Solvent and chemical resistance
Resistant to most oils and grease, fuel, aliphatic solvents,
weak acids, salts and alkalis.
PROCESSING
Clean and degrease the substrate
All surfaces to which the material will be applied must be
thoroughly cleaned from dust, grease or any
contamination. Use soapy water to remove the dust and
degrease with isopropylic alcohol.
Application
on flat or slightly curved surfaces
Apply TF 700 BF Sublime with the dry application
method.
on convex areas
Heat the film with a heat gun before conforming it over
the convex area.
on corrugated or concave areas
If the film is stretched into a corrugation it may pop-out
after a few weeks.
It is, therefore, recommended to cut the film and to
apply it in the corrugation without tension.
on rivets
Apply the film over the rivet with high pressure and
heat it with a heat gun (air temperature over 500°C).
The film may lift slightly after few weeks.
Application on boat
We recommend edge sealing.
Removability
Once heated, TF 700 BF Sublime is very easy to remove,
leaving almost no adhesive residue on car body.
Some adhesive residue may be expected on gel coat after
film removal. Eventual adhesive residues can be removed
with isopropylic alcohol.
Removability is warranted only on original manufacturer
coating.
Important remark
Compatibility with paints and lacquers should be tested by
the end-user, prior to use.
