Best of Both Worlds: Ease of Handing with Improved Quality
The unique handling properties of our 3M™ Die-Cuttable Tape DC2008S2 enable minimal edge-welding, which helps improve the die cutting process — even with intricate letters. With the trend toward narrow width letters and individual lettered badges, our tape excels for this purpose because of its high twist resistance. When using our tape, there is a reduced chance for missing letters. The black color of the tape is inconspicuous so that is doesn't distract from the appearance of the vehicle.
