FLITE Technology is an adhesive and liner system that allows graphics to float over a substrate until firm pressure is applied. In this video you will see all the benefits of FLITE Technology and how it will make your install faster and easier.

What is FLITE Technology, and How Does It Make Wrapping Easier?
00:14
FLITE Technology is new to all of us,
00:16
and it's better than anything you've worked with before,
00:19
so here are a few things you should know:
00:23
FLITE Technology is a lite contact system
00:26
which allows graphics to float over a substrate
00:29
until firm pressure is applied.
00:33
The liner release is effortless.
00:39
With the lite initial contact of FLITE Technology,
00:42
you can float it, snap it up, and reposition large graphics with ease,
00:47
making most wraps a solo application.
00:54
And even after you've applied your graphic,
00:56
you can immediately snap it up again.
01:02
Just apply firm pressure with overlapping strokes
01:06
to ensure contact over the entire surface.
01:11
It takes only a short time for the adhesive
01:14
to build a strong bond.
01:23
The adhesive sets up quickly and stays where you put it.
01:31
The first thing you'll notice
01:34
is that the adhesive feels light to the touch.
01:40
So how does it stay down?
01:44
Here's a quick look at how the bond increases.
01:48
When pressure is applied,
01:50
the adhesive whets out a little and makes contact with the substrate.
01:53
As time elapses, or post heat temperatures are applied,
01:57
the adhesive whets out more and more contact is made
02:00
building quickly to it's final bond strength.
02:03
If you look closely, you can see that the adhesive has
02:07
a matte finish before it is applied.
02:10
Now we'll apply the graphic to the corner of the hood.
02:14
This graphic was post-heated and
02:17
allowed to whet out for just an hour.
02:20
You can see as we lift the graphic
02:22
that there is strength to the bond
02:24
and the area that was applied,
02:26
now has a high gloss finish
02:28
similar to the surface of the substrate
02:30
proving that the adhesive has whetted out.
02:35
FLITE Technology is amazing.
02:37
You can float it,
02:39
snap it,
02:41
reposition it,
02:43
and reapply it!
02:45
And your applications will stay down tight.
02:59
Once you've worked with FLITE Technology,
03:01
you'll stick with it.
03:03
If you're a novice, it'll help you get the job done.
03:06
If you're an expert,
03:07
it will help you get the job done faster.
03:09
It's not just air egress, it's better!
