3M™ Protective Laminate

Provides a durable barrier against UV fading, dirt, stains, and most graffiti. Keep your signs looking clean and well-maintained by making them easier to clean and resistant to damage. Only our 3M™ Diamond Grade Prismatic reflective product offers a 3M overlaminate option. All other products have the option to use an anti-graffiti liquid laminate coating that offers similar benefits without the physical adhesive laminate.

Both options are:
  • Conformable to handle complex shapes and curves including rivets and corrugations
  • Non-PVC solution
