JT5828R has up to 2 year removability after application. Overlamination of the inkjet-printed material with Permacolor or IMAGin overlaminates delays color fading that may occur over time. This color fading is mainly dependent upon the inks quality see technical data sheets given by the ink manufacturers and the pressure sensitive media being used.

Printer and heater settings and ICC profiles can also be downloaded from some O.E.M. or software manufacturers websites. The ICC profiles are provided solely as a customer resource. Print environments the individual nature of prin
ting systems inks and software can significantly affect output. It is the customers responsibility to determine the suitability of any profile for use in their specific print environment. Shelf Life 2 year from D.O.M. when stored at 6077F 1525C and 50 relative humidity in the original package. Removability This product has 2 year removability after application on many surfaces. The removability of JT5828R may be affected by the following substrates polystyrene nitrocellulose painted surfaces and soft PVC. With such substrates an increase of adhesion over time may occur and adhesive residue on removal may be noticed Limitations Due to the wide variability of interior walls sealants and paints no claims for successful applications to or removal from painted wall surfaces are made by MACtac. It is the users responsibility to determine the products suitability for the intended wall. 1 The user is responsible for determining the products suitability including adhesion and if needed removal characteristics when used in applications other than listed specifically in this Performance Guide. 2 If there are any questions about applications please contact your Mactac sales representative to discuss your requirements for recommendations. 3 If this is a printed Performance Guide it is an uncontrolled document.

Recommendations Always test your combination of JT5000 products inks and laminating films prior to commercial use. 1 Printing Conditions Print in conditioned pressroom at 73F 23C and 50 RH. 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 highly polluted areas or there is a likelihood of sc
ratching it is highly recommended to laminate with Permacolor ColorGard LUV series Intermediate or PromoGard economy overlaminating films. Please be aware that adding an overlaminate will significantly reduce conformability to complex surfaces. 4 Transportation Conditions To allow for easy transportation IMAGin JT5000 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 and humidity changes. Values given are typical and are not necessarily for use in specification.
