is re-positionable lamination layer available?

[Hugh Potter]

i’ve never been involved with lamination, but i thought it sticks to the vinyl underneath,

maybe you could suggest they use a dry wipe marker on the outside of it ?

Paul how about static cling vinyl on top?

[Dazzel]

Thanks guys, but it really need to be “Sealed”, i think static cling will lift……. also we need to make 000’s of these so it’s more of an headache ! but it’s nice £’s if we can do it 🙂

Hi Paul, it might help if you could give people a little more to go on, how often is the variable data going to be changed? Would it be daily, weekly … and how long would the labels be expected to last, obviously the more the variable data will be changed the quicker the labels will need changed.
Sorry if this is going to complicate things, just thought it might help!!!

if the laminate was slightly larger than the sticker it is to protect and a supply of these were supplied seperately and were appied when the details needed to be changed
Being slightly bigger they would be easier to peel off

how often is the variable data going to be changed? Would it be daily, weekly … ONLY WRITTEN ON ONCE.

and how long would the labels be expected to last, – 12 MONTHS

Thanks guys, headache this one !

Paul, we did something like this a few months ago.

we printed the labels and contour cut them to shape. hundreds of them…
we then cut the exact same in clear vinyl only.
they were all cut (scissors) into stacks of 10, paired up with the clear on a separate sheet.
that’s basically how the customer was given them and they gave them to their site tech guys…
these were stuck onto fridges and had to have some service date and code wrote on using a marker pen. then the clear was stuck onto to prevent the writing be rubbed off with the fridge being continually cleaned. (restaurants, cafes etc)
this works because, like you said, they just need to write on it the once… then peel sticker off the year after, or stick it on top again…

if the details had to be continually changed ide suggest a a little printed then laminated “pocket” . a bit like a tax disc holder but much smaller?

Thanks Rob, will have a go… sounds a good idea. Thanks to all for your help.
happy new year
