9 | ![]() Hair-dryer (HOT air for this step) comes handy because it softens the sticker and confers a greater elasticity. It makes the sticker easier to stretch thus less pleats will form. Pleats are always found when we fold down the sticker. By stretching the sticker can overcome the problem. |
|
10 | ![]() Can always try using finger to press and rub to fix the sticker after minor stretch rather than just stretch it all the way. After all, the purpose and goal is to wrap the sticker beautifully without crease. |
|
11 | ![]() Wrap from one corner first then gradually pressing along the side to certain extent then wrap another neighboring corner. |
|
12 | ![]() Make sure all the area to be wrapped has no pleats found. For those that exceed the range can be ignored. Carry on until the sides are nicely wrapped. |
|
13 | ![]() The excessive part of the sticker can always be pressed down to attach as well to increase the adherence. |
|
14 | ![]() Press harder and spend longer time when necessary. This step is very important, if not done carefully shrinkage will occurred. |
|
15 | ![]() This step is very important as well. Another alternative is to let it cool down itself if cold air is not applied. But then the duration would be much longer and theoretically, leave it (or apply cold air) for longer time will produce more stable attachment with no shrinkage. |
|
16 | ![]() Hold the cutter in nice and stable pose. |
|
17 | ![]() The screen part can preserve for protection actually if customer find it acceptable. |
