December 10, 2013 By Digital Print Media Editor

Looking to take on a project that incorporates window graphics? Window graphics media can range from frosted polymeric PVC films for an etched glass look to perforated vinyl that can be applied to windows on vehicles. Cut vinyl graphics can be used as an architectural design element and transform an entire interior or exterior environment. See different examples of large format window graphics below.

Perforated Media – Available in various ranges of visibility, this type of media can yield excellent image quality. When applied to vehicle windows, it is common to use media with at least a 50% open area for maximum visibility.
