Grey-back self-adhesive vinyl blocks out whatever is underneath, so your new campaign goes straight on top of the last one: crisp, vibrant and matt laminated, with no scraping, no wall repairs and no ghost of the old image showing through.
Grey-back vinyl
In retail marketing, every hour counts. Promotions change with every season and festival, and in a busy mall or superstore the last thing you want is a slow, messy change-over.
Grey-back vinyl is a self-adhesive vinyl whose back, the adhesive side, is grey instead of white. That grey layer stops light passing through the film, so any print, colour or text beneath it disappears. You can paste your new poster directly over the old one and it looks as clean as a print on a fresh wall.
We print your artwork on it at high resolution and add a protective matt lamination as standard, so it arrives ready to paste.
White back or grey back
Standard white self-adhesive vinyl is thin, and light passes through it. Paste it over a dark or busy poster and the old image shows through as a ghost, which ruins the look of the new campaign. That is why old prints normally have to be scraped off first.
₹70 per sq ft + GST (laminated)
Our standard self-adhesive vinyl prints: ideal on a clean wall, glass or board. Over an existing print, the old image can show through, so the old print must come off first.
Fresh, clean surfaces
Old graphics may show through
₹80 per sq ft + GST (laminated)
The grey adhesive back masks everything beneath it. Paste directly over the existing print: no peeling, no scraping and no resurfacing of the wall.

Faster change-overs
Stop peeling, start pasting
Removing old posters takes hours, often leaves glue and torn paper behind, and sometimes means repainting the wall before anything new can go up. Grey-back vinyl skips all of that.
No peeling or scraping: the new poster goes straight over the old one, often outside store hours.
Dark colours and busy designs underneath stay hidden, so the new campaign looks crisp and professional.
Less installation time for every seasonal or festival promotion.
A scratch-resistant, water-resistant matt top coat, included in the price, with no glare under store lighting.
Print quality
Ease of installation doesn't mean a compromise on quality. We print on our industrial wide-format Mimaki printers at up to 1,440 dpi, so product photographs, faces and fine text stay sharp even on a large wall graphic.
We use genuine Mimaki eco-solvent or UV inks, never unbranded or duplicate inks, for vibrant, true-to-life colours that resist fading. Read how the different ink types compare.
The media is a monomeric grey-back self-adhesive vinyl of about 100 microns from branded suppliers such as Wyte™ and GCO™. The video shows one of our wide-format printers at work.

Sizes
We print grey-back vinyl from rolls about 4 ft (1.2 m) wide, and a print can run along the length of the roll. So a poster up to 4 ft on its short side is printed in one piece.
Larger graphics are printed in panels up to 4 ft wide and pasted side by side to form one continuous image. Tell us the size of your wall or board and we plan the panels for you.
Most posters and standee-size graphics fit on a single piece.
Panels up to 4 ft wide, aligned edge to edge on site.
Different posters can be laid out together on one print to make up the minimum order.
The same design for every store in a chain, printed in one run.
Applications
Grey-back vinyl is made for places where the graphics change often and the old ones are still on the wall.
Seasonal and festival campaigns pasted over last month's posters.
Offer and price graphics that change every few weeks.
Brand campaigns rolled out across a chain of outlets at once.
Wall and pillar graphics refreshed without repainting.
Venue walls and boards re-branded for each new event.
Out-of-date posters, signs or logos on indoor walls and boards, hidden under a fresh print.
Grey-back vinyl prints are for indoor use. For outdoor walls and vehicles, choose our weather-proof polymeric vinyl or extreme-weather cast vinyl.
Installation
Applying grey-back vinyl is as simple as pasting a sticker. It is pre-gummed with a strong adhesive: peel off the release liner and paste it on. The video shows the wet method on a glass panel; the steps are the same on a wall or board.
1
The old print should be firmly stuck, flat, clean and dry, on a smooth surface. Press down or trim any lifting edges first.
2
Peel the release liner back along the top edge to expose the adhesive.
3
Position the top edge, stick it down and work downwards, peeling the liner as you go.
4
Smooth the print from the centre outwards with a squeegee (rubber roller) to push out air bubbles.
5
For very large prints, spray a light film of water first; the print can be slid into place, then squeegee the water and air out for a flat finish.
6
Press all edges down firmly and prick any remaining bubble with a pin.

FAQs
A self-adhesive vinyl whose adhesive side is grey instead of white. The grey layer blocks light, so whatever is beneath the print, an old poster, dark paint or text, does not show through. We print your artwork on it and laminate it with a matt finish.
