    Posted by AndrewReid on 23 January 2013 at 11:56

    I was wondering what the best material for using on the inside of a window.

    Looking for something that is transparent, fully printable and/or cut out as well as being high-tack.

    Used clear static cling but it is a nightmare if you cut out letters and doesn’t really work well being printed on.

    Can normal Hexis cast wrap be used on the inside of the window if cut out reversed?

    Thanks.[/b]

    I hadn’t really thought about that. I was just wondering if there was a specific material that does the job.

    some static cling white but the ink has to be really dry and not on the glass fro prolonged periods as the ink tends to etch itself into the glass.
    You can print as usual on white gloss and cover with a film from neshen, this gives hi tack one way and low the other.

    you could also try a white media which you can print on the sticky side. Quite expensive compared to reverse print on clear + white laminate (almost everyone do this way) but reduces the pain the make such thing.

    As others have already said but note Some laminates ie MD5 are printable so you buy one roll of gloss white with clear matching laminate for your normal work and you can use it the other way around ie print on clear laminate and back out in the digital white for your interior glass applications 😀
