  • Part Number 7879FL
  • 3M ID 7100013031

Topcoat provides the advantages of matte coating combined with a surface that is smooth enough for thermal transfer printing.

3M™ High Performance Acrylic Adhesive 350 permanently bonds to high surface energy (HSE) and low surface energy (LSE) plastics, textured and contoured surfaces, powder coatings, and slightly oily metals.

Polyester liner contributes to improved die cutting by allowing for deeper die cuts than paper without the added concern of exposing paper fibers.
