FAQs

How do I clean the d-c-fix film?

Wipe the film with a regular household cleaner and a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrub brushes.

Can I use this film on a textured surface?

The film works best on smooth, flat surfaces. Textured surfaces may affect adhesion.

Is the film waterproof?

The film is water-resistant. Wipe up any spills immediately to prevent water damage. Use sealant around sinks and hobs.

How do I remove the film?

Use a hairdryer to soften the adhesive. Gently peel off the film. Use warm soapy water to remove any remaining adhesive residue.

Can I cut the film with scissors?

While you can use scissors, it's recommended to use a sharp blade and a straight edge for precise cuts, using the grid on the backing paper as a guide.

Is the film suitable for outdoor use?

No, the film is designed for indoor use only.

Can I put hot items directly on the film?

The film is heat-resistant up to 75°C. Avoid placing hot pans or items directly on the surface. Use a worktop saver.

Troubleshooting

Air bubbles under the film.

Lift the film and reapply, smoothing out the bubbles with a smoother or soft cloth. Alternatively, use a pin to prick the bubble and smooth it down.

Film not sticking properly.

Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Make sure you are using enough pressure during application.

Film is peeling at the edges.

Use a hairdryer to soften the adhesive and press the edges firmly onto the surface. Apply sealant to the edges.

Difficulty removing the backing paper.

Carefully peel the backing paper from a corner, ensuring the film doesn't stick to itself. If necessary, use a sharp blade to separate the backing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is clean, smooth, and dry. Remove any dust, grease, or debris.
  2. Cutting: Use the grid on the backing paper as a cutting guide. Measure and cut the film to the desired size, leaving a slight overlap.
  3. Application: Slowly remove the backing paper, and smooth the film onto the surface, working from one side to the other to eliminate air bubbles. Use a d-c-fix smoother for best results. Spraying water on glass and appliances can help with the application.
  4. Finishing: Trim any excess film with a sharp blade.
  5. Curved Surfaces: A hairdryer can be used on curved surfaces to make the vinyl more pliable.
