This process involves applying a cold pressure-sensi- tive over-laminate to the top and a cold pressure- sensitive mounting adhesive to the bottom of a graphic. This process can be used to create self- adhesive images for mounting down onto various substrates. After performing this process, follow the Mounting Instructions in the manual to apply the decal to a substrate.

NOTE: Pressure-sensitive films, not requiring heat, can be run from the front or rear of the laminator

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.
