    Features & Benefits

    Features
      Available in over 200 custom colors, eight textures and thicknesses from 0.71mm (0.028) and up
    • Easy to clean graffiti/spray paint, lipstick, pen, grease and grime with cleaners such as Soft Scrub®, Fantastic®, and citrus-based cleaners such as Cirti Kleen HD® (avoid ammoniated cleaners)
    • Resistant to a wide range of concentrated chemicals and solvents, withstands frequent cleaning without staining or fading
    • Forms to deep draws with low forces when heated to the upper range of 163 - 200°C (325 - 392°F) and an unusually high resistance to hot tearing
    • Can be formed on all standard presses and cut on all standard die-cutting machines
