Lumina by FDC 7038 Series 3.0 mil Calendered Overlaminate

Lumina by FDC 7038 is an intermediate-grade, calendered vinyl laminate designed to provide medium-term protection for printed graphics. It is a "workhorse" product in the signage industry, specifically engineered to shield calendered vinyl films from environmental wear. 

• UV Resistance: Provides up to 5 years of outdoor durability, preventing premature fading of printed colors.
• Physical Defense: Acts as a barrier against abrasion, scratches, and common chemicals.
• Clear Finish: Maintains high clarity to ensure the underlying graphics remain sharp and vibrant. 

• Thickness: 3.0 mil (standard) or 3.2 mil depending on the specific roll version.
• Adhesive: Clear, permanent acrylic adhesive for a strong bond to vinyl substrates.
• Conformability: Suitable for flat surfaces and simple curves (e.g., rigid signage or basic vehicle decals).
• Application: Applied using a cold lamination process.
• Liner: 80# PE Kraft liner for stable handling during processing. 

• Gloss (000): High-shine finish for maximum color pop.
• Luster (100): A soft, semi-gloss finish that reduces glare while maintaining depth.
• Matte (200): A flat finish that eliminates reflections, ideal for high-light indoor environments.

• General Signage: Interior and exterior promotional signs.
• Decals & Labels: Protecting product stickers and safety labels.
• Simple Vehicle Graphics: Logos and lettering on flat automotive panels.
• Window Graphics: Retail and commercial window displays.
