Adhesive Properties:
1.5 mils. of permanent aggressive acrylic pressure sensitive
adhesive works for most surfaces including textured low energy
plastic and metal surfaces.
1.5 mil film with 1.5 mil. of adhesive.
General Description: Chrome Silver, soft, flexible UV durable film with a clear aggressive super smooth permanent acrylic adhesive.
Different combinations of Convex® or Pro-Shield™ laminates can be used to achieve a variety of decal thicknesses.
Test Method
5-7 years UV
5 years stored at 70º F & 50%RH
(-40º F to 212º F)
50º F
Apply to clean dry surfaces. Clean plastic with alcohol or acetone to remove any “silicone” mould residue from the surface. On curved
surfaces such as MX bike plastics, you may use the aid of a heat gun to get harder laminates such as Pro-Shield to conform to complex
curved shapes.
In Gerber’s Composer or Plot program, select the setting for 220 HP or 210 Deluxe series vinyl. We recommend Gerber’s GCT series transparent colors for
the best transparent results, or GCS spot colors to block the chrome effect. If you are using laminates on top of the base material, you will have to determine
the best cutter settings by test cutting the finished construction. Convex Chrome is only 1.5 mils thick with 1.5 mils of adhesive. Therefore it does not take a lot
of force to cut through Convex Chrome without laminate.
