In response to industry demand for a true cast vehicle wrapping film, Mactac Distributor Products has enhanced its legacy IMAGin B-free GRUV bubble-free digital media with the launch of IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast.
Designed with today’s installer in mind, the new and improved IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast (GVC929BFD) replaces Mactac’s long-time customer favorite IMAGin B-free GRUV (GV929BFD). It features an upgraded cast facestock and adhesive platform – delivering the conformability and repositionability installers need for faster, more confident full or partial vehicle, fleet and marine wrapping applications.
“IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast was developed with today’s graphics installers in mind,” said Jason Yard, marketing director, Mactac Distributor Products. “The advanced features and characteristics offered by this cast film – such as its superior repositionability – give installers the confidence to wrap vehicles and other contoured surfaces faster than traditional calendered film options.”
IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast features Mactac’s proprietary omni-directional air-egress invisible adhesive pattern, which eliminates visible texture in the facestock for easier installation.
The facestock is a 2.0-mil high-gloss, soft white polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film that offers exceptional color reproduction. It is coated with an opaque gray acrylic permanent adhesive that bonds strongly – yet remains repositionable – and is protected by a 98# polycoated layflat liner for superior printability.
While ideal for vehicle, fleet and marine applications, IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast offers the perfect solution for numerous long-term or conformable applications, such as:
• Bus decals
• Floors
• High-performance outdoor signage
• Walls and windows
IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast is compatible with all digital ink types and is solvent, eco-solvent, latex and UV-printable.
Mactac recommends pairing IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast with its PERMACOLOR RAYZorTM matte or gloss overlaminate. When paired with an overlaminate, IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast offers outdoor durability of up to seven years. Unprinted durability is nine years. Additionally, IMAGin B-free GRUV Cast is backed by Mactac’s trusted Open-Image Warranty.
