[rolanduser]

Hello everyone
I need one help...
I printed reverse on clear vinyl with lamination on normal white vinyl (not blocked out one). After that I put vinyl application on 8 mm clear ACRYLIC. Its perfect now.
I went to the site and install on the wall with double side clear tape. After one day, its sticky glue has spreading and show the air bubbles on the attached image.
Do you know any suggestions overcome this problems. Please help me..
I don' know if change the double side tape or experienced guys please let me know....

Not familiar with spicers that you mention...I am not concerned with the white laminate adhesive as much as the adhesive of the clear.
In my experience...I had some "water-based" adhesive that had this same issue.
I would check specs on the adhesive that is on the clear.
Make sure that it is a solvent permanent adhesive or acrylic permanent.
The film I had issue's with and realized was not good, I could rub the adhesive off the clear with thumb pressure easily.
Once I went back to acrylic permanent I did not have this issue. Not sure if this viable but I personally noticed a difference.

Hi! The surface from behind has to be absolutely flat (i would never use adhesives for that size anyway) and you have to wait as much you can after sticking the vynil to acrylic to glue to any place. No less than 24h. If you still want to use double side tape to do that, screw an ACM/dibond panel to the wall first, but never do it directly to a wall.

can you try instead, after printing direct second surface to the acrylic, apply a cast vinyl barrier film or a medium gray cast vinyl to act as a blockout layer, then apply a few pieces of clear VHB tape, to mount on the wall,

The weight of the acrylic is probably too much for the two sided tape to not pull the vinyl loose. Can you do standoffs to mount them instead?

After we mount a clear print onto acrylic 2nd surface, we back it with 3M electrocut white vinyl, then another layer of IJ35C. It prevents the adhesive from migrating into your clear vinyl print. Airbubbles? Was the acrylic sagging? depending on the overall size of your acrylic piece 8mm might be too heavy for tape alone. Typically, if it's a large thick piece we will use silicone, small pieces of VHB will hold it up until the silicone sets.

What was the overall dimension? 8mm seems pretty hefty for the display, maybe could have used 1/8"...
