Translucent vs. Transparent Films Translucent Films like ORAJET ® 3850, are designed to be
illuminated by an artificial light source such as fluorescent lamps or LEDs, making it the perfect solution for internally illuminated sign projects such as sign cabinets or channel letters. When using a white acrylic or polycarbonate substrate for illuminated signage, instead consider printing on one of our transparent films, such as ORAJET ® 3651, 3551, or 3951.
Transparent Films are designed to work with natural
light to simulate a “stained glass” effect without obscuring the background. Transparent print films are quickly becoming the norm when applied to white acrylic and polycarbonate sign faces. Applying our transparent solvent-based adhesive films, using a wet application technique, will provide professional looking, crystal clear results. ORAFOL has you covered when it comes to Transparent and Translucent print films!

Wall Graphic Tips: Paint Compatibility

Engineered to Achieve Perfection™
Paint Formulation Changes
Over the past several years the paint industry has made significant changes to paint formulations in an effort to make less of an impact on our environment. Additionally, paint formulations are now more durable and have additives designed to repel dirt and moisture. Consequently, this shift has made it more challenging to achieve a successful graphic installation to these new paint formulations.
Pay special attention to paint coatings that are listed as having the following attributes; Low-VOC, Zero-VOC, Hard-to-stick, “Stainblocking”, “Washable”, or “Scrubbable”. These types of paint coatings may present adhesion challenges between the wall graphic adhesive and the paint coating, and may require the use of an ORAJET ® material with solvent-based or high tack adhesive.

Solvent-based vs. Water-based Adhesive Water-based Adhesive
Products with a water-based adhesive, such as ORAJET ® 3640, typically are a low-cost solution for either indoor or short-term outdoor graphic applications. Common applications include promotional decals, signage, or wall graphics. To avoid adhesive bonding issues with the substrate, do not use wet application methods or in low temperature applications.
Solvent-based Adhesive
Products with a solvent-based adhesive, such as ORAJET ® 3551, are designed for more demanding and longer term applications. The components of this adhesive are combined using solvents, allowing a structurally stronger adhesive that is more resistant to chemicals, cleaning agents and wider temperature ranges. Another important attribute is the ability to wet apply graphics without worry of adhesive bonding issues.

*ORAJET ® 3676 and 3675 are not UV curable print compatible.
The Magic of Window Perf ORAJET ® 3675 (50/50) and ORAJET ® 3676 (60/40) are two of the longest lasting perforated window films on the market, when laminated with ORAGUARD® 297GF Optically Clear over-laminate. ORAGUARD® 297GF is a thicker over-laminate, 2.75-mil, specifically designed for window perf applications. Series 297GF is less prone to collapsing into the perforated holes, which decreases the chance of material punctures or the collection of dirt and moisture. That means better visibility for you! Outside View
Perforated window graphics are perfect for businesses that require more branded store front communication, but are limited by signage ordinances. Window graphics are typically

not included in local signage ordinances.

Printable Glow-in-the-Dark Film ORAJET ® 3930 Photoluminescent, or glow-in-the-dark, film can be used for many different applications including:
• Indoor safety and regulatory signage in hospitals, office buildings, schools, movie theaters, railroad engines, daycares, etc.
• Creative graphic applications in bowling alleys, arcades, and laser tag venues.
Daytime
So, how does it work?
The material needs to be charged by a light source for approximately 30-60 minutes. The material will appear to
Nighttime
glow brightest in pitch black room conditions. Glow time varies depending on the amount of charge received from a light source. The material will glow for approximately 6-8 hours before needing to be recharged by a light source. The amount of glow will typically dim and extinguish during this 6-8 hour period.
Special Consideration:
Only the non-printed or lightly printed areas of the ORAJET ® 3930 Photoluminescent film will glow. This material can be Solvent, Eco-Solvent, Latex, and UV Printed. Match this material with ORAGUARD® 293 or ORAGUARD® 293 for added graphic protection. Image courtesy of BrainBKT Graphics, Greendale, IN. ORAJET ® 3930 with ORAGUARD ® 293.
