TF 700 BF Sublime is a 85m polymeric stabilized vinyl
film coated with a low tack micro structured acrylic
adhesive. TF 700 BF Sublime is designed for Vehicle Wrapping.
The main characteristic of this series is the easiness of
application, thanks an excellent repositionability and the
micro structured adhesive used.
Car wrapping has never been so easy!

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 the car surface 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 (temperature over 500°C).
The film may lift slightly after few weeks.
Removability
Once heated, TF 700 BF Sublime is very easy to remove,
leaving almost no adhesive residue on the car body.
Important remark
The compatibility of paints and lacquers should be tested
by the end-user, prior to use.
