3M™ Durable Label Material FM01972 is a durable, high performance material that offers excellent thermal stability. This polyester label product utilizes 3M™ Adhesive R3500, which is designed for use on smooth surfaces such as glass, metal and plastic (including polystyrene) and offers excellent UV resistance, good initial tack, and long term adhesion with clean removability and is an excellent alternative to static cling. Note: As a removable adhesive, performance may vary depending upon the substrate to which it is applied. Therefore, extensive testing should be conducted prior to use and textured surfaces should be avoided. Not appropriate for children’s toy or sticker applications.
