FAQs

How do I remove d-c-fix Sticky Back Plastic?

Use a hairdryer to soften the adhesive, then gently peel it off. Any remaining residue can be removed with warm, soapy water.

Can I use d-c-fix on a textured surface?

It is recommended to apply d-c-fix on clean, smooth surfaces. Textured surfaces may affect adhesion.

Is d-c-fix heat resistant?

Yes, it is heat resistant up to 75°C. However, avoid placing hot pans directly on the surface.

Can I cut the d-c-fix with scissors?

Yes, you can use scissors, but for more precise cuts, a craft knife and a straight edge are recommended.

Is the adhesive permanent?

No, the adhesive is designed to be repositionable and removable, making it suitable for temporary applications.

What kind of cleaner should I use?

Use a regular household cleaner to wipe the surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the film.

Can d-c-fix be used on walls?

Yes, but ensure the wall surface is smooth, clean, and primed to provide a good surface for adhesion. Consider that the product might damage the wall paint when removed.

Troubleshooting

Air bubbles appear during application.

Peel back the film and smooth it again, using a smoother to push out air bubbles. For larger bubbles, use a pin to release the air and smooth it down.

The film is not sticking properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, smooth, and dry. Apply the film slowly, smoothing it as you go. Use a hairdryer to soften the adhesive if needed.

Difficult to cut the film accurately.

Use the grid on the backing paper for precise cutting. Use a sharp craft knife and a straight edge.

Film is damaged during application.

If the damage is small, trim the damaged part. For larger damage, peel back the film and reapply a new section or the entire sheet.
