MACal 9800Pro & Pro SL
High Performance Vinyl Series
Product Description
Exclusive Mactac films designed for high performance permanent marking applications. The face is a
2.6-mil cadmium-free vinyl, which are durable yet highly flexible for conformability over difficult
surfaces and has an enhanced high gloss finish. The product is coated with a high performance,
permanent, clear acrylic adhesive for 9800Pro and a durable white acrylic adhesive for 9800ProSL.
These products utilize an 83# white kraft liner for stability and layflat with blue backprinting. The
products exhibit excellent dimensional stability and are designed for superior cutting and weed ability.
Mactac offers a wide variety of standard high gloss colors with MACal? 9800Pro, and ultra-bright,
luminous colors with MACal? 9800ProSL.

Durability
The durability of these products is; White and black – 8 years outdoor, all other colors – 7 years and
metallic’s – 5 years outdoors. This use-life estimate is based upon accelerated age studies based on
vertical applications under “normal” temperate climates.
Printability
Printability is not warranted. However, we have created the following guidelines if printing is desired:
1) For screen printing: Limit the screen ink to two or three colors. While the liner is an excellent liner,
it is designed for plotter cutting. Sometimes too much heat may result in the liner ‘waving’ a little
which can cause registration issues when additional colors are used. Mactac recommends Nazdar
3500 series UV cured screen inks.
2) If printing UV inkjet; make sure the vacuum (if flatbed) is strong enough to hold the liner down
tight. Typically it is, but vacuums are notoriously weak, especially as they age.
3) If printing with solvent inks; limit the inks to a total of 270% saturation. Use a generic ICC profile for
either 2 mil cast of 3.5 mil calendared vinyl films as a starting point.
4) Thermal transfer printing: all MACmark gloss films are thermal transfer printable. We strongly
recommend the use of a web cleaner prior to printing due to the potential presence of paper dust
from the white kraft paper liner.
Shelf Life
Two years when stored between at 60- 80°F (15 – 25°C) and 50% relative humidity or less.
Chemical Resistance
A sample is prepared by adhering the film to a metal substrate 24 hours prior to immersion in the
chemical solution or solvent. After a fixed period of time, the sample is removed, dried and examined
for adhesion.

A sample is prepared in the same manner as for the Chemical Resistance Test and is sprayed several
times with gasoline followed by drying at each stage.

Limitations
1) The user is responsible for determining the product’s suitability, including adhesion and if needed,
removal characteristics when used in applications other than listed specifically in this Performance
Guide.
2) If there are any questions about applications, please contact your Mactac sales representative to
discuss your requirements for recommendations.
3) If this is a printed Performance Guide it is an uncontrolled document. Please check the Mactac
website for the latest, most up-to-date version.
Application Tips
Application of MACal 9800Pro and Pro SL is made easier if Mactac pre-spacing tape is used. Where
exposure to chemical and solvent spills is likely to occur, edge sealing of decals with a varnish or clear
coat will prevent edge lift. Correct varnishing of decals gives greater protection and longer end-use life
against any prolonged effect of weathering, abrasion and other erosive effects such as frequent
cleaning.
