APPLYING AN OVERLAMINATE _________________________________________________________________
An over-laminate, such as Seal Print Shield
pressure-sensitive adhesive with a release liner, can be applied to
your mounted prints, photographs or images on photographic papers.
•
Use a sled to support unmounted prints during the laminating procedure. To create a sled, coat a board with
Seal Print Mount
adhesive and leave the release liner on. Sleds can be reused until the surface is marked
enough to transfer blemishes through the laminated print. Otherwise, recoat the board if it is still in good
functional condition.
•
Use leader boards the same thickness as the sleds/boards.
•
Place unmounted prints to be laminated face up on the sled as the sled passes through the rollers.
•
For over-laminating mounted prints, follow the same procedures, eliminating the use of a sled.
PROCEDURE
*
IMPORTANT:
Before beginning, first adjust the four shim wheels to correspond to the thickness of the
board
you will use.
•
Load a roll of pressure-sensitive over-laminating film onto the top unwind shaft.
•
Set the brake to apply a slight drag, but not tight enough to stretch or otherwise pull the film.
•
Apply either double stick tape or a strip of the pressure-sensitive mounting adhesive film across the width of an
empty film core mounted on the front wind-up tube.
•
Pull the over-laminate down from the top unwind shaft, under the top idler and up to the front wind-up tube. Pull
the release liner square with the roll of film so that no diagonal wrinkles are apparent. Adhere the top release
liner smoothly to the adhesive on the core.
•
Separate the over-laminate from the release liner secured to the take-up core, and pull the over-laminate down
evenly so that it rests (adhesive side up) over the face of the top roller.
HINT:
Adhere one end of scotch tape securely to a corner of the film on the wind-up tube. Pull the other end of
the scotch tape down and the film will separate from the release liner.
•
Using the foot switch, feed a leader board into the nip, making sure the film stays adhered to the leader board.
•
Wind up any excess release liner by hand onto the wind-up tube. Set the brake to apply the minimum amount of
tension needed to separate the release liner from the film.
•
Check that the film and the release liner are tracking correctly with no diagonal wrinkles in either.
•
After laminating, insert a leader after the last sled so the laminate will adhere properly to the last image.
•
Trim, mount and display your newly laminated images.

IMPORTANT:
When applying films with plastic liners, do not stop while laminating, as a release separation line
will appear in the finished lamination. This line may fade over time but initially will be visible, especially on dark
materials.
