Retroreflection
Definition
The typical coefficient of retroreflection defined is measured at a -4 entrance angle and a 0.2 observation
angle. It is expressed in candlepower per foot-candle per square foot (candela/lux/square meter) per ASTM
E810.
The entrance angle is formed by a light beam striking the surface at a point and a line that is perpendicular to
the surface at the same point.
An observation angle is formed by the light beam striking the reflective surface and returning to the observer.
From 800 feet (249 meters), a motorist normally views a graphic at a 0.2 angle.
Thickness With adhesive: 7–8 mil (0.18–0.20 mm)

Factors that Affect Graphic Performance Life
The actual performance life of a graphic is affected by:
• the combinations of graphics materials used.
• complete ink drying or curing.
• selection, condition and preparation of the substrate.
• surface texture.
• application methods.
• angle and direction of sun exposure.
• environmental conditions.
• cleaning or maintenance methods.
Graphics Manufacturing
! CAUTION
Before using any equipment, always read the manufacturer’s instructions for safe operation.
Product Bulletin 5100/IJ5100 Revision F 5
3M Graphic Film Controltac ™ ™ 3M Reflective Graphic Film Scotchlite ™ ™
Inkjet Printing
Always read and follow the ink manufacturer’s written instructions on usage.
Total Ink Coverage
• 250% is the maximum recommended total ink coverage for this film for all solvent, latex and UV inks.
Do not exceed the recommended total ink coverage for the ink series used on this product. Having too high a total physical ink amount on the
product results in media characteristic changes, incomplete drying, overlaminate lifting, and/or poor graphic performance. For additional details
about total ink coverage, refer to the 3M Product and Instruction Bulletin for 3M inks or the 3M Performance Guarantee Matrix for OEM inks.
i IMPORTANT NOTE
Be sure to check the consistency of color on reflective film as it may appear different in daytime and nighttime lighting.
Completely Dry Graphics
i IMPORTANT NOTE
Incomplete drying can result in graphic failure including curling, increased shrinkage and adhesion failure, which are not covered under
any 3M Graphic Warranty.
See the ink’s 3M Product and Instruction Bulletin for more details.
Screen Printing
Formulations and processing conditions can affect ink durability. Refer to the Product and Instruction Bulletins for your ink for limitations and
proper usage.
• Solvent ink series 1900 and some colors in the UV ink series 9800 are opaque. Be aware that opaque ink can prevent the film from
retroreflecting in the screen printed areas. Solvent inks series 2900 and the transparent colors from UV ink series 9800 are good choices
when retroreflection is important in the screen printed areas.
• For graphics subjected to fuel vapors or occasional spills, use Solvent ink series 2900 and clear 1920DR.
• Oven dry the last color and the clear when using solvent-based inks on graphics needed for any corrugated application.
Cutting
See 3M Instruction Bulletin 4.1 for Sheeting, Scoring and Film Cutting details.
Graphic Protection
Graphic protection may improve the appearance, performance and durability of the graphic. Click on the graphic protection options listed in the
“Recommended Compatible Products” on page 1 or see the 3M Graphics Market Product Catalog, for more information.
Application Tapes
There are two types of application tapes. See 3M Instruction Bulletin AT-1 to determine what application tape is recommended for your film or
finished graphic.
Premasking Tape
Increases stiffness during application while preventing stretching and damage. Use when little or no liner is exposed. See 3M Instruction Bulletin
4.3 for complete details.
Prespacing Tape
Holds cut and weeded letters or graphics in place during application and after removing the film liner, while preventing stretching and damage.
Use when large amounts of liner are exposed. See 3M Instruction Bulletin 4.3 for complete details.
