Curing Periods
Window Tint
Window Films can take anywhere from 1 day, up to 4 weeks, to completely cure. This can be due to the type of film and atmospheric temperature/ humidity/ conditions.
During this curing period, application solutions will go through some settling and evaporation processes. Films can sometimes appear hazy/bubbly/cloudy. It is a natural part of the curing process. It is important not to touch the films during curing periods. Some small variations in the materials can also clear up over time. Minor imperfections are unavoidable, however, do not have an impact on the performance of the products. If there is anything you are unsure of after this period, please feel free to contact us so we can help with any queries.
Interior Vinyl Wraps
The adhesive on architectural vinyl keeps building its bond over the first few days after installation, and edges and wrapped corners are the last areas to fully settle. During that time, avoid scrubbing the new surface, picking at edges or resting very hot items against wrapped panels. Marks from handling usually wipe off with a damp microfibre cloth once the wrap has settled.
Benchtop & Stone Protection Film
Clear protection film on benchtops, vanities and stone can look slightly hazy or show small water pockets for the first few days while the application solution dries out. How long depends on the film, the surface and the weather. Keep the surface dry where you can, and avoid harsh cleaning products, dragging heavy objects across it and putting hot pans down on it. Most minor haze clears on its own as the film settles.
Inspections
Window Tint
Inspections are not generally required for Window Tint, however, if you’d like us to have a look at the tint after 3-4 weeks (to allow the curing process to take place), then we would be happy to have a look for you. It’s also nice to see our customers again!
