Adhesive Foil

Deco - E

Are d-c-fix® foils fire retardant or fire resistant?

No. In the event of a fire our foils will burn just like other PVC products.

Can clear lacquer be sprayed onto the d-c-fix® foil to give it a matt appearance?

In principle, this is possible. However, it is important to take into account whether the lacquer is resistant to plasticisers and which solvents are in the lacquer. (Ethanol/isopropanol/water/benzene are suitable solvents)

Can d-c-fix® adhesive foils be removed without residue from varnished pieces of furniture or wooden doors?

There is a risk of small residues, which is why you should test it beforehand on some inconspicuous area.

Can d-c-fix® adhesive foils be stuck to the floor?

No, adhesive foils are not floor coverings or intended for traffic. The foil scratches and is destroyed.

Can d-c-fix® adhesive foils be wiped and cleaned with alcohol-based disinfectants?

The use of alcohol-based disinfectants should be avoided. There is a risk of the print colour fading or blurring slightly.

Can I also use d-c-fix® foil in wet/damp rooms?

Of course. If water often gets onto the edges of the foil (e.g. on a wash basin), you should seal them with silicone or cold-welding liquid.

Can I apply d-c-fix® foil to round edges too?

Of course. To do so, heat up the foil using a hair dryer on its lowest setting and pull it around the edges in the desired shape and press down. When the foil is warm it is easy to pull it around corners and edges. However, be careful not to overstretch the foil.

Can I clean d-c-fix® adhesive foils?

Yes, d-c-fix® foils can be cleaned with any commercially available cleaning products. The best option is warm water with a little dishwashing liquid. Wet patches can be rubbed dry with a soft cloth.

Can I obtain a catalog of d-c-fix® decorative foils?

You can download and save all the d-c-fix® catalogs from our downloads area. Please note that colors may differ from the original ones.

Can you apply an additional d-c-fix® adhesive foil to an existing one, e.g. on a door?

This is generally possible. However, the surface should be as smooth as possible (e.g. no chequer plate foil) and free of dust and grease

If the bottom layer is a PP or PE foil (polyolefin), for example, the adhesion will no longer be as strong as on other surfaces.

If the foil is applied to an existing PVC foil, it will no longer be easy to remove at a later date because the foils form a strong bond.

Do d-c-fix® adhesive foils stick to chipboard or MDF panels?

In principle, the foil should adhere. However, it also depends on the condition of the surface. It is important that this is free of dust, grease and dirt. Sand down edges or uneven surfaces a little – it is best to vacuum afterwards and wipe them with a wet cloth, then allow to dry. Place the foil on the surface in one sweep and press it firmly down using a scraper or cloth.

How can adhesive residues be removed from the surface?

Option 1:
Spray the adhesive residues with clean water and let soak for a few minutes. The adhesive swells and can be scraped off with a spatula / scraper.

Option 2:
Wet the adhesive residues with a mixture of white spirit and isopropanol (at a ratio of 1:1), let soak and scrape off with a spatula / scraper. If necessary, finish with a (window) cleaning agent.

How can I avoid or remove air bubbles when applying d-c-fix® foil?

d-c-fix® foil?
It is always best only to remove part of the backing paper and press down on the foil from the middle to the sides using a scraper or cloth. If you place the foil incorrectly, you can peel it off and try again (except from paper or card board). For the best result, use a scraper to smooth it out. Alternatively, you can use a small square of wood covered with a soft piece of carpet or fabric.

With non-porous surfaces a little water can be sprayed on the surface. This makes it easier to apply the foil.

How do I attach several pieces of foil to each other?

If the surface to be covered with foil is larger than the foil dimensions, several pieces of foil can be attached to each other. Stick the individual pieces together so that they overlap by approximately 10 mm to avoid exposed areas later on. Our foils are unsuitable for covering larger surfaces such as walls as they cannot be processed like wallpaper, since the pattern is offset and sections cannot be placed perfectly under or next to each other.

How do I cut my d-c-fix® foil accurately?

You can use a ruler and pen to draw any desired shape on the foil backing paper before cutting it out. The grid marked out on the backing paper helps here. If you want to produce precise edges you should always cut the foil about 4mm longer than you need it and then cut away the excess foil with a sharp knife or box cutter.

How do I remove d-c-fix® self-adhesive foil?

Starting from one corner, simply peel off the foil. The foil is particularly easy to remove if it is warmed up (here again you should use a hair dryer). You can remove any adhesive residue using an alcohol-based solvent.

How environmentally friendly are d-c-fix® foils?

d-c-fix® foils contain no heavy metals, are colorfast according to DIN EN ISO 105-B02 and wear- and abrasion-resistant according to DIN EN ISO 105-X12. Only solvent-free dispersion adhesives are used. d-c-fix® foils are also perfectly safe for children’s rooms if used according to instructions.

