Abstract
In one embodiment, the invention relates to an ink-imprinted and reusable multilayer cling film of at least one layer for use in combination with a substrate having a rigid smooth surface comprising a non-vinyl flexible polymer cling film which has two smooth surfaces, is substantially free of added plasticizer and provides a 180.degree. peel force after application to glass of from about 30 to about 2500 gms after aging in a 140.degree. F. oven for 72 hours. In another embodiment, the invention relates to an ink-printed and reusable multilayer cling film of at least two layers which can cling to substrates having a rigid smooth surface without the use of an adhesive material. For example, such multilayer cling film may comprise: (A) a first layer of at least one thermoplastic polymer film having an ink-imprinted upper surface and a smooth lower surface; and (B) a second layer which is a polymeric cling film having an upper surface and a lower surface and comprising at least one non-vinyl thermoplastic elastomer wherein the upper surface of the second layer is in contact with and adhered to the lower surface of the first layer.
