Summit 24" x 100' 8 Mil Microporous Gloss Polypropylene Roll
|
8 Mil Microporous Gloss Polypropylene provides the true photographic look and feel needed to reproduce advertising quality photo art onto an economical banners material used for POP displays, retail graphics, long-term indoor signs, and short-term outdoor signs. The bright-white, glossy, fast drying microporous surface is particularly good for reproducing detailed, vibrant color images with aqueous dye and pigmented inks. Prints produced with dye inks are water-resistant and with pigment inks are waterproof. The durable 8 mil thickness provides good tear-resistance, easy handling and provides the rigidity needed for use in banner stands.

RIP & Printer Media Settings
For the best and most consistent results, a profile should be created using an external color calibrator in conjunction with your RIP and color matching software. However, if these tools are not available, printers using dye ink should be set for the highest print quality and media selection should be “Photopaper”. When using UV inks, the “heavy weight coated” option should be selected. Ink coverage up to 300% is recommended.
Light Fastness
The fading time of inkjet ink is a direct result of the inks that you choose to use and the environment where the print is displayed. Please consult with your ink manufacturer for light fastness data
