Material Overview

High-Performance Air Release is our premium calendered vinyl for customers who want easier installation and greater durability than standard vinyl without stepping up to cast wrap film. Its advanced air-release adhesive technology allows trapped air to escape during installation, helping installers achieve a smoother, more professional finish with fewer bubbles and less effort.

Built on a durable 3.2 mil high-performance calendered film, this material delivers excellent dimensional stability and outdoor performance for up to seven years. The repositionable adhesive provides additional working time during installation while maintaining dependable long-term adhesion after application.

This material is an excellent choice for premium signage, commercial fleet graphics, window graphics, equipment decals, and partial vehicle wraps on flat surfaces and simple curves. While it offers greater conformability than standard calendered vinyl, projects involving deep channels, complex curves, or full vehicle wraps are better suited for our Premium Cast Wrap Vinyl.
