Film vs Paint

‘Durable graphic film technology from the rail experts’

When it comes time for a new rolling stock livery, companies now specify graphic film instead of paint. Halo Rail has championed the technological advances in graphic film technology, working with partners like 3M™.We recommend 3M™ Scotchprint™ Rail Graphics for rail applications, because 3M provide proven materials with full technical back-up and the strongest warranty.
