Frequently Asked Questions about white waterproof vinyl:

Is this material available in a matte white finish?

This material is presently only available as a glossy finish. Using an Over Laminate sheet, such as Papilio's Poly Focus Matte (PFM) can give this media a matte finish.

Just how removable is removable?

The adhesive strength on the removable vinyl is actually quite strong. It is designed to last, in place, for long durations but also afford the user the flexibility to remove the decal as required. In the event residue is left behind after removal, simple citric acid products or gunk removers are effective in cleaning the surface.

I'd like to attach a decal to the side of my boat, can this media be submerged for long periods and retain its waterproof nature?

This is not recommended, but may be achievable if the right coating is applied, such as a thick coat of 2 part polyurethane. It is less likely that the ink wash off the page than it is that the adhesive will become worn. If submerged, the adhesive properties of the paper will decrease and eventually the printed design may simply fall off the surface.

How long might a printed design be expected to last in the sun?

This will be entirely dependant upon the type of toner used to print the image, but the life expectancy of a laser printed decal over that of an inkjet decal is much, much greater. You might expect a laser decal to last for months or up to years.
