Finishing Recommendations
• Cutting – product can be cut with fabric scissors and will not fray, but for best results use a heat
knife and blade (Neschen item # 600HSG0 & 600H205) on glass or other heat resistant surface
with a metal ruler to seal the edges.
• Sewing – use polyester thread to prevent material puckering.
• Hemming Tape – banner tape can be used in place of stitching, check for adhesive compatibility
with fabric as some adhesives do not stick well to fabric. Tape may affect fire retardant properties.
• Cleaning – if graphic becomes soiled, use a lint-free, clean cloth with warm soapy water and
gently rub the affected areas. Do not immerse in water or use cleaning products as these can
damage the graphic. Test all cleaning procedures on a small inconspicuous area (or on a
previously printed test print) so that it does not affect the graphic. Rubbing wet ink may cause
smudging.
• Wrinkle Removal – the best way to eliminate any wrinkles that form during transport or storage of
the graphic is with a handheld steamer. Use the setting recommended for polyester fabrics and
apply the steam to the back side of the graphic.
• Outdoor displays – secure graphic to prevent wind damage.
Storage Conditions
• Store unused media in the plastic over wrap to protect it from humidity changes and
contaminants. Store media on an even flat surface to prevent dents that may affect imaging
performance. Media may also be stored standing on end or on a media caddy.
