Vinyl for stainless steel suggestions

CreatedDesigns

I am looking for a durable vinyl for use on stainless steel tanks that will be washed down every day. I have looked into the Ritrama brand but was wondering what else might be out there.

Tanks are inside in temp controlled area and washed with hot water around 145 degrees and a mild cleaner foam.

I am going to try some Oracal 751 to test for a starting point. The vinyl thats on them now is shrinking and curling.

thanks in advance

3m makes a white printable vinyl for stainless steel 181-10. It sounded like you were looking for cut vinyl though. I would use 3m 180C in colors if you didn't want to print. We used to do gas tankers and old vinyl is tough to remove from stainless steel. The passenger side gets beat up from the fill hoses banging into the graphics.

Thanks for the suggestions. I will try and do some testing and post what I find out because I'm sure I'm not the only one dealing with food manufacturing companies.
