Custom Graphic Overlays – The Basics

Custom graphic overlays are digitally cut and sub-surface printed into Lexan® and other materials to provide the most accurate fitting and durable custom overlays. Digital cutting is done to a tolerance of .067 inches on each graphic overlay using plotter driven tools that eliminate the need for expensive custom graphic overlay dies. All printing for custom graphic overlays, including variable barcodes, numbering and text is done from behind - providing clear and deep sub-surface protection of the graphic overlay design. The predominate material for custom graphic overlays, Lexan®, is just one of the many graphic overlay materials we offer. All custom graphic overlays ship within 3 days standard.


Custom Graphic Overlays – Popular Uses

Custom graphic overlays are used in many commercial, industrial, military and consumer applications. Lexan graphic overlays, originally developed for military use, are the most common custom graphic overlays because of the durable nature of printed Lexan®. Here are some popular examples of custom graphic overlays:

  • Military Use: Custom graphic overlays are used on submarines, aircraft and vehicle bodies and for numerous control panel graphic overlay applications.
  • Industrial Use: Custom graphic overlays are used on interior and exterior control panels for applications ranging from heavy equipment to fine instruments.
  • Commercial Use: Lexan® and LexValu™ for curved areas is used on custom graphic overlays for espresso machines, to HVAC units.
  • Consumer Use: Cell phones, laptops, PDAs and many consumer devices use custom graphic overlays to protect vital interfaces.

Overlaminate: What's this?

OVERLAMINATES

can be applied after printing to most materials, except Lexan®. The overlaminate will provide additional protection, and can create a high gloss or matte finish. For most uses, an overlaminate is not required to protect the label.

1 and 2 mil Gloss Polyester Laminates Clear high gloss finish. Best used on flat surfaces

1 mil Tedlar UV Guard Overlaminate used to protect labels from UV exposure.

1 mil Matte Polyester This overlaminate provides thermal stability and moisture resistance.

8 mil Convex Vinyl Used for labels that need applied to complex curves, such as helmets. Extra thick for impact protection and rough environments.

8 mil Velvet Polypropylene This overlaminate film is used to achieve a durable, scuff/abrasion resistant finish.

LexValue™ 5 mil Velvet The LexValue™ overlamination process can be utilized on printed Vinyl or Polyester as an alternate to subsurface printed Lexan® for creating control panels or nameplates.


Laminating Adhesive: What's this?

LAMINATING ADHESIVE

You only need to choose a laminating adhesive when using LEXAN® material. All other materials already have adhesive. Please note that using a thicker adhesive will not increase the strength of the bond to most surfaces; it can in fact it could possibly do the exact opposite to the final product. There are three choices of adhesives to choose from:

2 mil 3M #467MP used for mainly smooth surfaces

2 mil LSE used for adhering to Low Surface Energy

5 mil 3M #468MP used for very rough surfaces
