9 Mil Water-Resistant Backlit

Description

9 Mil Water-Resistant Backlit is a translucent, 9-mil polyester film that enables anyone with
pro-model aqueous inkjet or latex printers to produce stunning backlit graphics. The instantdry,
matte-finish coating on the front surface of the film produces a super-wide color gamut for
brilliant colors and sharp details. The instant-dry coating also helps reduce the waiting time
between printing and laminating. Applying a pressure-sensitive over laminate is recommended
to keep prints from being damaged during installation.
Compatible with aqueous dye or pigment inks and HP latex ink.

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 pigment and latex inks, an “backlit” option should be selected.
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.
Water Resistance Water resistant with latex or aqueous pigmented inks.
