XW Reflective can differentiate embossing plate into two types for embossing license plates 1.One layer license plate. That is only reflective film plus aluminum, and you need to make the painting ( roller coating and hot stamping) after the embossing plates. XW8200 with more than 130% tensile strength, 25N/25MM banding strength, and 1.8-2mm embossing depth, well meet the most market of one layer plates. 2.Two layers of the license plate. For this kind of plates, you don't need to do painting, as there is the basing inking layer upon aluminum, after embossing, you only need to peel off the first layer, normally there is aluminum foil between reflective sheeting and aluminum for easy operation. As for two layers type, different from the XW8200 series, the reflective stickers need to be easily broken for the embossing parts to peel off, such as the fonts and borders, XW6200 works well for that application, for more economic one, you can also choose XW3200, which is with thinner thickness and less reflection. Generally speaking, one layer type is commonly used in most countries.

First number plates in Britain - Many authorities started issuing number plates. A member of the council secured the figure 1 in every series. London was no exception. London was the jurisdiction to use its code up, so by May 1905, The automobile magazine reported that 10 were registered in London. The letters LC came next, but the very first few, LC 1 until LC 29, were kept by the Council for its functions division. The number was LC 30, to a Mr. R.Moffatt Ford. Middlesex was the following to operate out in 1912, as it has been given the two letters MX. In 1920, The Roads Act came into force. Rather than having to re-register if the automobile was sold outside its jurisdiction an automobile could retain a registration number for its lifetime. By 1932, the enrollment system expanded to take care of a further increase in automobiles on the roads. Three letters then 3 numbers were used this time, for example, ABC 123. The 2nd two letters showed which jurisdiction had issued the plates. The format was overturned after World War II, when possessing a vehicle, for the family, was unusual. Motoring for the masses wasn't to arrive till the early 1960 s. A history-. To number plates at Britain - Year letters - their suffix system - A completely new system has been required by 1963, which came in the shape of the year letter suffix. The release of every year letter caused a high demand because of new automobiles on 1 January of every year, creating problems for the engine trade. To minimize the need, the E letter was used for just 6 months, from 1 January to 31 July 1967 and F has been started on 1 August 1967. After which, 1 August became their changeover date for their following 3 decades. Sadly, the rush to purchase a brand new car during that time of year has been also to remain a problem. Growing interest at cherished numbers - From the beginning of their year letter plates, their government had started to restrain some of the better-looking numbers. The A registrations were issued from their number 21 rather than 1 because A1 to A20 were withheld. Throughout the G enrollment year, the range of numbers that were held back was retained to include other desirable numbers like 30, 100 and 111 as well as automobile models, for example, 911. It had been currently that interest at cherished numbers became more widespread.
