JT 5798 MBF Technical Data Sheet
5 year polymeric calendered vinyl

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
FACE MATERIAL : 80 µ translucent matt dusted polymeric PVC film
ADHESIVE : Micro-structured repositionable permanent acrylic.
LINER : PE coat liner 130 gsqm backprinted BF series.

TYPICAL USES
Long term outdoor & indoor decoration of windows (restaurants, museums, showrooms, shopping malls,
etc).
Product benefits : dry application at it’s best!
A patented performance feature enabling the Applicator of the printed decal to apply much faster and to limit the risks of
wrinkles and entrapped air bubbles generally associated with the application of large format decals.
BF series therefore save time by increasing productivity during the application job. The micro-structured repositionable
adhesive system allows the installer to remove and re-apply the decals during the job. It is possible to press out small
entrapped air bubbles with ease!
As a result : A great looking job!
remark: do not use the wet application method to apply B-Free products.

PRINTING
Especially designed for solvent, eco-solvent, mild solvent, Latex or UV inkjet printing on wide-format printing equipment.
To achieve the best possible print quality, please make sure that the correct ICC profiles or printer settings are used.
Profiles can be obtained from our Subsidiaries, Distributors or can be downloaded from www.mactac-europe.com
Printer & Heater settings and ICC profiles are also downloadable from some of the OEM’s web sites.

Important notice : It is CRITICAL that any digital prints are TOTALLY DRY before application. While this is important for
all films in the JT 5000 range it is even more important for the special tack system of JT 5798M BF.
If the film is not dried sufficiently the vinyl and adhesive will still be full of solvents which change the properties and
consequently the behaviour of the film. The customer will therefore not benefit from the bubble free effect enough to reduce
application time. It can also cause adhesive residue to be left behind and lack of repositionnability.
This is also important when laminating the printed decal.

SHELF LIFE
2 years when stored at 15 to 25°C and  50 % relative humidity (in the original packaging).

DURABILITY
The outdoor durability of the unprinted film is 5 years.
For more information, please consult Technical Bulletin 7.5 “Outdoor Durability of combined print Media and Laminates” on
our web site.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Always test the combination of JT 5000 products, inks and laminating films prior to commercial use.

GENERAL REMARK : factors affecting adhesion
To ensure application suitability – always test the proposed construction under actual application and end-use conditions before
going into full production.
The following factors will adversely affect adhesion of a pressure-sensitive adhesive:
* Dusty, dirty, oily or oxidized surfaces
* Mould release agents on blow-moulded plastic surfaces
* Low surface energy substrates, such as: polyethylene, polypropylene…
* Application below the minimum application temperature or use outside of the recommended service temperature ranges.
