GF 851 Cut & Craft Vinyl 3.4 Mil Matte Yellow Vinyl With Clear Removable Adhesive
GF 851 Yellow Paint Mask is a 3.4 mil matte yellow vinyl coated with a removable acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive on a 78# clay-coated liner. The vinyl is formulated for ease of cutting while retaining resistance to common solvents encountered in typical spray paints and automotive finishes. In combination with the removable acrylic adhesive, this product has the tack to withstand edge lifting in normal painting processes while removing cleanly after the paint has dried. The 78# bleached kraft liner provides an excellent base for plotter cut graphics and home craft applications.
