Convex™ Laminates
• Laminates that are thick and durable
• Laminates that conform to complex curves

We have three recommended laminates for Convex Vinyl.

Convex Laminate is highly flexible and will conform to complex curves.

Pro-Shield Laminate is more durable than Convex Laminate but is less flexible. Convex UV Laminate it the same as Convex Laminate but made for extended UV exposure.
Color: Clear Gloss Color: Clear High Gloss Color: Clear UV Gloss
Applications: Use Convex Laminates when you need to cover complex curves such as helmets. Convex laminates are the softest and easiest for the average person to apply. Applications: Use Pro-Shield Laminates when you need more durable, glossy surfaces. Pro-Shield laminated graphics will conform better with the aid of a heat gun when installing. Applications: Use Convex UV Laminate when you need to protect your print from UV fading and cover complex curves. This laminate will definitely extend the UV life of your graphics.
