The "Pics" suffix shifts the product from a generic textile to an imaging substrate. This means the nylon is surface-treated or calendered (flattened under heat and pressure) to accept pictorial media. Whether it is for photographic backing, large-format printer canvas, or industrial X-ray film transport, "Pics" indicates a matte or semi-gloss finish optimized for dot gain and color depth.
Standard nylon yellows after 500 hours of UV exposure (equivalent to 2 years of indoor light). Version 62 incorporates a new hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) that pushes yellowing resistance to 2,000+ hours. For photographers and archivists, this is the difference between a print lasting 5 years or 20 years. germannylonpics 62 better
Because Version 62 maintains a perfectly flat 62-micron thickness, light diffusion is mathematically uniform. When placed on an LED backlight panel (color temp 6500K), the material produces zero hot spots, unlike the uneven 59–65 micron variance of cheaper films. The "Pics" suffix shifts the product from a
