Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I dry apply GF 255?
Yes, however wet applying GF 255 is the prefered method. Wet application on solvent based clear products is the best way to achieve bubble free and optically clear results. Dry applying is possilbe, but may result in some bubbles and/or reduction in optical clarity.

Can I use GF 255 on perforated vinyl since it is optically clear?
No. While GF 255 is optically clear, it is formulated with a removable adhesive and is not designed for conformable applications. GF 255 will not bond well to the perforated film and can create blurry air pockets in the perforations that will block the film’s one-way vision.

If I dont have a soft edged, Teflon coated, or wet edged squeegee can I use a regular squeege?
No. We do not recommend this. GF 255 is a clear calendared vinyl, and as such it will have a tendency to show squeegee marks. Regular squeegees may have burrs or uneven edges which may make impressions in the vinyl. Sometimes you “may” be able to heat these impressions out (depending on their severity), but we do not recommend heating the film on a cold glass surface, as cracking may occur. It is best to use a softer edge. You can also use a premask tape to protect the graphic during installation.
