Wrapping with SLX? Cast Wrap

This video will demonstrate all the benefits for wrapping with SLX? Cast Wrap and why it will make wrapping faster and easier

Wrapping with SLX? Cast Wrap
00:13
The next big innovation in wraps is here.
00:15
Let me introduce you to Arlon's SLX Cast Wrap with FLITE Technology.
00:21
When wrapping on horizontal surfaces,
00:23
adhesives tend to tack up on the edges of indentations like these.
00:28
With SLX Cast Wrap with FLITE Technology,
00:31
the vinyl will float over these surfaces
00:33
until you initiate contact with your squeegee
00:36
which makes wrapping hoods and roofs a snap.
00:40
Right off the printer, SLX Cast Wrap feels light to the touch.
00:46
To optimize performance of SLX Cast Wrap,
00:49
we recommend to always use Series 3270 Overlaminate with it.
00:59
The ease of release of this liner requires less effort
01:03
and creates less static than many other competitive products.
01:12
SLX Cast Wrap snaps up effortlessly
01:15
even after being repositioned several times.
01:19
This highly saturated print floats over the surface of the vehicle.
01:31
And should you make this mistake
01:33
and cause the adhesive to make contact with itself,
01:35
SLX Cast Wrap will separate from itself without putting a stretch in the film
01:40
allowing you to place your graphic where you want it, every time.
01:49
Applying this graphic is easy because of the lite contact
01:53
SLX Cast Wrap film with FLITE Technology makes with the substrate.
01:57
And even after it's been applied with firm pressure,
02:00
you can easily snap it right back up.
02:05
Whether applying over a body line or flat surface,
02:08
the lite initial contact from FLITE Technology
02:11
makes your graphic float on a cushion of air
02:14
which prevents pre-tacking,
02:16
the leading cause of bubbles and wrinkles.
02:19
SLX Cast Wrap is very conformable, allowing cold stretches in channels like this.
02:26
It's adhesive sets up very quickly, so it stays where you put it.
02:32
Even wrinkles like these, formed by tension,
02:34
are easily worked out with a teflon squeegee.
02:48
SLX Cast Wrap allows you to work out bubbles you may have missed with ease.
02:58
Let's finish this up and move on to the roof.
03:04
Once again, you can see how easily the
03:07
liner is removed, and with very little static.
03:15
The flat, horizontal surface of the roof best demonstrates
03:19
how SLX Cast Wrap with FLITE Technology floats over the surface of the vehicle.
03:25
Even though it's a heavily saturated print,
03:28
this film applies effortlessly and snaps up
03:31
with no elongation or distortion of your image.
03:40
Handling large amounts of exposed adhesive
03:43
is a common problem for solo wrappers.
03:47
We suggest trimming out wheel wells,
03:50
and making a backslit at a midpoint in the graphic
03:53
but SLX Cast Wrap does all the heavy lifting from there.
04:01
Snapping up to get your graphic perfectly
04:03
positioned is easy
04:05
and even if you get a wrinkle, just snap it up
04:08
and lay it down until it falls smoothly over the body line.
04:17
Here we have a more complex set of curves
04:20
and a much wider and longer section of the graphic to manage.
04:25
But notice how easy it is to tweak the position
04:28
of the graphic and drape it perfectly over the body lines.
04:35
Make sure to overlap your squeegee strokes
04:38
and your application will be finished with ease
04:41
and speed that will surprise you.
05:02
Arlon's SLX Cast Wrap with FLITE Technology
05:05
is so much better, that what used to take a whole team
05:08
of installers can be done with a single installer: You.
