Abstract:
A method of making a decoration comprising a plurality of discrete units of colored adhesive film, the colored adhesive film comprising a PVC film having on one side thereof an adhesive layer protected by a release liner, with a primer layer arranged between the PVC film and the adhesive layer and comprising an aminoplast and a polyester and/or a curing product thereof, the method comprising: * (i) providing the colored adhesive film; * (ii) cutting the PVC film, the primer layer and the adhesive layer to define said plurality of discrete units, * (iii) delaminating the cut portions from the release liner so as to leave the discrete units on said release liner; * (iv) applying an adhesive application tape over said discrete units; * (v) removing the release liner thereby leaving the discrete units attached to the application tape * (vi) applying the application tape with the discrete units to a surface to be decorated with the discrete units facing the surface; and * (vii) removing the application tape.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of reducing lifting of a graphics film from a substrate, the graphic film having a polymeric film layer having on one major side thereof an adhesive layer, wherein lifting is reduced by applying the graphic film to the substrate with an intermediary base film, the base film comprising a backing layer having opposite first and second major sides, the first major side having an adhesive layer and the graphic film being adhered to the second major side of the base film.
Abstract:
A web of film material wound about a central longitudinal axis to provide a roll, the film material including a conformable base film comprising a first surface and an opposite second surface. The web of film material further includes an adhesive layer including a first surface bonded to the second surface of the base film and an opposite second surface, a release liner releasably attached to the second surface of the adhesive layer, and a protective film layer releasably attached to the first surface of the conformable base film.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of making a colored graphics film, the method comprising: (i) providing a transparent polyester film, (ii) coating thereon a polyvinyl chloride organosol or plastisol composition comprising one or more color pigments, (iii) heating so as to cause film forming of the polyvinyl chloride organosol or plastisol composition thereby obtaining a colored polyvinyl chloride film adhered on one side thereof to a transparent polyester film and (iv) applying an adhesive layer to the side of the polyvinyl chloride film opposite to the side adhering to the transparent polyester film. The present invention in a further aspect provides a colored graphics film comprising a polyvinyl chloride film layer having opposite major sides, one major side comprising an adhesive layer and the major side opposite thereto having a transparent polyester layer directly bonded to the polyvinyl chloride film layer.
