Anyone use Fellers Back Label Cast to wrap with?

I have a box truck wrap coming up and the price on Fellers Black Label looks pretty decent for cast.
I noticed it has a clear adhesive which seemed strange to me for a printed wrap vinyl.
Any opinions?

No. But have used the Arlon SLX and it is great. Using the General Formulations AutoMark 830 and like it just as well. 830 is a great wrap vinyl, very conformable and easy to use. It is a cold stretch, so no need to heat it when you need to stretch it to conform. But for a box truck OraCal 3551 Rapid Air from Fellers would be a good choice - excellent for flat surfaces. Does have a higher initial tack, so not quite as easy to handle.

I have had several reps tell me that all the Briteline products sold by Grimco are made by General Formulations.
I've had 3-4 of them tell me that the briteline printable autowrap is Arlon SLX. I've never used general formulations. Do they have a low initial tack cast wrap?

It comes in the same exact boxes as GF stuff (just with the different brand printed on it), the batch/core labels are exactly the same as GF and I've had few times when bulk briteline orders dropped shipped from GF facility. Most of briteline is GF no doubt

Grimco didn't even bother to change the model numbers on most of them, GF207 and IM3207 are basically the same product. If you compare GF's catalog with Grimco you will find over half the products share part or all of the same model #

We wrapped a truck the other day using their cast kit. Overall it was pretty nice stuff. I liked the adhesive and air travel. Overall white point was good. Slidable for a few seconds, but definitely a higher initial tack. I do not like the clear adhesive as you can anything of contrasting colors under it if it's a light print. Worth the $200 savings between print media and lam? Maybe..

We got the kit to try out. Our HP Latex 360 did not like it had to babysit to keep it from buckling going through the drying area (turned heat down as far as we could and still dry the ink). We got to the last 3rd or so of the roll and found it had been spliced/frankenstiened together so weird. Seemed to install ok but boy we made a lot of trash. Lam seems good. We won't be buying it again.
