What Make’s Kool Tack Better?

Now 100% Reversible

Why use Kool Tack?

  • Drymount in 15 to 20 seconds. 6 times faster than other drymount foam board.
  • Drymount at a lower temperature. Makes it safe for most types of inks and photographs. The lower temperature also extends the life of the press while lowering operating costs.
  • Kool Tack foam board has more foam per square foot. Makes it smoother and more resistant to dents, and the “orange peel” effect.
  • Kool Tack can be used over and over again. Substantially reducing scrap and costs.
  • Kool Tack is non “Tacky”. The adhesive eliminates the dirt and dust sticking to the surface.
  • Kool Tack has a smoother adhesive surface; which produces a smoother drymount.
  • Kool Tack adhesive is ph neutral and has passed all industry lab tests.
  • ATG tape adheres to the Kool Tack adhesive surface. Also, can be marked on using a pencil or pen.
  • Every sheet of Kool Tack is 100% inspected before being packed.
  • Millions of sheets have been produced to complete satisfaction of the customers.
