A lettering tape is formed having an integrated layered configuration in which a base layer, an ink layer, and an adhesive layer exhibiting adhesive properties when heated are sequentially stacked. When the lettering tape is selectively heated by a thermal head to form an image thereon, the heated portion of the ink layer onto which an image has been formed is adhered to the heated portion of the adhesive layer and simultaneously, the heated portion of the adhesive layer exhibits self-adhesive properties, thereby enabling transfer to the target transfer body.

The present invention provides a vehicle mirror and a manufacturing method therefor which allow the rear face side of a mirror element to be dark-colored without using a color plate or color coating. A mirror element is configured by forming a semitransparent reflective film made of a dielectric multilayer film on the front face of a flat transparent substrate. A dark-colored self-adhesive film is attached to the rear face of the mirror element. The dark-colored self-adhesive film is configured by forming an adhesive layer on the rear face of a dark-colored film layer by means of application. Grid-like air release channels are formed at fine pitches with minimal depth on an entire surface of the adhesive layer. After the dark-colored self-adhesive film is attached to the rear face of the mirror element, the grid-like air release channels visible from a front side of the mirror element are eliminated by heating and/or pressurizing.

A thermally-sealable multilayer film, for packages which may be resealed after opening, includes an outer layer and a support layer, with a thermally-sealable layer on the side facing the packaged material. A self-adhesive layer made from pressure sensitive adhesive is provided between the support layer and the outer layer. The support layer has weakening lines, which define an opening for the removal of packaged material. For resealing a container, by using the thermally-sealable multilayer film, the user may simply open the defined opening for removal of the contents of the container, by application of an opening force and then reseal the container, by pressing the opened outer layer on to the self-adhesive layer. The above process may be repeated several times, until all the contents of the container are used, whereby the above are protected from possible contamination.
