Frequently asked questions
How do I know which side to apply to the printed graphic and which side is the removable side?
The permanent side goes on the printed graphic and has a PET clear liner. The removable side has a 90# paper air-egress liner. This is the removable side that is applied to the glass surface.
What types of applications is GF 117 good for?
GF 117 is intended for application to glass, but may be used on other substrates, test for your specific uses. GF 117 can be used with graphic film and paper laminations and it is not a structural mounting tape. GF 117 is designed to produce two sided decals using digital prints, screen printed and other printed images for application to glass. These decals are cleanly removable. In all cases, the substrates must be clean and free of dust, dirt and oil. This product is not recommended for tinted or laminated windows.
