Lamination & Finish Options
Customize the appearance and protection of your printed ORALITE 5650RA reflective graphics with Printara's available finishing options. The selected laminate influences the final surface appearance and may affect reflective performance.
- Gloss: A high-shine finish that enhances printed color depth and provides a smooth, glossy surface.
- Satin: A smooth, low-sheen finish that provides softer surface reflections while maintaining rich printed colors.
- Matte: A non-gloss finish that minimizes surface glare and creates a more subdued appearance.
- Avery Gloss Clear Sparkle: A specialty gloss finish featuring a subtle sparkle effect that adds visual interest to custom printed graphics.
- Gloss Plus Protection Film: An enhanced protection option with a glossy finish, designed to provide additional surface protection for printed graphics.
- Satin Plus Protection Film: An enhanced protection option with a smooth satin appearance, combining reduced surface glare with additional protection.
Important: Lamination can influence retroreflectivity, viewing angles, and finished-graphic performance. ORAFOL identifies specific ORAGUARD overlaminates for compatible constructions, including series 290, 290GF, 293, and 279. Printara's selectable finishes are not automatically equivalent to these manufacturer-approved combinations. Confirm compatibility when required reflective performance or warranty coverage is important.
Installation & Surface Preparation
ORALITE 5650RA is designed for professional reflective graphics applied to compatible flat and moderately curved surfaces. Proper preparation and installation help maintain adhesion, appearance, and reflective performance.
- Install on clean, dry, and compatible surfaces free of dirt, grease, wax, and other contaminants.
- Use dry installation techniques in accordance with ORAFOL's current application instructions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is ORALITE 5650RA reflective vinyl used for?
ORALITE 5650RA is designed for reflective commercial fleet graphics, transit vehicle markings, emergency vehicle graphics, reflective lettering, and long-term outdoor signage. Its retroreflective construction helps graphics become more noticeable when illuminated by directed light.
Can ORALITE 5650RA be used for vehicle wraps?
Yes, for approved partial vehicle graphics and fleet applications. ORALITE 5650RA is suitable for flat and moderately curved surfaces, making it useful for reflective logos, lettering, markings, and selected vehicle panels. It is not intended as a universal full-vehicle-wrap material for complex curves or deep recesses.
How long does ORALITE 5650RA last outdoors?
ORAFOL lists up to 7 years of outdoor durability for unprinted film and up to 6 years for qualifying printed and laminated graphics under specified conditions. Actual service life depends on printing, lamination, installation, exposure, and maintenance. These ratings do not guarantee identical durability for every finished graphic construction.
Does ORALITE 5650RA glow in the dark?
No. ORALITE 5650RA is retroreflective, not glow-in-the-dark or self-illuminating. Its embedded glass-bead technology reflects light back toward its source when illuminated by headlights, flashlights, or other directed light. The reflective appearance depends on lighting conditions, viewing angles, printed graphics, and finishing materials.

How to set up your print file
How to set up your print file
File size and artwork dimensions
- Maximum file size: 1 GB.
- Artwork width: Make your artwork at least 0.5″ narrower than the media you select. For example, artwork printed on 60″ media should be no wider than 59.5″.
- Artwork size: Set up your file at the size you want it printed whenever possible. Smaller-scale files are accepted too. If you send a smaller file, tell us the final print size and scale in your order comments.
- Raster image resolution: Make sure your image has enough resolution for its final print size. Enlarging a low-resolution image can make it look blurry or pixelated.
Color
For standard artwork: We recommend sending RGB artwork with the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 color profile embedded. This gives our print software a consistent reference when converting colors for the selected printer and material.
For artwork using Printara Colors: Use the LAB values shown for the color. In Illustrator, create a LAB-defined spot-color swatch and keep it as a spot color in your vector file and production PDF. Preserving the spot-color definition is the preferred way to carry the Printara color target into production.
Prepare your artwork
- Images: Use an image resolution that suits the final print size. Low-resolution images may look blurry or pixelated.
- Fonts and placed images: In vector files, convert fonts to outlines, curves, or paths. Embed any images placed in your file.
- Artboard: Crop the artboard closely around your full design. Any blank space inside the artboard may be included in the printed output.
Accepted file types
We accept PDF, PSD/PSB, TIFF, JPEG, PNG, AI, EPS, and SVG files. To preserve Printara LAB spot colors, submit vector artwork or a PDF with spot colors retained. For raster artwork, submit a Lab-mode PSD, PSB, or TIFF.
Before you submit
Please send files that are ready to print. If your file is smaller than the intended print size, include the final size and scale in your order comments.
Printara may decline files that do not meet these guidelines. We do not review or correct every submitted file, so please check your artwork before sending it.

How to set up contour cut lines
How to set up contour cut lines
- File should be supplied in AI, EPS, SVG, or PDF format with vector contour lines.
-
IMPORTANT: Contour lines must be assigned as a Spot Color named 'CutContour'.
To assign a spot color using Adobe Illustrator:
- Open the Swatches Palette. If the Swatches Palette is not readily visible, you may need to open it by selecting Swatches from the Windows menu.
- Click the 3 horizontal lines in the upper right corner of the Palette, and select New Swatch. This opens the New Swatch dialog.
- Enter CutContour as the name of the new swatch. This needs to be spelled exactly as shown here.
- Select Spot Color from the Color Type drop-down menu, and use the slider bars to create a color. The color is not important since it will not be printed.
- Click OK to close the dialogs.
- Select your cut paths and assign your new swatch color to those paths.
Note: You may use any vector-based drawing program you want. These instructions are specific to Adobe Illustrator. Most drawing programs will follow a similar process. If you have trouble, see the Help Files in your drawing program.
- Contour lines and print image must be supplied in the same file.
- Contour files must be at least 2" less than width of print media.
- Opacity of CutContour lines MUST be at 100%.
- DO NOT hide the CutContour layer or turn off the option to print.
Taking these steps allows us to seamlessly assign your CutContour lines. If followed correctly, the CutContour lines will NOT print. Failure to follow guidelines may result in delayed processing time.
PNG file types with transparent backgrounds are acceptable, but not recommended. Please be aware that PNG files work in a RGB colorspace, and WILL be converted to CMYK when sent to print. We are not responsible for any inaccuracy or color shift that occurs as a result of the conversion.
How square footage is calculated

How Print Square Footage Is Calculated
Our products are priced by the amount of print media required to produce your project. Because your artwork is printed from a roll, the square footage used may be different from the finished square footage of your graphic.
Square Footage Is Based on the Media Used
Your print is produced from a fixed-width roll of media. This means your order is calculated using the amount of media required to produce the print — not just the finished area of the graphic itself.
36″ × 72″ Graphic Example
A 36″ wide graphic is produced on 48″ wide media. Even though the finished graphic is only 36″ wide, the full 48″ width of media is used for the 72″ print length.
Graphic
Projects That Require Panels
If your project is too wide to print in one piece, the calculator can divide it into overlapping panels.
Panels include a fixed 1″ overlap. The calculator determines the media width, orientation, number of panels, and total material required.
Already Know Your Square Footage?
Use the Square Footage tab instead of entering finished dimensions.
Enter the square footage you need and select the desired media width. The calculator will show the approximate length of material that square footage represents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my calculated square footage larger than my graphic?
Do I need to select the correct media width myself?
Can my artwork be rotated to use less material?
How much smaller should my artwork be than the media?
What happens if my artwork cannot fit on one piece of media?
No Manual Math Required
Enter your finished dimensions on the product page and the calculator will determine the media required for your print.