How heat resistant are self-adhesive d-c-fix® foils?

d-c-fix® foils can withstand temperatures of up to 80°C

Is there a d-c-fix® application service?

What do you need to work with d-c-fix® adhesive foil?

Scissors or a box cutter, ruler or measuring stick, a pen and a plastic smoother. A smoother is a hard rubber spatula obtainable from an arts and crafts supply or DIY store.

What properties should the surface to which the d-c-fix® foil is being attached have?

It should be smooth, dust-free and grease-free; untreated wood (chipboard or plywood) should first be treated with a primer (sealing primer/acrylic base).

What should I do if the d-c-fix® foil doesn’t stick down at the edges?

If this happens you should use a commercially available superglue (please observe manufacturer’s information: plasticizer resistant) or iron the foil on setting 1, placing a sheet of paper between the iron and the foil

What type of adhesive can be used to help if the d-c-fix® adhesive foil does not adhere properly?

We recommend Pattex strong transparent adhesive or UHU all-purpose strong adhesive to help with the application in particularly critical situations. These are solvent-based adhesives where you should allow as much as possible of the solvent to escape before the surface and foil are brought together. According to the manufacturers, the adhesives are suitable for many plastics. Even so, we recommend testing this beforehand to see how the surface on which the foil is to be applied reacts to the adhesive. Alternatively, you can also use water-based (solvent-free) adhesives – it is important to ensure that the adhesive is resistant to plasticisers. However, a specific type of glue cannot be recommended here.

Is click vinyl flooring suitable for laying in the conservatory?

Yes, provided that the conservatory is a living space, (ambient temperature 15°C–40°C). d-c-floor® click vinyl flooring can also be laid in rooms with more direct sunlight due to its high dimensional stability. Nevertheless, try to create shade in extreme temperatures in order to enhance the floor’s durability.

Is the flooring suitable for outdoor use?

No, it is flooring that has been specially developed for indoor use.

Which surfaces are suitable for laying click vinyl?

The surfaces must be dry, flat, free of cracks, have suitable tensile/compressive strength, clean, stable and permanently connected to the substrate. Textile surfaces must be removed for strength reasons and from a hygiene perspective (risk of mildew formation) prior to installation.

Will I have to use a moisture barrier?

If the vinyl flooring is being laid directly on an underlying mineral surface such as concrete or screed, then use of a moisture barrier is recommended. This will protect your vinyl flooring against rising damp.

Will I have to use footfall sound insulation?

Yes, use of an underlay (compressive strength ≥ 200 kPa as per EN 16354) is necessary for design flooring. In this way, the acoustic properties of the rigid vinyl flooring will be optimized, localized unevenness of up to 1 mm corrected and the floor’s durability prolonged.

Tablecloths & placemats

Table - E

Are the easy-care d-c-fix® tablecloths heat-resistant?

Moderately warm items, such as a coffee pot, can be placed on the tablecloth for a short time. Contact with hot items, such as a frying pan, must be avoided, otherwise the surface of the tablecloth may be damaged.

Can d-c-fix® tablecloths that are suitable for machine washing be washed as often as you like?

In principle, the tablecloths that are suitable for machine washing can be washed repeatedly without a problem in accordance with the care instructions. However, there is a risk that the stain guard finish gradually deteriorates if they are washed too frequently or regularly in a washing machine. The tablecloths should therefore not be washed more than 5-6 times in a washing machine.

Can I eat food that has come into contact with the d-c-fix® tablecloth?

All d-c-fix® tablecloths are food safe. This means that you can eat the food even if it comes into contact with the tablecloth.

Do stains or marks have to be removed immediately?

We recommend wiping stains off the tablecloth immediately after use with a mild cleaning agent and a damp cloth. Stains, liquids, inks and particularly aggressive and heavily pigmented substances (e.g. ketchup, mustard) should be removed immediately. Strongly abrasive and chlorine-based cleaning agents must never be used as they may attack the surface coating and discolouration may occur. Note: Petals, leaves and moisture may cause stains when used outdoors for long periods of time.

How can fold marks be removed from the d-c-fix® tablecloth?

These folds can be more or less removed by ironing the reverse side of textile-backed tablecloths. Tablecloths that are made entirely from PVC (e.g. lacquer foil, transparent) must never be ironed.

What is the correct tablecloth size for my table?

Measure the length and width or the diameter of your table and add twice the overhang you want on the sides. This is generally 25cm.

Which side of the table protector is the top and which side is the bottom?

The table protector must be placed on the table with the textile side downwards, as the PVC foam could otherwise damage table surfaces with shellack or nitrocellulose lacquer coating, water-soluble varnish or unhardened paint sealants.
