General Information
ORALITE® 5921M Prismatic Fleet Marking Grade and ORALITE® 5421 Commercial Fleet Marking Grade (for the rest of
this document referred to just as 5921M and 5421) are tough, weather and solvent resistant products designed for
graphics applications on vehicles. It is easy to apply to smooth painted or unpainted surfaces. For more information,
please reference the Technical Product Bulletin, which is available from local ORAFOL offices. Read carefully through
the full application instructions before commencing the application process.
1. Maximum service life
The service life specified in the technical data sheets is the maximum service life achieved only for vertical outdoor
exposure under normal central European environmental conditions.
The following table provides an overview of the expected reduction in m
aximum service life under deviating
environmental conditions and orientations. It is divided into three climate zones. Applications with a deviation from the
vertical level of more than 10° are considered horizontal applications.
The assessment of the maximum service life is based on the information in the technical data sheet of each series.
Climate zone 1) (C1): temperate
(e.g. North/Central Europe / North US)
Vertical:
data in the technical data sheet
Horizontal:
C1) vertical minus 50%
Climate zone 2) (C2): humid / warm
(e.g. Europe – Mediterranean region, Southeast US, Oceania)
Vertical:
C1) vertical minus 2 years
Horizontal:
C1) horizontal minus 1 year
Climate zone 3) (C3): dry / hot
(Middle East/North Africa, desert regions in AUS, Southwest US)
Vertical:
C1) vertical minus 4 years
Horizontal:

Note:
The information about the maximum expected service life does not constitute a legally binding guarantee, warranty or
other claim. The information provided is based on practical experience from artificial and natural weathering tests under
normal conditions. It cannot simply be transferred to the maximum expected service life for every vehicle given the wide
variety of possible influences (e.g. additional mechanical and chemical impacts).
2. Storage and Transportation
ORALITE® reflective films should be stored in a cool, dry indoor area that is protected from direct sunlight.
Recommended temperature for storage is 20° C and a relative air humidity of 50%.
Rolled material should be stored in the original carton. The rolls have standard spacers (core plugs) tha
t prevent contact
between the roll surface and the carton and thus the formation of pressure marks and surface damage. Please make
sure that partly processed rolls are stored tightly and never without spacers (core plugs). Kit material should not be
stored face to face. It is recommended to store cut kit material with siliconised slip-sheets in between for protection and
to avoid material face to face contact, either folded inwardly or outwardly particularly when stacked and stored.

Before Application
STEP 1: Templating
5921M and 5421 are vinyl based reflective films and as such, will conform more easily to curves (surfaces bending in two
directions). However, its use should be limited to minor curves o
nly. Complex curves can be avoided by templating
smaller pieces that will be butt jointed (and not overlapped onto one another) giving the appearance of one single piece.
STEP 2: Cutting
Manual Cutting
The material can be easily cut with a sharp knife or a rotary trimmer. When using a knife, hold the knife at an angle of 45
degrees from the surface. This leaves the tape with a slightly recessed edge, which prevents lifting of the edge during
mechanical or power washing. Cutting on the vehicle is not recommended.
Plotter Cutting
In general less pressure is needed when cutting 5921M abd 5421 in comparison with other open cell structure livery
films. Below are suggestions of parameters to be used with selected equipment.
Equipment
5421 / 5921M
Zünd 1600XL
Pressure – 450 grams (cutting
through liner)
Gerber P2C 1600
Pressure – 360 grams, 2 passes
(not cutting through liner)
The above equipments and settings are suggestions based on ORAFOL’s laboratory tests and field use; th
ere are a
number of satisfactory plotters on the market that are not listed among our recommendations. The user should test the
chosen equipment for the best parameters to be used.
Edge Sealing After Cutting
This is not necessary after cutting, as the film is not an open cell structure material.
Tape Corners
It is recommended that where possible square edges and chevron tips be rounded to give improved cosmetics and to
minimise the risk of corners being lifted by mechanical and power washers. Minimum recommended radius is 5 mm.
Application to corners / edges
The material should not be applied around corners or edges (e.g. door edge, wheel arch etc). Instead it should be cut
back 6 mm (1/4”) in front of the edge.

STEP 3: Substrate Preparation
The user is responsible for determining whether the ORAFOL product is fit for a particular purpose and suitable for the
user’s application. Users are urged to carefully evaluate substrates for material adhesion and compatibility. Listed
below are guidelines for selected substrates. Material failures caused by the substrate or improper surface
preparations are not the responsibility of ORAFOL.
Two-component Polyurethane Paints
Two-component polyurethane paints must be cured before applying 5921M and 5421. If the paint is not properly cured,
outgassing will cause bubbles to form under the applied material and the adhesive will not adhere adequately. ORAFOL
recommends testing for outgassing prior to applying ORAFOL sheeting. For drying times, paint manufacturers’ guidelines
are to be followed in all instances. While most paints are usually touch-dry within a few hours, dependent upon the
primer, paint mixture and thickness, proper curing m
