Installation
Before applying an overlaminate, allow 24 hours for print to dry. Application surface must be free of dust, dirt, debris, grease, and other contaminants. We highly recommend cleaning the installation surface with isopropyl alcohol prior to application. Dry installation is recommended. After working out any bubbles in the film, mild heat may be used during installation to help X1 conform to irregular surfaces.
