DURABILITY: The indoor durability of this film is 5 – 6 years and the outdoor durability of the unprinted
film is up to 4 years. Over lamination of the inkjet-printed material with Permacolor®
overlaminates
minimizes yellowing of the print media and delays color fading that may occur over time. This color
fading is mainly dependent upon the inks quality (see technical data sheets given by the ink
manufacturers) and the pressure sensitive media being used.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Always test your combination of IMAGin products, inks and laminating films prior to commercial use.
1) Printing Conditions: Print in conditioned pressroom at ±73°F (23°C) and 50% RH. Ink
saturation should not exceed 270%.
2) Drying Requirements: Solvent, Eco-solvent and Mild-solvent inkjet prints require 24 – 48 hr.
drying time – open to the air. Inks do not dry when printed media is rolled up. The prints must be
dry prior to lamination.
3) Laminating Conditions: If the printed graphic is likely to be exposed to corrosive liquids,
smoke, fumes and highly polluted areas or there is a likelihood of scratching it is highly
recommended you laminate with Permacolor LF3600 series (High Performance), CG8000 series
(intermediate) or PG7000 (economical) overlaminating films. Please be aware that adding an
overlaminate will significantly reduce conformability to complex surfaces.
4) Transportation Conditions: To allow for easy transportation, IMAGin series can be rolled up,
with the image out, with a minimum diameter of 6 inches (15cm). When the image is not
protected by an overlaminate, make sure the print is completely dry and protected in a plastic bag.
During transportation or storage, avoid exposing them to extreme temperature and humidity
changes.

SHELF LIFE:
2 years from D.O.M. when stored at 60/77°F (15/25°C) and 50% relative humidity in the original
package.
