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.
