ABSTRACT:
A dry transfer decal is formed when a lithographic image is printed onto a transparent UV-dipped base sheet. Additionally, the decal includes opaque layers, a removable adhesive, and a release liner with a backing sheet. The lithographic decal provides an art-quality image, in a large format, which has vivid colors and precise graphic detail. The opaque background layers increase the brightness of the image colors and covers over any underlying logos when affixed to a display surface. The UV absorbing base layer reduces the strength of UV rays reaching the transfer image thus the decal resists fading even after prolonged exposure to sunlight. The base layer also prevents abrasion and scratching which is prone to occur in active environments.
