Note After printing, ensure the ink is thoroughly dry before applying laminate. Surfaces for material application must be clean, free from dust, grease, and any contaminants that could affect adhesion. Freshly lacquered or painted surfaces should dry for at least three weeks to fully cure. Compatibility of selected lacquers and paints should be tested by the user prior to application.
