How to Prevent Window Film Edge Lifting?
Updated today

Peeling, curling, or edge lifting of window film is uncommon but can occur due to factors such as:

  • Cold temperatures during installation

  • Excessive use of slip solution

  • Dot matrix or frit edge coating

  • Over-tensioned film roll direction

  • A potential film defect

To prevent edge lifting, follow these steps:

1. Press firmly with a hard card: After the final squeegee, run a hard card along the film's edge to improve adhesion.

2. Thoroughly dry the film edges: Use a towel to remove any excess mounting solution from the edges.

3. Recheck and reinforce: Allow the film to settle for a few minutes, then reapply pressure with the hard card. If needed, use a heat gun to secure the bond further.
