Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main applications of the D-Line 8500 reflective plotter film?

The D-Line 8500 Series is ideal for a wide range of applications where visibility and safety are essential. This includes the creation of traffic signs, safety and warning signage, vehicle lettering, billboards and facade signage. With its excellent reflective properties, the film ensures that your designs stand out even in dark conditions or inclement weather, increasing the effectiveness of your message.

Is the D-Line 8500 film suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the D-Line 8500 reflective film is designed specifically for outdoor use and has an outdoor durability of up to 7 years. The film is resistant to various weather conditions, including rain, snow, UV rays and temperature fluctuations. This makes it a reliable choice for long-term outdoor applications that retain its reflective properties and color over its lifetime.

How do I process the D-Line 8500 film with a cutter?

The D-Line 8500 film is designed for easy cutting with standard cutting plotters. It is recommended to use a sharp blade with a 60-degree angle for accurate cutting results. Adjust the cutting parameters based on the thickness of the film (110 microns) to ensure optimal performance. After cutting, remove the excess film and apply your design using an appropriate transfer film.

What surfaces can I apply the D-Line 8500 film to?

The film can be applied to various smooth and clean surfaces such as aluminum, steel, glass and painted panels. Make sure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and degreased before applying the film to ensure strong adhesion. For application to plastics, it is recommended that an adhesion test be performed beforehand, as some plastics contain plasticizers that may affect adhesion.

Can I use the D-Line 8500 film for vehicle lettering?

Yes, the D-Line 8500 reflective film is suitable for vehicle lettering and marking. It increases vehicle visibility, especially at night, contributing to road safety. The film is flexible enough to be applied to slightly curved surfaces. For complex curves or ridges, the use of cast reflective film is recommended for optimal performance.

How do I maintain surfaces with applied D-Line 8500 film?

Maintenance is simple. Clean the surface with a mild, non-abrasive detergent and a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents or abrasive materials that may damage the film. When washing vehicles with pressure washers, it is important to maintain a minimum distance of 50 cm and not use excessive temperatures to maintain the integrity of the film.

How long does the D-Line 8500 reflective film last?

The film has an outdoor durability of up to 7 years, depending on weather exposure and quality of installation. By correctly applying the film to a suitable surface and performing regular maintenance, you can maximize its lifespan and performance.


What does the term "engineering grade" stand for in reflective films ?

"Engineering Grade" is a classification used to describe the quality and performance of reflective materials, particularly in the context of road signs, safety markings and signage. The term denotes a reflective film that meets specific standards and is suitable for general applications where good visibility is required.

Key features of Engineering Grade reflective film:

  • Retroreflectivity:Engineering Grade films are designed to efficiently reflect incoming light back to the light source, such as vehicle headlights. This improves the visibility of signs and markings, especially at night or in adverse weather conditions.
  • Material composition:These films use microscopic glass spheres (microspheres) embedded in a plastic backing. This structure provides the reflective properties.
  • Sustainability:Engineering Grade films offer good exterior durability, typically between 5 and 7 years, depending on UV exposure, weather conditions and maintenance.
  • Applications:They are often used for traffic signs, temporary road markings, safety and warning signage, and vehicle lettering where standard reflection is sufficient.

Benefits of Engineering Grade films:

  • Cost-effective:They offer a balance between performance and cost, making them a popular choice for many standard applications.
  • Meets standards:Engineering Grade films meet international standards, such as EN 12899-1 class RA1, which means they meet specific reflectance requirements.

Comparison with other reflection classes:

  • High-Intensity Grade:Provides higher reflectance values than Engineering Grade and is suitable for situations where increased visibility is needed.
  • Diamond Grade:This is the highest reflectivity class with maximum visibility and is used for critical applications such as highway signage and important safety signs.

Summary:

"Engineering Grade" refers to a standard-quality reflective film that provides sufficient reflectance for many general applications. It is a reliable and cost-effective choice for projects where visibility is important, but where the highest levels of reflectivity are not necessary. By choosing an Engineering Grade film such as theD-Line 8500, you can create effective and durable signage that meets the relevant standards and requirements.
