Stone Surface Protective Film Removal Protocol
Proper removal techniques ensure stone surfaces remain undamaged while completely eliminating protective film residues. Follow these steps carefully for optimal results.
1
Surface Preparation
- Thoroughly clean dust and debris using a soft brush or microfiber cloth
- Use a plastic scraper to gently lift film edges (avoid metal tools)
- For stubborn adhesion: Apply warm towel (50-60°C) for 2-3 minutes
- Ensure work area has adequate lighting for visibility
CAUTION: Never use sharp metal tools directly on stone surfaces as they may cause permanent scratches.
2
Corner Peeling Technique
- Begin at least 5cm from any edge for better grip
- Lift corner at 15-30° angle using fingernail or plastic card
- If resistance exceeds 2kg force, reapply heat and wait
- For difficult corners: Alternate between heating and gentle lifting
- Maintain consistent pulling direction parallel to stone surface
3
Full Surface Removal
- Pull steadily at 45° angle (optimal removal angle)
- Maintain speed of 5-10cm per second
- For large surfaces: Work in 30cm sections
- Use plastic scraper as wedge for stubborn areas
- Inspect removed film for complete detachment
If film tears during removal, immediately stop pulling and use heat application to soften remaining adhesive.
4
Adhesive Residue Treatment
- Apply neutral pH cleaner with microfiber cloth
- Let solution sit for 1-2 minutes before gentle wiping
- For persistent residue: Use specialized adhesive remover
- Final polish with clean, damp cloth
- Inspect surface under angled light for complete cleanliness
Following this systematic approach ensures safe removal of protective films while preserving the stone's integrity and surface finish. Always test methods in inconspicuous areas first when working with sensitive materials.
