MACtransfer 230 Application Tape
Product Description
MACtransfer 230 application tape consists of a transparent, 4.5 mil, non-static lightly textured,
polyethylene film coated on one side with a medium to high tack, pressure sensitive adhesive. It is
designed to assist in the transfer and application of medium to large size pressure sensitive decals that
have been die cut into letters, legends, striping and logos. The non-glare surface enables perfect
registration, does not wrinkle or stretch and is easy to nick and tear when needed. It also has a general
application use in the protection of most finished or polished surfaces during fabrication, storage,
shipment and handling.
