    Patent number: 5225260
    Abstract: Sheet material (20,20') including a polyvinyl fluoride film (21), an application tape (22) removably adhered to one surface (32) of the film (21) and a carrier tape (23) removably adhered to the application tape (22). The polyvinyl fluoride film (21) has an exposed surface (33) on which a sign (4) is printed in reverse image. Adhesive (42) is applied over the printed surface (33) with a transfer tape (40). When printed film (21) is applied to a selected surface, the film (21) is adhered to the selected surface by adhesive (42) after separation of the carrier tape (23) and application tape (22) so that the printed sign (4) is on the innermost surface (33) of the film (21) and protected by the thickness of the polyvinyl fluoride film (21).
