    Campbell's Soup Company wanted to add promotional
punch to the labels on Spaghetti-Os cans.  The idea:  peel-
off stickers of dinosaurs and superheroes inside the labels.
Craig's solution:  3991PLV water based repositionable glue on
stickers and a water based release coat on the label. 
     Results:  50 million kids got some cool stickers for their
collections, and Campbell's got an even cooler jump in sales.

     The Craigbond 3991 series is a water based repositionable
product line that allows a label or glue flap to be removed or
opened and later re-attached or closed while producing no fiber
tear. The material is a high tech water based formula designed for easy application via flexographic,
screen, or extrusion devices that yields a non-desctructive bond on a variety of substrates.

     The system most commonly employed uses Craigstick 3991PLV and Craigcoat
6960CLR
water based release overprint varnish.  In combination, the two formulations
create an imaginative format for a variety of marketable and desirable applications for
removable/repositionable wallpaper borders, labeling and promotional opportunities,
stamps, point of purchase, shelf markers, fun stickers, games, and contests.

     Importantly, both formulations used afford superior mileage, excellent adhesion/
release, wide operating windows, easy cleanup, and value added performance.  Several
viscosities are available for flexo, silk screen, and extrusion applications.
