In daily life and work, we often encounter situations where we need to protect certain items or surfaces, and we need to use masking protective films. Masking protective film is a kind of film that can be attached to the surface of objects to protect, dustproof, waterproof, scratch-proof, etc. So, how to use the masking protective film correctly?The following is a detailed introduction to the use of masking protective film.
1.Clean the surface to be attached.
Before using the masking protective film, first make sure that the surface to be applied is clean. You can use a damp cloth or alcohol cotton ball to gently wipe the surface to remove dust, oil and other impurities. If there are stubborn stains on the surface, you can use a detergent to clean it, but be careful not to use a strong acid or alkaline detergent to avoid damaging the surface.
2.Measure the size.
Before applying the masking protective film, you need to measure the size of the surface to be applied, and then select the appropriate masking protective film according to the measurement results. If the surface to be applied is irregularly dimensioned, a custom masking protective film can be selected to ensure a perfect fit.
3.Peel off the masking protective film.
Remove the masking film from the package, find one end, and peel off slowly. Be careful not to use too much force when peeling, so as not to damage the protective film. At the same time, the speed of peeling should be moderate, too fast may cause the adhesive layer of the masking film to separate from the liner, and too slow may cause the adhesive layer of the masking film to stick together.
4.Apply a masking protective film.
Attach the peeled masking film to the surface to be applied, starting at one end and slowly working your way through the other. During the application process, a scraper or hard card can be used to ensure that the masking protective film is completely attached to the surface and free of bubbles and wrinkles.
5.Exclude bubbles and wrinkles.
If you find air bubbles and wrinkles after applying the masking protective film, you can use a scraper or a hard card to scrape from the middle to both sides to expel the air bubbles and wrinkles. If the bubble is large, the bubble can be punctured with a needle and the gas can be squeezed out.
6.Check the adhesion effect.
After removing air bubbles and wrinkles, it is necessary to check the adhesion effect of the masking protective film. The adhesion of the masking protective film to the surface can be observed from different angles to ensure that there are no missed sticks and misalignments. If there is a problem, it can be adjusted in time.
7.Save the remaining masking protective film.
After using the masking film, you need to store the remaining masking film. The masking protective film can be rolled up and taped to secure both ends to prevent sticking. At the same time, store the shielding film in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight and high temperature and humidity.
The above is how to use the masking protective film, I hope it will be helpful to you.
