flat liner. The special adhesive system is designed to provide excellent opacity, as well as easy installation. The film provides superior conformability around rivets, curves, contours and channels.
DPF 6000RP White is rated for outdoor durability up to 10 years (unprinted). Printed durability is dependent on the ink system used.
*Channel applications should be installed using Arlon’s approved installation methods found at www.arlon.com and www.wrapitright.com.
**DPF 6000RP and Series 3350 are not warranted around compound curves.

Actual weathering durability depends on surface preparation, surface maintenance and exposure conditions. Successful weather resistance is characterized by the retention of legibility. DPF 6000RP White will resist weathering best when applied to vertical or upper outboard angles. Horizontal angles, such as hood and auto roof surfaces, will deteriorate more quickly than vertical. This is due to increased exposure to sun and moisture, as well as high deposition of dirt and atmospheric contaminants. Arlon does not recommend its film for horizontal or close horizontal applications. Use heat and/or chemical when removing image from vehicle (see Installer Handbook for details).
