This
material is
Vinyl COATED,
not laminated Vinyl.
There is a difference
Laminated vinyl is made by "sandwiching" a polyester substrate
between two layers of vinyl and rolling it together with heat and
pressure to bond this "sandwich" together. Under ideal conditions this
bond is adequate to keep the material from peeling apart or "delaminating" as the industry calls it. Over time and with usage in
extreme conditions this bond may begin to fail. (dramatically in some
cases).
Coated Vinyl is made basically by running the polyester
substrate through a vat of molten vinyl, cooling it slightly and then
rolling it through steel rollers to give it an even texture and
thickness. This coating process bonds the vinyl to the polyester core on
a microscopic level, much more fully than laminating; creating a
superior bond and a monolithic (one piece) composite.
