Applying Aluminum Labels
August 12th, 2014 by Admin
Aluminum labels are great for use in extreme conditions. Aluminum is a soft metal and will bend easily. Bent aluminum labels will retain the shape of the bend an may not lie flat when adhered to a surface. Here are some tips on how to remove aluminum labels from a liner without bending the label.
Here’s a short video that shows you how to remove aluminum labels from a liner without bending the label.
• Make sure hands are clean
• Make sure the surface is clean
• The adhesive is very aggressive so the positioning needs to be exact when applying. Repositioning labels that have already been attached to a surface will bend the aluminum.
• Peel LINER away from labels, do not peel labels “up” from liner. (video) The aluminum is soft and will bend up.
