In the cases of vehicles it is best to use a comformable long-term laminate that matches the specifications of the wrap print vinyl used. GF 100 Series laminates are meant for applications where up to one year of durability is needed. GF 100 series laminates are not meant to be stretched or to conform. Will a Calendered laminate like GF 101 work on a Cast print vinyl No. You can apply a cast laminate to a calendered vinyl but you should never put a calendered laminate on a cast vinyl. They must be of a similar construction so that over time they shrink at the same rate to avoid delamination.
