• The DFENCEXTRM film is intended for vehicle body protection. It can also serve as a protection system for full wrap films (HX20000, non-structured HX30000 and HX30SCH00) used for smooth and basic full-wraps with a flat surface.

The application of DFENCEXTRM to full wrap films is at the customer's judgement. HEXIS recommend the use of pre-cut DFENCEXTRM film for this particular application. As the adhesion of DFENCEXTRM is permanent, its removal from a full wrap film can damage the latter. HEXIS decline any responsibility in the case of deterioration of a full wrap film caused by the application and removal of DFENCEXTRM.

• Self-healing properties of the film at ambient temperatures: This phenomenon of reabsorbing scratches accelerates especially as the temperature increases.
• Cut the film to the size of the part to be wrapped, allowing +10 cm (4 in.) of extra margin.

The remaining film must be stored on its original core (do not cut the rolls into several lengths or widths, do not repackage the product); the roll must be closed immediately and properly protected (masking tape or roll-collars) after use in order to preserve all its qualities.

•  Apply to a surface that is clean and free from any traces of contaminants (dust, grease, wax, silicone, etc.).

Particular care must be taken to clean the angles and periphery of the target surfaces in order to enable the film to adhere properly to the surface.

• In the case of painted substrates, self-adhesive media must only be applied to undamaged original paintwork. If the paintwork is not original and/or damaged, the application and the removal are at the judgement and risk of the installer.

Aanbevelingen

• Conformable product developed for protecting bodywork parts (underbody, painted front bumpers and rear-view mirror casings) that are particularly exposed to the impact of stones, insects, etc.
• Excellent protection against vandalism (key scratches).
• To facilitate application, HEXIS have several types of squeegees in their range of accessories, ranging from soft to hard (plastic or felt).
• For more information on the application method of DFENCEXTRM, please refer to the Application Guide on the "Professionals" pages, category "Solar and safety films" on our site www.hexis-graphics.com.

• Vertical exposure:
  Up to 10 years (under normal road use conditions).

Applied to a full wrap film with a durability of less than 10 years, DFENCEXTRM will increase the durability against yellowing and cracking of the full wrap film by up to one year (within the limit of the DFENCEXTRM durability).

• Lifespan depends on the type of substrate, its preparation, exposure conditions and nature and frequency of the cleaning.

For instance, it is estimated that a south-facing exposure will divide the durability by two. The same applies to a horizontal exposure. In addition, elevated temperatures (above +50 °C) (+122 °F) or pollution significantly reduce this durability.
