Fixing Problems

The film keeps sucking air after turning it over?

Reason: There is not enough Zcratch UV under the protective film. Due to the film’s own surface tension, a negative pressure forms, which is why the film draws air.

Solution:

  • Use more glue
  • Shorter lay-time when turned around
  • After laying and turning back, do not harden directly – wait for 30-60 seconds if bubbles come

If the application has already been done and the adhesive has not hardened. You can lift the protector and refill some Zcratch UV

The film draws heavy grease stains?

Reason: The device, the film and the hands have not been completely cleaned from all adhesive residue.

Solution:

  • Clean the device and the film thoroughly with fresh handkerchiefs and isopropanol
  • Wash your hands with soap several times

When cleaning the film (where the protective film has already been removed) be very careful and work with fresh handkerchiefs!

!DO NOT USE KITCHEN ROLLS!

After some time of use

The film got a lot of scratches?

Solution:

or

  • take a new PMMA film

Buy new PMMA protectors here: film

What's the best and easiest way to remove the film?

Solution:

  • Heat the film briefly with a standard hair dryer
  • Clean with isopropanol after removing the PMMA protector

When the film is heated, the adhesive loses its strength and becomes flexible.

Where can I buy Zcratch UV adhesive, isopropanol and PMMA films separately?
