This process involves applying a hot film to the top and a cold backing adhesive to the bottom of the graphic. This process can be used to create self-adhe- sive images for mounting down onto various sub- strates. After performing this process, follow the Mounting Instructions in the manual to apply the decal to a substrate.

Note: When using Mounting Adhesive on the back of images it is best to run over both idlers. Running the film under the second idler may cause the backing to separate from the release liner.
