ABSTRACT:
Sheet assembly useful to form graphically imaged retroreflective markings comprises a base retroreflective sheeting and a film overlying the sheeting. The film is visibly distinctive from the base retroreflective sheeting and is held to the sheeting by a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive. A heat-susceptible low-adhesion layer is interposed between the layer of adhesive and either the sheeting or overlying film. In use of the assembly, graphic symbols are cut in the film, and the background areas of the film manually peeled away. The assembly is then heated, whereupon a firm bond develops at the interface between the non-removed image portions of the film and the base retroreflective sheeting.
