Inkjet Media Preparation |
Printer manufacturers recommend that you allow your print to dry for a minimum of 24 hours before lamination. In areas with high humidity dry times can be longer. |
Laminator Compatibility |
It's recommended that your laminator be equipped with a release liner take-up reel. All LexJet laminates are provided on 3" standard cores. |
Laminator Settings |
NO HEAT IS REQUIRED. Apply 40-80 psi and use 2-5 feet per minute for dwell time, depending on the application. The top and bottom web tension should be minimal so memory will not be a factor. |
Adhesive Cure Time |
After applying the laminate, allow curing for a minimum of 2 hours before cutting or trimming. Maximum bond strength is reached in 24 hours. |
