Crystalblue solvent acrylic adhesive from Hexis UK
A new generation of solvent acrylic adhesives called Crystalblue is available from Hexis UK. It has been developed to help improve the images and graphics printed on vinyls when using solvent, eco-solvent and UV-curable inkjet printers.
Vinyl that has grey or black adhesive can look dull in appearance and the printed result may not be as vibrant as expected. Vinyls with clear adhesive may allow the target substrate to show through the printed vinyl, reducing the clarity of the printed image itself. To combat these problems Crystalblue adhesive technology is a special colour blue that has been specially formulated to support the opacity of a vinyl film when applying onto a dark substrate. As well as helping white vinyl to look brighter, images that are printed onto a Crystalblue media also appear brighter and sharper.
The permanent Crystalblue solvent acrylic adhesive technology allows the product to stick to a wide variety of surfaces, such as painted walls, foam board, acrylic, steel, composite aluminium sheet, vehicles and glass. All Crystalblue media has an ultra white high gloss finish with a fast drying formulation.
