FAQs
What is the difference between this cling film and actual shrink wrap?
This is a stretch cling film that relies on its elasticity and self-adhesion to secure items. True shrink wrap requires heat to shrink and tighten around an item.
Can I use this to wrap food?
While it's a cling film, it's primarily designed for packaging, shipping, and protection. It is not rated as food-safe, so it's not recommended for direct contact with food.
How do I get the best stretch from the film?
Apply the film with consistent tension while wrapping. The film is designed to stretch significantly, so pull firmly but steadily as you go.
What are the dimensions of the roll?
The rolls are 400mm wide and are available in lengths of 122m or 250m.
What is the thickness of the film?
The film is available in two thicknesses: 17MU and 25MU.
Is this suitable for wrapping a pallet of goods?
Yes, its heavy-duty and stretchable nature makes it ideal for securing pallet loads for transport.
How much does one roll cover?
Coverage depends on how tightly you stretch the film and how much you overlap. A 250m roll provides substantial material for wrapping numerous large items or multiple pallets.
Troubleshooting
Film not sticking well
Ensure the surface of the item being wrapped is clean and dry. Stretch the film more as you apply it. Overlap subsequent layers adequately.
Film tears during application
You may be stretching the film too aggressively or applying it to a sharp edge. Try applying with less tension or add corner protectors to the item being wrapped.
Difficulty unwrapping the film
If the film has been applied very tightly or for a prolonged period, it may be challenging to start. Carefully use a tool to lift an edge and peel away, or cut with scissors if necessary.
Cling reduces over time
This is normal for cling films. Ensure the roll is stored properly in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The iSOUL Clear Shrink Wrap is ready to use straight out of the packaging. Simply slide the roll off its cardboard core and begin wrapping. For best results, ensure the item being wrapped is clean and dry. Apply the film by rotating the item or the roll, overlapping each layer by approximately 30-50% to ensure a secure hold and complete coverage. Stretch the film as you apply it for maximum strength and cling.
Compatibility: This cling film is compatible with a wide range of surfaces, including furniture, boxes, electronics, machinery, pallets, and outdoor equipment. It is designed to cling to itself, not typically to the surface of the item being wrapped, making it safe for most finishes. However, it's always advisable to test on an inconspicuous area first if wrapping delicate or antique surfaces.
Care: Store the roll in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the film. Keep the cardboard core clean and dry. Avoid exposing the film to extreme heat, which could cause it to prematurely lose its cling properties.
