If you want to use Avery films stay with the A9 series and look for the "EZ" symbol. Do not attempt to use their A4 or A6 line on your ride, you'll be sorry. What ever you do, do not use Avery's over laminate. Use 3M's, because Avery's lam has a tendency to end up silvering. What that means is that some areas will look cloudy and others nice an glossy. I stopped using Avery for this reason.
Interesting...seems like 3M is the way to go if you want to go right...but its very pricy. I wonder if the series 85 in europe cost the same as the ij380 v3 that we've been talking about. what would you second choice be if you didn't have to use 3m?
