FAQs
How do I remove the film without leaving residue?
To remove, simply lift an edge of the film and peel it slowly away from the glass. As it's static cling, it should come off cleanly without leaving any adhesive residue. If any residue remains, it can usually be wiped away with a damp cloth.
Can this film be reused?
Yes, the d-c-fix static cling window film is designed to be reusable. As long as it is stored carefully (e.g., rolled up with the backing paper or a protective sheet to prevent the cling side from touching), it can be reapplied multiple times.
Does this film completely block the view?
No, this film provides privacy by obscuring direct views through the glass, but it does not block daylight. It allows light to pass through while creating a frosted or patterned effect that obscures what is on the other side.
What is the UV protection level?
The film offers 95% UV protection, which helps to prevent the fading of furniture, carpets, and other interior items that are exposed to direct sunlight.
Can I apply this to a shower screen?
Yes, this film is suitable for shower screens, provided the glass is smooth and clean. Ensure you apply it carefully to avoid trapping water between the film and the glass, and allow it to dry completely.
What size is this specific roll?
This particular d-c-fix Koya window film (model F3345052) measures 900 mm in width and 1500 mm in length.
Can I apply it to a curved surface?
Static cling films are best suited for flat, smooth surfaces. Applying to significantly curved surfaces may result in poor adhesion and visible distortions.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or wrinkles appear after application
Carefully lift the affected edge of the film and re-smooth it with a squeegee, ensuring all air and water are pushed out. If difficult, you may need to remove and reapply the film.
Film is not sticking well
Ensure the glass surface was thoroughly cleaned and sufficiently wet before application. Re-wet the glass and reapply the film. Check that the protective backing paper was fully removed.
Difficulty cutting the film cleanly
Use a sharp, fresh utility knife or craft knife and a metal ruler as a guide for straight cuts. Apply steady pressure.
Film peels at the edges over time
This can happen if applied over rubber seals or if the glass was not perfectly clean. Carefully re-adhere the edge, or for a more permanent fix, consider removing and reapplying, ensuring no contact with seals and a perfectly clean surface.
