† Substrate durability is based on manufacturer specifications and is not an implied warranty. Performance and durability of placard substrates will depend on a number of factors including (but not limited to) substrate selection and preparation, compliance with recommended application procedures, placard placement, geographic area, exposure conditions, atmospheric conditions (e.g. fog, snow, rain), surface deposits (e.g. dirt, dew, frost), maintenance and age.
