Material specifications

Every plate is laser-engraved on matte, non-reflective laminate and ships with 3M VHB adhesive backing: a permanent bond on clean metal, painted and laminate surfaces, with no tools or drilling. Polypropylene case shells, including Pelican™ Protector cases, need an adhesion promoter such as 3M Tape Primer 94 first.
