LexJet Water-Resistant Satin Cloth is a lightweight, water-resistant, wrinkle-resistant, tear-resistant polyester fabric that produces excellent image quality. It has quickly become a popular option for photo exhibitions, trade-show graphics, P-O-P displays, and décor art.
LexJet Water-Resistant Satin Cloth has been used in retractable banner stands, art-gallery exhibitions, table skirts, window shades, flags, privacy screens, and dozens of other applications. This cloth is a great alternative to traditional backlit films, because the colors really pop when prints on Water-Resistant Satin Cloth are lit from behind.
It also feels soft and luxurious and is easy to hang and transport. As its name implies, this cloth is highly resistant to water (particularly with pigment inks).
The coating can hold high levels of ink saturation for richer, more brilliant color on the ultra-white base polyester cloth.
LexJet Water-Resistant Satin Cloth works with dye or pigment inks.

Printer/Ink Compatibility | Compatible with all thermal and piezo inkjet printers using water-based dye and pigment-based inks. |
Software Settings | The coating on this product is engineered for better than 400% ink coverage. The Heavy Weight Coated setting in most RIPs is appropriate; however, we recommend a custom ICC profile for optimal results. Please refer to www.lexjet.com for ICC profiles for some printers. |
Light Fastness | The fading time of ink jet ink is a direct result of the inks that you choose, as well as the environment where the print is displayed. All dye-based inks fade noticeably under direct sunlight and in interior applications where direct sunlight may fall on the image, and/or, where fluorescent or other UV lighting is present. Although the fading process is inherent in all ink jet inks, certain UV enhanced inks, pigment-based inks, and UV inhibiting coatings will extend the longevity of ink color. Contact the ink manufacturer to determine a specific ink's suitability for a particular application. |
Finishing/Post Processing | No post processing or finishing is required on this paper, however, a clear fixative, such as LexJet Sunset Coatings, may be applied to enhance certain areas of the print. |
Optimal Print Environment | 66-77° F , 50% R.H For end use: 0-300° F |
Handling Recommendations | Due to the absorptive nature of the coating, you should avoid touching the coated surface. It's always recommended that cotton gloves be used when handling inkjet coated materials. Rolls of LexJet film are supplied with the coated side facing out. |
Ideal Storage Conditions | 70° F (21° C), 50% R.H. (a controlled environment is recommended); store in original packaging. |
