Frequently asked questions

Should I use backlit film or backlit sticker?

Use the film (B230F or B231F) for graphics that slide into a light-box frame. Use the self-adhesive sticker (B232S) when the graphic is applied directly to an acrylic or polycarbonate sign face.

Can B231F matt backlit film be printed with eco-solvent ink?

It is not recommended. We advise UV or latex ink for B231F matt backlit film. For eco-solvent printing, use B230F gloss backlit film or the B232S satin backlit sticker, both suited to UV, latex and eco-solvent prints. B230F and B231F are 220 micron translucent PET films made in Korea, and all three are rated for 24 months outdoors.
