Temporary Protection film can be invaluable during building and restoration work

No building or site remains the same forever, and it may be that construction or restoration work is required, potentially putting nearby windows at risk of scratching or dirt.

It is with the aim of shielding such glass from harm that you may order the Temporary Protection film of the Opalux brand, with this solution also a good form of protection when panels of glass need to be handled, transported and installed.

What makes this window film such a wise investment?

The Temporary Protection film that we can provide here at Stockfilms is a special kind of window film, consisting of thin polyester with a low tac and an easy peel. This enables the film to be cleanly removed with no glue residue. It is also a clear film, which means vision through the glass is not compromised during the building or restoration work.

The film of this nature that we supply is Opalux’s TPWF-40CL Clear Temporary Protection Film, which is a self wound polyethylene film with an acrylic adhesive. All in all, it is an ideal solution for the protection of delicate glass surfaces against dirt and damage.

Bear the following in mind when using this product

As useful as our Temporary Protection film can be, there are also various important caveats about its use. The film must be stored at a temperature of less than 40°c and in the original packaging. It must also be used within six months after the date of receipt, with its period of exposure to light and air not exceeding six weeks.

A good application is also only achievable when the surface is free from fat, oils, solvents, dust and/or other extraneous substances. It is also vital to avoid excessive tension and the formation of folds or bubbles in the film, which should only be applied in temperatures of between 10°c and 40°c.

This highly specialised form of window film can be purchased in rolls measuring 1200mm (47”) wide by 100m long. However, you are advised to always contact the Stockfilms team first to discuss with us which film is best suited to the needs of your given application.
