ICON 444LSE

ICON® 444LSE is a 82 micron flexible white polymeric vinyl film, backed with a highly aggressive pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive system featuring FLO® Technology, specifically engineered for bubble-free adhesion to difficult substrates. Suggested application to low surface energy plastics, powdercoated metals, and most smooth metal surfaces.

 

Recommended Uses

Substance Incorporated recommends the following end uses for ICON® 444LSE:
Excellent bubble-free adhesion to a wide variety of smooth HSE/LSE plastics.
Helmet graphics for aggressive sports when combined with Ultracurve® 1000 or 1500. Graphics for RC cars, coolers, porta-johns, drums/tanks, and ice arena dasher boards. Permanent bubble-free adhesion to many smooth difficult to adhere to substrates.

Installation

Before applying an overlaminate, allow 24-48 hours for print to dry. Application surface must be free of dust, dirt, debris, grease, and other contaminants. We highly recommend cleaning the installation surface with isopropyl alcohol prior to application. Dry installation is recommended. Due to a highly-aggressive adhesive system, 444LSE will exhibit a slightly higher amount of shrinkage than standard calendered vinyl films.
