PROTEX 55
Protex 55 is a 4-5 mil latex saturated paper, designed for pre-spacing and application of large or small surface area decals. The tack level of the product gives proper adhesion as needed to lift the connected film from its release liner, in registration, for application to substrate. It is also used on punched stencil material (Sharpline 200) to hold letters in place for transporting and application. It may also be applied directly to bare aluminum, stainless steel or painted surfaces to protect from scratches.
*This product is not intended for fly-away applications. Test prior to use on copper, brass or anodized aluminum or before outdoor exposure..
