Thermal Film Finishes Guidelines
- Silk screen inks and some copier innks will not bond.
- Thermal copies and faxes are not suitable for lamination.
- Aqueous coated sheets must be allowed to completely dry after printing.
- All varnishes and aqueous coatings must have a compatible primer and not an over coat.
- Metallic inks may not completely. Bond imitation metallics are recommended.
- One side thermal film lamination requires press sheets to provide 1/2" clearance on all sides which are free of all coating and inks.
- Inks must be completely dry and free of excess spray powder.
- Plastic and vinyl sheets must be tested for blistering prior to laminating.
- Text and web press sheets may wrinkle.
