General Formulations GF 118 Mounting Film 1.0 mil Polyester with Clear Double-sided Adhesive
GF 118 is a double-coated pressure sensitive 1.0 mil clear polyester film with a permanent adhesive on one side and a removable adhesive on the other side. GF 118 has a two-liner construction. One side has a 1.2 mil clear polyester liner printed with “Remove to Expose Adhesive” to identify the removable adhesive and allows the graphics to be viewed after lamination. The other side has a 1.5 mil clear polyester liner for added clarity and wet out (permanent adhesive side). This product is designed for laminating thin flexible plastic films and papers commonly found in graphics for temporary application to glass. GF 118 clear mounting film can be laminated by a cold laminating process without the addition of heat.
