8 Mil Microporous Gloss Polypropylene

Description

8 Mil Microporous Gloss Polypropylene provides the true photographic look and feel needed to
reproduce advertising quality photo art onto an economical banners material used for POP
displays, retail graphics, long-term indoor signs, and short-term outdoor signs. The brightwhite,
glossy, fast drying microporous surface is particularly good for reproducing detailed,
vibrant color images with aqueous dye and pigmented inks. Prints produced with dye inks are
water-resistant and with pigment inks are waterproof. The durable 8 mil thickness provides
good tear-resistance, easy handling and provides the rigidity needed for use in banner stands
.

RIP & Printer Media
Settings
For the best and most consistent results, a profile should be created using an external color calibrator in
conjunction with your RIP and color matching software. However, if these tools are not available, printers
using dye ink should be set for the highest print quality and media selection should be “Photopaper”. When
using UV inks, the “heavy weight coated” option should be selected. Ink coverage up to 300% is
recommended.
Light Fastness The fading time of inkjet ink is a direct result of the inks that you choose to use and the environment where the
print is displayed. Please consult with your ink manufacturer for light fastness data
