Advancements in Vinyl Graphics
Technology
One of the most noticeable
advances when it comes to vinyl installation is the adhesive that is now
available for use with vehicle graphics.
Vinyl graphics have been used to enhance a cars performance for quite
some time. These non-destructive graphics have been popular among
truckers, race car drivers, and many others. They come in a wide variety
of shapes, colors, and sizes. These graphics used to be fairly difficult
to install and remove, usually requiring the help of a professional.
One of the most noticeable advances when it comes to vinyl installation
is the adhesive that is now available for use with vehicle graphics.
Previously, vinyl needed to be installed with hazardous solvents and
special equipment, necessitating the use of a professional for
installation. Removal was also difficult, often requiring the use of
extreme heat which damaged the vehicles finish.
Installation and removal of vinyl is now much simpler. Companies that
focus on vinyl and adhesives, such as 3M, have also created tools to
make it easier for the non-professional to install their products.
Besides tools, they have also created vinyl that installs and removes
easily.
Some of the new vinyl products can be installed lightly and then
positioned correctly, all without damaging either the vinyl or the
vehicle finish. This is done through the use of pressure sensitive
adhesive, which does not fully set until firm pressure is applied.
Another kind of vinyl allows air bubbles to escape so they will not
detract from the look of the graphics.
