Series 3310 is a 38 microns polyurethane film with a clear, permanent pressure-sensitive adhesive. Along
with protecting and prolonging the life of printed images, Series 3310 is designed as a multi-purpose extended life overlaminate, recommended for fleet and vehicle applications.
Used as an overlaminate, the outdoor durability is rated up to 10 years vertical exposure and up to 4 years horizontal exposure for Zone 1.
Zone 2 horizontal exposure is rated up to 3 years.
Zone 3 horizontal exposure is rated up to 18 months.

Series 3310 contains enhanced UV inhibitors in the vinyl formulation. Actual weathering durability depends on surface preparation, surface maintenance and exposure conditions. Successful weather resistance is characterized by the retention of legibility.
Series 3310 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 continued high deposition of dirt and atmospheric contaminants.
