Polyesters are very "dimensionally stable" and will not stretch or shrink. Therefore, they do not conform well to irregular surfaces or compound curves. They are resistant to chemicals. Polyesters are suited for indoor or outdoor use.
Our custom and stock polyester products make two adhesive choices available. All are environmentally friendly, water-based acrylic, pressure sensitive adhesives. They also perform well in hot or cold temperatures, indoors or outdoors. Any adhesive decal must be applied to a clean surface to perform properly.
Twenty-four hours after application this adhesive will be at its maximum strength. It has a high peel value indicating that while it is possible to remove the decal it cannot be easily or cleanly removed. Choose this polyester/adhesive combination for warning or instructional decals, branding decals, equipment markings, or other applications in which permanence is a requirement.
With the lowest peel strength, decals with this adhesive will remove with no adhesive transfer yet provide good holding properties for many months. Choose this polyester/adhesive combination for short-term promotions, temporary signage, point of purchase labeling, or other applications in which clean removability is a requirement. Specialty polyesters or adhesives are also available. Contact us for more information.
