Differences
between Flexo-Printed and Screen-Printed Items |
|
•
Flexo-Printed materials are not weather proof, therefore
only indoor use is recommended.
• Flexo-Printed inks will vary slightly in color
from our standard screen printed inks.
• Screen-Printed materials are weather proof and
waterproof. They may be used indoors and outdoors. |

Our
standard white or yellow vinyl is a plasticized, flexible,
4 mil film, coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive.
Vinyls are scuff-resistant and ultraviolet-resistant,
so they will withstand outdoor use. Application temperatures
for vinyl material and adhesives range from +35°F
to +185°F. Once applied, vinyl will adhere in temperatures
between -50°F to +185° F. |

exceptionally durable. Permanent adhesive is standard
for long term use inside or out. Polyester substrates
are stiffer than vinyl substrates and are best applied
to flat or gently curved surfaces. They do not readily
conform to irregular surfaces. Application temperatures
are between +45°F and +100°F. The usage temperatures,
after application, are -50°F to +275°F. |
