Oracal 631 Exhibition Cal

Oracal 631 vinyl is a popular vinyl type that you will come across a lot. What makes it so popular is that it’s great for cutting and was designed specifically for drywall. This vinyl adhesive is removable and water-based, so it can be peeled right off and not leave anything behind. Keep in mind, it’s only removable for up to 2 years when used indoors. After this time, the adhesive becomes permanent and will require an adhesive remover to clean up the remaining residue. Oracal 631 vinyl is best for temporary indoor applications, where you want to remove the vinyl later on. The materials that you don’t want to use Oracal 631 is on anything that will get wet. This vinyl has a matte finish to suppress reflection and comes in 89 vivid colors and in transparent. Suitable for use on plotter cutting systems.

Oracal 751C High Performance Cast

Oracal 751 is a permanent adhesive and is considered a cast vinyl instead of a calendared vinyl. Cast vinyl is manufactured through a pouring process instead of a stretching process. This results in a vinyl that is much more thinner and flexible, making it better for curved surfaces, such as mugs or vehicles. It’s a little more expensive than calendared film, but the price is made up in quality when it’s needed. Oracal 751 is ideal for decorations that require higher durability and conformity. It’s especially great on vehicle and fleet graphics. Suitable for use on plotter cutting systems.

ApplicationsLettering, marking and decoration with high requirements for durability and conformability; high-quality vehicle and fleet graphics
