Repair of plastic window frames

If a window profile is damaged, a professional should be called, as only they can ensure the proper application of the Continental repair film. As a first step, the damaged laminated film is removed, leaving the smoothest possible surface. The area to be covered must therefore be thoroughly cleaned and free from dust or other contaminants. The repair film can then be cut to the size of the profile to be covered and applied. It features a highly adhesive backing designed to create a strong, long-lasting bond with smooth and clean substrate profiles. For easier application, the film can be preheated using a hot air gun and then carefully applied to the surface using a squeegee. To avoid air inclusions, the applied film should always be pressed down from the inside outward, i.e., toward the edge of the film.
