Abstract:
A method of displaying an image using a non-tacky reusable adhesive surface, comprising the steps of:(a) providing a flexible adhesive carrier having first and second major surfaces, each surface being substantially covered by an adhesive, the first adhesive surface engineered to bond the adhesive carrier to a substrate and the non-tacky second adhesive surface engineered to releasably secure an image carrier to the adhesive carrier; (b) bonding the adhesive carrier to a substrate at the first surface; (c) providing a first flexible image carrier having first and second major surfaces, the first surface being imageable and the second surface being adapted to contact the non-tacky releasably securing adhesive surface of the adhesive carrier, wherein the image carrier is not adapted to adhere to the substrate; (d) imaging the first image carrier on the first surface; and (e) removably adhering the first image carrier to the adhesive carrier by contacting the second surface of the first image carrier with the non-tacky second surface of the adhesive carrier, and allowing said first image carrier to reside on said adhesive carrier for a predetermined period of time; wherein the image carrier and the adhesive carrier are substantially coextensive in size.
