3M™ Scotchcal™ Clear Overlaminate 8580

Description

3M Scotchcal Clear Overlaminate 8580 is a thin, extremely flexible clear vinyl film designed for high conformability on recessed surfaces and deep channels. With a basis weight of 60 g/m² (film and adhesive), it features a gloss finish, pressure-sensitive clear adhesive, and 120 g/m² paper liner, offering service temperatures from -60°C to 107°C. This overlaminate provides superior ultraviolet and physical protection for digitally imaged graphics, particularly those for automotive OEM applications in signage, printing, and visual communications. It excels in conformability and lifting resistance due to proprietary film technology, making it ideal for complex contours where standard films may fail. Key features include resistance to mild alkalis, mild acids, salt, water, and petroleum vapors. Warranted durability is achieved when paired with compatible 3M films like Controltac Plus Graphic, ensuring long-term performance based on proper substrate preparation and exposure conditions. Available in widths such as 54 inches, it supports professional graphic constructions requiring durable, transparent protection without compromising flexibility.
