Long description

Exceptional flexibility for complex applications

D-Line P8181 AE38C is designed to meet the most challenging surfaces, such as corrugated panels, rivets and deep notches. Its molded PVC composition allows it to be stretched and formed without compromising the integrity of the film, making it perfect for full vehicle wraps and intricate designs.

Air Escape technology for effortless installation

The film's structured release liner contains Air Escape channels, allowing air bubbles to escape more easily during application. This feature, combined with low initial adhesion, allows repositioning until perfect placement is achieved, reducing installation time and errors.

Superior opacity with gray adhesive

The gray solvent-based permanent acrylic adhesive enhances the opacity of the film and ensures that underlying colors or graphics do not show through. This is especially beneficial when applying the film to dark or contrasting surfaces, maintaining the vibrancy and accuracy of your prints.

Compatibility with multiple printing technologies

D-Line P8181 AE38C is compatible with a range of printing methods, including solvent, eco-solvent, latex and UV printers. This versatility ensures high-quality prints with vibrant colors and sharp details to meet various project requirements.

Long-term durability

Designed for outdoor use, the D-Line P8181 AE38C offers a lifespan of up to 7 years under Central European conditions. Its resistance to UV radiation, chemicals and moisture ensures that your applications remain intact and visually appealing over time.

Recommended lamination for enhanced protection

For added durability and protection from environmental conditions, we recommend laminating D-Line P8181 AE38C with D-Line's L801 (gloss) or L804 (matte). These laminates provide additional resistance to scratches, UV rays and other potential damage, extending the life of your applications.

Storage and processing

To maintain the quality of D-Line P8181 AE38C, store the film vertically in its original packaging at temperatures between 10°C and 20°C and 50% relative humidity. Make sure prints have dried sufficiently - 48 hours for standard prints and up to 72 hours for prints with high ink loads - before laminating or applying.
