<p>A linerless pressure sensitive adhesive label comprising a substrate, a pressure sensitive adhesive layer coated onto at least a prtion of one side of the substrate, and a continuous protective layer of polyethylene or amide wax substantially overcoating the pressure sensitive adhesive, thereby masking the tackiness of the substrate. Also included is a method of making a linerless pressure sensitive adhesive label comprising the steps of applying a pressure sensitive adhesive to one side of a substrate, and applying a continuous polyethylene or amide wax protective layer substantilly over the pressure sensitive adhesive, thereby masking the tackiness of the substrate. Also disclosed is a method of using the linerless pressure sensitive adhesive label comprising the steps of at least partially removing the protective layer to thereby expose the pressure sensitive adhesive and subsequent affixing the label to a surface.</p> |
