Abstract
An article of manufacture which either appears luminescent or which may be used to make a specular reflective coating appear luminescent comprising a base film of from 0.00025 to 0.375 inches in thickness and an ultraviolet curable film of from 0.00025 to 0.010 inches in thickness is disclosed, as is a method of making said article of manufacture. The material may be provided with an adhesive and a releasable backing strip on the side opposite the ultraviolet curable film and the ultraviolet curable film may include a pigment or a transparent colored ink layer may be included between the ultraviolet curable film and the base film. Alternatively, if the base film is transparent it may be applied through the use of a clear pressure-sensitive adhesive to existing metalized media.
