The maximum allowable ink saturation is 270. 2 Drying Requirements Solvent Eco-solvent and Mild-solvent inkjet prints require 24 - 48 hr. drying time - open to the air. Inks do not dry when printed media is rolled up. The prints must be dry prior to lamination. 3 Laminating Conditions If the printed graphic is likely to be exposed to corrosive liquids smoke fumes and highly polluted areas or there is a likelihood of scratching it is highly recommended to laminate with Permacolor PermaGard Series high performance or ColorGard LUV Series intermediate overlaminating films. 4 Application Do not use wet application fluids when applying this media unless it is specifically designed for emulsion adhesives. Standard application fluids including soap or detergent in water may cause the adhesive to turn white. 5 Transportation Conditions To allow for easy transportation REBEL series can be rolled up with the image out with a minimum diameter of 6 inches 15cm. When the image is not protected by an overlaminate make sure the print is completely dry and protected in a plastic bag. During transportation or storage avoid exposing them to extreme temperature.
