Description

RB599H is a 4-mil soft; clear gloss, polymeric
stabilized PVC film designed for solvent-based ink jet printing and screen
printing. The liner is a 90# SuperFlat™, C2S polycoated that provides excellent
layflat. This durable flexible vinyl has good outdoor durability. The adhesive
has a high initial tack and builds to a high strength, permanent bond with good
resistance to creep, solvents and heat. Suggested uses include screen-printed
labels, decals, markings, point-of-purchase displays and signs for indoor and outdoor
use.

INTENDED FOR:
Screen printing or wide format
inkjet printing including, eco-solvent, solvent-based, latex and UV-cured
inkjet. To achieve the best possible print quality, please make sure that the
correct ICC profiles or printer settings are used. Profiles can be obtained
from our Distributors or can be downloaded from www.mactac.com. Printer and
heater settings and ICC profiles can also be downloaded from some O.E.M. or software
manufacturer’s websites. The ICC profiles are provided solely as a customer
resource. Print environments, the individual nature of printing systems, inks
and software can significantly affect output. It is the customer’s
responsibility to determine the suitability of any profile for use in their
specific print environment.

SHELF LIFE:
This product is good, unprinted, for
two years when stored at 75°F (24°C) and 50% relative humidity or less.

DURABILITY:
Seven years indoors and up to 5 years
outdoors in a vertical application .This use-life estimate is based upon
accelerated age studies. Please note that exposure to severe temperatures,
ultra-violet light and also in tropical, sub-tropical or desert regions will
cause more rapid deterioration. This also applies to polluted areas, high
altitude and south facing exposure.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Always test your combination of REBEL products, inks and laminating films prior to
commercial use.

1. Printing Conditions: Print in conditioned pressroom at ±73°F (23°C) and 50% RH. The maximum allowable ink
   saturation is 270%.
2. Drying Requirements: Solvent,
   Eco-solvent and Mild-solvent inkjet prints require 24 – 48 hr. drying time –
   open to the air. Inks do not dry when printed media is rolled up. The prints
   must be dry prior to lamination.
3. Laminating Conditions: If
   the printed graphic is likely to be exposed to corrosive liquids, smoke, fumes,
   and highly polluted areas or there is a likelihood of scratching, it is highly
   recommended to laminate with Permacolor IP7000 Series or LF3600 High performance
   overlaminating films.
4. Transportation Conditions: To
   allow for easy transportation, REBEL series can be rolled up, with the image
   out, with a minimum diameter of 6 inches (15cm). When the image is not
   protected by an overlaminate, make sure the print is completely dry and
   protected in a plastic bag. During transportation or storage, avoid exposing
   them to extreme temperature and humidity changes.
5. Applications: This film is recommended for use in flat to moderately curved surfaces on:
   a. Vending or dispensing machines and cooler graphics
   b. Indoor and outdoor graphics and signs
   c. Small format OEM decorative and identification graphics
6. This is film is not recommended for use on:
   a. Corrugated or complex surfaces
   b. Over rivets
   c. On flexible substrates (banners, canvas, etc.)
   d. Painted surfaces that are not thoroughly
   cured or properly bonded to the substrate.
