D-C-Fix Sticky Back Plastic - Matt Light Grey

No, this product is specifically designed for smooth, non-porous surfaces to ensure proper adhesion and a smooth finish. Textured surfaces will prevent the film from sticking evenly and may result in an undesirable appearance.

Simply wipe the surface with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild, non-abrasive household cleaner. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals, which can damage the film.

The film can withstand normal room temperatures but is not designed for direct exposure to high heat (e.g., hot pots directly placed on it or areas immediately adjacent to stove burners without protection). We recommend using heat-resistant mats or trivets for hot items. > Info needed: Specific temperature resistance limits.

Yes, D-C-Fix films are generally removable. For easier removal and to minimize adhesive residue, gently warm the film with a hairdryer on a low setting before peeling it off slowly. Results may vary depending on the surface and how long the film has been applied.

You will need a measuring tape, scissors or a utility knife (with a fresh blade), and a squeegee or a soft cloth to smooth out bubbles. A ruler or straight edge can also be helpful for precise cuts.

The film is designed to be stable. However, extreme temperature fluctuations could potentially cause slight expansion or contraction. Applying it in a consistent room temperature environment helps maintain its integrity. Avoid overstretching during application.

If you order multiple metres, your D-C-Fix film will be supplied as a single continuous piece, up to a maximum of 15 metres, eliminating the need for multiple joints on larger projects.

Carefully peel back the affected section of the film and reapply slowly, smoothing with a squeegee or soft cloth from the center outwards. For small bubbles, you can prick them with a fine needle and gently press the air out.

Ensure the surface is completely clean, dry, and smooth before application. Any dust, grease, or unevenness can prevent proper adhesion. Repositioning too many times can also reduce stickiness. Use gentle pressure and ensure no air is trapped.

Utilize the grid lines printed on the backing paper as a guide. For precise cuts, use a sharp utility knife or craft knife and a ruler or straight edge on a protected surface.

If noticed immediately, gently peel back the misaligned section and reposition. The adhesive allows for some repositioning during initial application, but repeated attempts will reduce stickiness. Take your time during initial placement.

Ensure all edges were firmly pressed down during application. For stubborn lifting, a small amount of contact adhesive or super glue can be used sparingly on the underside of the lifted edge, but this will make future removal more difficult. Also, ensure the surface is not exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations that cause expansion/contraction.
