What is the main difference between the Wet Lamination and the Dry Lamination methods?
• The Wet Lamination system: The adhesive is applied, then laminated before curing. It uses the newest “cure through” technology foil for crisper, cleaner lines and better gloss, brightness, and reflectance as it is cured through the film leaving a smoother surface. • The Dry Lamination system: This method depends on partially curing the adhesive, getting it tacky for a window of time, and then laminating and stripping the foil during this tacky period. Since this process uses cationic adhesives, a special press cleaning regimen is required. This method is only recommended when a customers application or web is not capable of running Wet Lamination.
