service related FAQ’s
Protectapeel is primarily supplied in 15-kilo containers. For larger projects, IBCs are also available.
Yes, Protectapeel can be applied to a range of non-porous surfaces, including flooring, sanitary basins, countertops, windows, frames, and doors. Before project handover, it can be easily removed by hand peeling, revealing clean, undamaged surfaces without delays or additional costs. Before application, you must always apply the Protectapeel product to a small test area to test the substrate’s suitability. You must ensure that all substrates are well covered. Allow the product to dry for 48 hours, and then check that the Protectapeel product will peel away from each substrate.
Yes, Protectapeel can be applied to non-porous door and window frames to protect from damage caused by scratching, plaster, or weather exposure. Before full application, you must always apply the Protectapeel product to a small test area to test the substrate’s suitability. You must ensure that all substrates are well covered. Allow the product to dry for 48 hours, and then check that the Protectapeel product will peel away from each substrate.
The recommended application thickness for each Protectapeel product is detailed in the Technical Data Sheet. Applying the minimum thickness is essential for effective protection and easy removal.
Protectapeel offers significant advantages over traditional protective films and boards by drastically reducing labour during application and removal. Unlike films that can lose adhesion or boards that shift out of place, Protectapeel adheres securely to surfaces, ensuring consistent protection for up to 12 months.
Additionally, Protectapeel’s effective barrier minimises cleaning costs by shielding surfaces from dirt, dust, and debris. These combined benefits make it a far more cost-effective and reliable solution for construction projects.
