3M™ Corp. (St. Paul, MN) is presenting its Scotchcal™ IJ36-20 changeable-graphic film, which features an adhesive technology that offers enhanced removability and pliability amidst colder temperatures. The film applies easily and removes with no heat (or less heat than standard media in colder conditions, the company reports), and is solvent- and UV-ink printable. IJ36-20 reportedly provides an optimized print surface with reliable image quality and a lay-flat liner that enables reliable print and finishing production. 3M recommends the media for short-term bus graphics, as well as POP projects where a removable adhesive is preferred.
