Re: Matte paper with Adhesive back

2009-08-02 by Chuck Behrman

I've been using two papers for a couple years and one other for about a year.

Lexjet Water Resistant Self Adhesive Polypropylene (permanent) & Digital Art Supplies Sticky Indoor Backlit (removable) have both shown very good results both in print quality and as far as adhesion. Both materials have a translucent white base.

The third is Lexjet Phototex cloth material that can be used as a removable wallpaper. I've found that the image quality of this material is not as acute as the others because it is a cloth base rather than polypropylene. However, the print quality is very good and the material can easily be removed from a painted surface without damage.

I'm using both Piezography inks and ConeColor inks on all three materials with excellent results.

I ask becasuse my various attempts at attaching prints to backing myself, w/o using a press, have constantly met with disaster.  The worst was a show in which areas peeled away over time and had to be tacked back down throughout the show.  It was a nightmare.  Please let me know how you are using the adhesive papers.  Thanks.
