Overview
3M Print Wrap Film IJ280 (Controltac with Comply v4) is 3M's newest premium wrap film. 3M says it is up to 20% faster to install, proven to lift 2x less, conforms with less heat, and removes cleanly with heat at end of life. It is a 2 mil cast, luster white film rated up to 10 years and backed by the 3M MCS Warranty when used as a matched system.
IJ280 handles flat, riveted, corrugated, simple and compound curves, concave surfaces and deep channels, which makes it ideal for fleet, transit and full vehicle wraps as well as watercraft. The Comply v4 air-release pattern is designed for maximum airflow and a smooth finish.
3M pairs IJ280 with 3M 8428G gloss overlaminate. We do not stock 3M laminates here, so request 8428G with your order. If you already run IJ180Cv3, IJ280 is the upgrade path when faster installs and lifting resistance on deep channels matter.

Printer compatibility
The HP Latex 570 is a 64" roll-to-roll printer, so this 54" roll loads normally. The manufacturer lists latex inks as compatible; use the film maker's HP Latex media profile (or the closest HP generic preset for this film type), let prints fully cure, and run a test panel before production.
