Professional Backlit Film for Light-Box Displays

Kodak Glossy Solvent Polyester Backlit Film is a 280g, 8mil polyester roll built for front-print light-box graphics. The glossy surface and whiteness greater than 92 CEI give vivid colour saturation and strong light transmission. It suits print shops, photographers and businesses producing durable backlit signage.

Replaces Standard Poster Paper for Illuminated Signs

Ordinary paper blocks light and fades quickly behind a light source. This film transmits brightness evenly and resists fading with solvent, low-solvent and UV-curable inks. The upgrade is worth it when displays must stay luminous and colour-accurate for extended indoor or window installations.

Limits of Solvent-Ink Polyester Media

The roll measures 50 inches wide by 100 feet long, so the printer must accept that width and roll diameter. Polyester cannot be folded sharply without creasing, and it requires solvent-compatible ink sets; aqueous or latex inks will not adhere. Outdoor use without lamination will reduce lifespan.

Questions about this item

Will this 50in wide roll fit my printer's roll holder?

The roll is 50 inches wide; verify your large-format printer's maximum media width and core diameter before loading.

How do I load this 8mil polyester film without it bunching or misfeeding?

Use the printer's rear or top feed path, set the media type to heavyweight polyester, and allow the roll to unwind freely so the stiff 8mil film tracks straight.

How often should I replace the roll when printing backlit displays with solvent inks?

One 100ft roll yields multiple prints depending on graphic length; replace when the remaining footage is too short for the next job or if edge curl appears.
