3M HIGH-GLOSS SEW-ON REFLECTIVE VINYL VEST TRIM - 3M 6160R and 6187R high-gloss vinyl reflective trims are ANSI approved for use on traffic and roadworker safety vests, and the narrow widths are ideal for pet collars and leashes. They enhance the visibility of the wearer at night or in low-light conditions when illuminated by vehicle headlights. Fluorescent yellow is especially conspicuous in fog and on cloudy days as are common in the Pacific Northwest. 3M micropsimatic vinyl trims reflect especially well even when wet from precipitation. They consist of highly retro-reflective microprisms formed on a flexible, glossy, UV-stabilized polymeric film. A flexible vinyl film seals the front and back of the material, encapsulates the microprisms, and protects the reflective surface from dirt and moisture penetration. They also maintain their reflectivity through repeated launderings and are supple, durable, and are easily wiped clean of oil, coal dust, dirt and grime. 3M microprismatic vinyl reflective tapes maintain reflectivity even after 75 wash cycles at 140°F. Much more reflective, supple, and cold-temperature resistant than imports. This is an excellent reflective tape for dog vests.
