Reflective Adhesive Vinyls are high reflective materials for night time advertising. Without their own power source, reflective adhesive vinyls bounce off the street or automotive lights for high visibility advertising. Durable and economical not requiring a power source, reflective adhesive vinyls are great options for economical day and night advertising.
Selection of colours
Reflective vinyls can look different in day and night if the colors are not selected appropriately. For example reflective night time white can look greyish in the day time and daytime black can turn to a dark brown when viewed with reflective light in the night time. This involves a choice of colors that reflect and maintain your brand integrity and communicate your product or service features as intended.

Reflectivity
Adhesive reflective vinyl materials are of primarily two types-retroreflective and prismatic. Retroreflective adhesive vinyls comprise of reflective glass beads mixed with the pigment of the upper film. The glass beads provide the reflective property of retroreflective adhesive vinyl.
Prismatic reflective adhesive vinyls actually have small prisms on their surface resulting in wider reflective angles. Therefore prismatic reflective adhesive vinyls can be viewed from wider angles, making them useful for road signs and other safety signalling.
Reflectivity is the amount of light reflected by the film. It is calculated after measuring the reflected candle power measured at various angles. Reflective adhesive vinyl data sheets give reflectivity information of that particular material. Newyorkbanners.com can provide detailed information on which reflective material is right for your needs.
Cutting & Application
Reflective adhesive vinyls tend to be harder to cut when compared with traditional non reflective vinyls. Retroreflective and prismatic reflective adhesive vinyls have reflective materials blended in making them particularly hard to cut. Cutting could require specialized hardened cutters-normal cutters could require extra force and wear out quickly when used on reflective adhesive vinyls.
Reflective adhesive vinyls are also more brittle requiring special consideration of surface contours on which they would be applied. Newyorkbanners.com will guide through the baby steps of working with reflective adhesive vinyls.
Removal
When reflective adhesive vinyls are removed without the proper precautions, some residual substance could be left on the surface on which the reflective adhesive vinyls were held. This can be particularly damaging when reflective vinyls applied to cars and other automobiles are removed-improper removal could result in expensive automotive paintwork. Newyorkbanners.com offers professional inputs on reflective adhesive vinyl removal so that your ad surface retains its original form for normal use.
Reflective adhesive vinyls are an economical alternative to powered night time advertising. When designed, printed and applied professionally, reflective adhesive vinyls present unique advertising, traffic management and night time messaging options.
