A tint film for application to a target surface, such as a headlight, includes a release liner, an adhesive layer, an at least partially transparent cast layer, and a tint layer. The tint layer is provided as an at least partially light-transparent layer, which may be printed upon the at least partially transparent layer using an ink-jet printing process. In addition, the adhesive layer is configured to have low-tack, so as to facilitate the ease in which the tint film is applied. In some cases, the at least partially transparent layer and the at least partially light-transparent tint layer may be formed together as a composite layer in a casting process.

A sealing element that utilizes cohesive peeling to visually indicate when a sealing element has been opened. The peel layer and bulk layer can be coupled together and contain coloring agents which are complementary colors that together make up a secondary color. Alternatively, the peel layer can be coupled to a first bulk layer and the first bulk layer coupled to a second bulk layer. The colors of the coloring agents applied to the peel layer and first bulk layer together do not make up a secondary color, and the colors of the coloring agents of the second bulk layer and the first bulk layer together do not make up a secondary color.

There is described a label comprising a self supporting sheet of a biopolymer, preferably cellulose (e.g. regenerated cellulose, cellulose acetate and/or PLA) said sheet being substantially transparent to visible light when uncoated characterized in that the sheet comprises: (a) a first coating on at least one surface thereof to aid printability thereon; (b) a second coating comprising an adhesive dispersible in an aqueous medium; and (c) optionally a third coating to modify water permeability through the sheet. The labels are to be applied to articles such as glass containers. Preferred labels are wet glue cellulose labels for example where the first coating also comprises a copolymer of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate to aid water permeability and hence rapid drying of the label on an article.
