XtraForm Gloss
XtraForm™ is a formable hardcoated polycarbonate film available in 180µ and 250µ thickness with a gloss finish on both sides of the film. Both surfaces of the product are supplied with a protective layer. The print side has a colourless layer, the hardcoat side has a green (Peelmask) layer. After forming to the shape required the product is designed to be UV cured to provide maximum scratch and chemical resistance. The product offers Taber resistance and solvent resistance comparable to conventional non-formable hardcoated polycarbonate. The weatherability performance of the product has been found to conform to the requirements of automotive interior trim specifications.
