After many chats with printers about 'polycarbonate laminate' I have now found that I've been asking for the wrong thing, at least here in the UK. Apparently the finish is known as 'crystal matt laminate' - hope that helps in the quest for decent CPO printing.

Good info thanks.
@jimmer I will grab some envelopes tomorrow and post you out something on saturday, minwah may also give a second opinion as he now has some examples of the pixart stuff.
Man I should be on commision :) .

jimmer:


I have so many questions about the choices on this page! Can anyone help?
http://www.pixartprinting.co.uk/wide-format/printing-self-adhesive-pvc/flat-surface-adhesive/

What is the standard back colour? What difference does the back colour make?

What's the difference between polymeric and monomeric? How is polymeric (presumably) better?

If HD is 3000dpi (Really? or it that 300dpi?) what is Standard dpi ?

Is Walk-on gloss or matt?




jimmer:

Got my samples, thanks  :cheers:

The larger one you sent me (Tempest?) is Matt and textured. I like this one for feel and look, will have to test it to see how it will wear.

The gloss one I don't like the look, but feels like it will wear very well.

The WIZ01 machine label, is matt and smooth. Probably my favourite although it is disadvantage by not having colour graphics on it.

So, what are the materials?

PM`ed you as without the samples to look at this makes no sense to anyone else. ;)
