Sihl Direct introduces ClearSOL WetCling film for solvent and latex inks

Sihl Direct has launched a transparent polyester film for window advertising applications. The new film clings to the window surface when the special coating is activated by soapy water, making it extremely simple to apply and easy to remove. The ClearSOL WetCling Film 125 glossy has a solvent and latex compatible coating and offers an excellent colour reproduction and quality printed image. The clear film has a special coating, which when soaked with soapy water activates a cling effect glue.

This glue in the newly unpacked material means the film can cling to many smooth surfaces, allowing the printed side of the film to be displayed on, for example, glass, aluminium or Dibond. Excess fluid can be squeezed out using a normal window scraper. Thanks to this glue coating the printed image is protected from any mechanical wear and tear and can be removed without leaving residue. As the glue is only activated by soapy water, no release liner is needed, producing less waste during application.
