Series 3270

Premium Cast Overlaminate

Series 3270 overlaminate is constructed of 50 microns cast vinyl film with clear, permanent pressure-sensitive adhesive. Designed to protect and prolong the life of printed images, Series 3270 extends the life of the graphics by 2 years.

When used independently, Series 3270 is rated for outdoor durability up to 7 years.

This product is not designed to be used as an optically clear window film.

OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE

Actual weathering durability depends on surface preparation, surface maintenance and exposure conditions. Successful weather resistance is characterized by the retention of legibility.

Series 3270 will resist weathering best when applied to vertical or upper outboard angles. Horizontal surfaces, such as hood(s) and auto roof(s), will deteriorate more quickly than vertical surfaces. This is due to increased exposure to sun and moisture, as well as continued high deposition of dirt and atmospheric contaminants. Arlon does not recommend its film for horizontal or 0 – 30 degree applications.
