A coating of repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive is provided to substantially all of the second face of the polyester substrate. The polyester substrate is adhered to the plastic container by contacting the second face of the polyester substrate and the coating of repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive with the exterior surface of the plastic container.
