Product Details

resto Tapes Textured Protection Film temporarily protects textured and patterned metal surfaces during fabrication, transportation, storage, and installation from damage, dirt, scratches, abrasions, chemicals, paint chipping, and moisture. For metal coils, our metal coil protection film offers comprehensive protection, preventing issues such as scratches and UV exposure during various stages of handling. Both films are designed to ensure that different metal surfaces remain pristine and free from contaminants throughout their lifecycle.

HOW TO APPLY & REMOVE PROTECTIVE FILM

Applying the Film

First, clean any dirt, grease, oil, or other contaminants that could interfere with adhesion.

Manual Application: Ideal for small quantity applications. Unroll the film and carefully position it over the metal surface. Then, using a squeegee or roller, apply pressure to the film to ensure excellent adesion and smooth away air bubbles. Finally, trim away excess film.

Automated Application: Ideal for high-volume applications and production, which can drastically increase speed, accuracy, and efficiency. Automated Applications include film unwinders, tensioners, edge sealers, and application rollers.

Removing the Film

Supplies Needed: Gloves, microfiber cloths, a plastic scraper or lifting tool. Avoid harsh chemicals or brushes that could harm the texture or finish.
Position the Metal Surface: Lay the metal flat or secure it vertically to prevent movement.
Loosen a Starting Edge: Use a scraper to lift a corner of the film.
Remove Film: Peel the film slowly and tightly back on itself at a 180° angle. Take note of grooves and texture patterns to carefully lift around these areas.
Final Wipe and Dry: Clean and dry the surface thoroughly to prepare for final use.
