Applying Adhesive Vinyl to Plywood
June 5th, 2019
As more and more retail clients realize the opportunity to promote a new store with graphics on an outdoor construction barricade or marquee, there is need for an adhesive vinyl that works successfully in this application.
Quality Media offers the perfect product to meet these demanding requirements.
DuraVinyl 435, Barricade Vinyl, was developed to adhere to the rough painted or unpainted plywood barricades used throughout New York. DuraVinyl 435 is a traditional 3.5mil white vinyl with a 2mil coating of soft, high tack adhesive that tacks up to 9lbs/ sq in over 24 hours. Standard adhesive vinyl has a .8mil adhesive coating.
DuraVinyl 435 also offers the advantage that its adhesive remains stable during printing and will not squeeze out the sides when printing like other super high tack vinyl.

Removing Vinyl and Film Graphics From Windows
May 3rd, 2019
You will find that the ease of removal will depend on several factors:
Surface
Most adhesives stick very well to glass; however, cheaper grades of glass will often cause the adhesive to have a higher grip than a premium grade glass.
Adhesive Strength
Did you use a media with a removable or ultra removable adhesive? For exterior window application, using a media with an ultra removable adhesive like Quality DuraVinyl 252 White or DuraVinyl 352 White 6mil vinyl, will make the removal much easier than a traditional removable vinyl.
Time Frame
The longer the graphic is on the window, the stronger that adhesion. The adhesive often adheres better to the glass than it does to the vinyl over time.
Sunlight
If the graphic is in direct sunlight, this will often cause the graphic to bond to the window and make removal more difficult.
With these factors in mind, lets look into tips for removing vinyl and film graphics from windows:
