Advancements in Vinyl Graphics Technology

Advances in adhesive technology are behind many of the innovations in vinyl graphics.

For years the popular way to modify a car surface was the use of non-destructive vinyl graphics. These graphics can be produced in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, and have been the standard among professional and non-professional drivers alike. Recent innovations in vinyl graphics have made these stickers easier to both install and remove, as well as to modify. You no longer need a professional to assist you.

Advances in adhesive technology are behind many of the innovations in vinyl graphics. Previously, vinyl graphics need to be installed and removed by a professional as the adhesives required the use of potentially dangerous chemicals and specialized tools. High heat used to be needed to remove old vinyl graphics, which often led to damage to the vehicles finish.

Vinyl products are now easier to both install and remove. 3M, a major producer of both vinyl products and adhesives, has developed tools that can be used by the non-professional to install their own graphics. Besides tools, the vinyl itself has a new type of adhesive that makes it easier to apply and remove.

There are new pressure sensitive adhesives which allow you to lightly affix your graphic, and then make adjustment so that it is placed perfectly. You can adjust the graphic without harming either the vinyl or your cars surface, as the adhesive is not fully activated until you apply firm pressure. Other types of vinyl reduce air bubbles by allowing air to escape even after you have applied the graphic.
