Etched Glass Sparkle Matt

Both the ambient and the substrate temperature must comply with the minimum temperature. In a cold environment, the transfer tape should be left on longer before its removal as several days are necessary to complete the final adhesion of the film.

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

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

Clean with soapy water only.

• To facilitate application, HEXIS have several types of squeegees in its range of accessories, ranging from softer to harder (plastic or felt).
• The film or paper transfer tape allows you to press the squeegee firmly over the entire surface of the graphic to be transferred.
• In the case of an already painted substrate, 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

• For a window glass application, due to a variety of light exposures and conditions, especially when applied with a backlight, it is recommended to perform a preliminary test before each type of application.
• Heat cold surfaces before application to avoid condensation between the substrate and the self-adhesive film.
• The colour of the films is controlled by HEXIS in order to ensure faithful reproduction of their colour tints. Nevertheless, in the case that your project requires the use of several rolls of the same colour reference, HEXIS recommend using only a single batch number of each reference.
• For more information on the application method of the KG15DEPM film, please refer to its Application Guide available under the "Professionals" heading, in the "Plotter vinyls” category on our website www.hexis-graphics.com.

• The pigmentation (colour) of the PVC affects the stability duration of the dyes. These stabilities are confirmed by UV ageing tests performed on the KG15DEPM film and by natural weathering; the durations given are the periods during which the surface finish is expected to be free from any gradual reduction or modification.
• Southern exposure with a 45° inclination may divide the durability of the film by 2, compared to the values indicated in the tables below.
  
  

• These results were obtained from a vertical outdoor exposure and the indicated conditions of durability are inherent to this position up to a few degrees. Other positions accentuate climatic influences and an alteration in gloss or colour, or even a slight dusting may appear (outdoors).
