Important Information for Our Resellers: Understanding and Choosing the Right Transparent Window Graphics.
As a valued trade supplier, we understand the importance of providing you with high-quality products you can confidently offer your customers.
One popular choice for enhancing storefronts and glass surfaces is transparent window graphics. While these products offer significant visual appeal, there are key factors to consider to ensure customer satisfaction upon installation.
Why Transparent Window Graphics Can Appear Milky.
The initial milky or cloudy appearance of transparent window graphics is a common concern that might arise post-installation.
This effect is primarily due to the type of adhesive used on the vinyl. Most transparent graphics utilize a water-based adhesive, which, while eco-friendly and easy to handle, is susceptible to moisture.
During installation or in humid conditions, this adhesive can interact with moisture, leading to a temporary milky appearance due to the scattering of light through the moisture-altered adhesive.
The Solution: Solvent-Based Adhesives.
To avoid this issue and ensure your customers are satisfied from day one, we recommend opting for graphics that use solvent-based adhesives.
Solvent adhesives are not affected by moisture in the same way and thus maintain their clarity even when exposed to elements that typically impact water-based products.
Premium Options: Optically Clear Films.
For customers who demand the best in terms of clarity and quality, we suggest our range of optically clear films.
These films utilize a high-grade, solvent-based adhesive that offers impeccable transparency immediately upon application.
Optically clear films are ideal for high-end installations where even the slightest imperfection could detract from the customer’s branding or aesthetic goals.
