Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the difference between Gilt Athena Grey and standard grey PVC film?
Gilt Athena Grey features a gilt metallic sheen layer over a grey base, producing a gold shimmer and metallic texture under light for a light luxury visual effect. Standard grey PVC film has a matte or glossy grey finish without metallic effects. Gilt Athena Grey is suitable for light luxury and modern decorative applications.

Q2: How is the film applied?
For flat substrates, use hot-press lamination: apply adhesive to the substrate, cover with PVC film, and apply heat and pressure in a hot-press machine. For contoured substrates (such as door and window profiles), use wrapping: apply hot-melt adhesive to the substrate, feed substrate and film through a wrapping machine, and set with heat.

Q3: Is the gilt effect durable?
The gilt sheen layer is integrally formed with the PVC film substrate, not surface-sprayed. Under normal use and cleaning conditions, the gilt effect remains long-term. Avoid abrasive cleaners or hard brushes that may damage the sheen layer.

Q4: Can the product be used outdoors?
This product is designed for interior use. Prolonged outdoor exposure to sunlight and rain may cause PVC film aging and gilt sheen degradation. For outdoor applications, select outdoor-grade PVC film products.

Q5: Is the film surface scratch resistant?
The surface has moderate hardness, resisting daily wiping, soft cloth cleaning, and light abrasion. The gilt sheen layer is sensitive to deep scratches. Avoid steel wool pads or hard brushes for cleaning. Avoid scratching with sharp objects.

Q6: How is the product cleaned and maintained?
Routine cleaning uses a damp cloth to remove dust and stains. For stubborn stains, use a neutral cleaner with a soft cloth. Avoid strong acids, strong alkalis, abrasive cleaners, or organic solvents.

Precautions

• Ensure substrates are flat, dry, free of grease, and free of dust. Wood substrates must have moisture content ≤ 12%
• Storage requirements: Store rolls upright in a dry, cool environment away from direct sunlight and high temperatures (＞40°C). Stack height not exceeding 3 rolls
• Acclimatize material in the installation environment for 24 hours before application
• Hot-press lamination conditions: Temperature 120°C-160°C, pressure 3-5kg/cm², dwell time 30-60 seconds (adjust based on equipment and adhesive)
• Wrapping conditions: Hot-melt adhesive temperature 180°C-220°C; Wrapping speed 5-15m/min (adjust based on equipment)
• Avoid washing or solvent exposure for 24 hours after application to allow full adhesive curing
• Inspect color and sheen consistency across multiple batches before large-scale use
• Dispose of waste materials according to local environmental regulations; Do not incinerate
• Handle carefully during transport to avoid heavy pressure and scratches from sharp objects; Apply protective film when the gilt side faces outward
