    Can anyone give me any advice on fitting perforated vinyl?? I have 3 lengths of 630mm x 3000mm to fit on the windows of a cafe. I have never fitted this before that’s why am asking, also will the temperature affect this in anyway??

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    To be honest I have never applied it in cold weather so can’t comment but based on the experience I have with it just treat it like vinyl and you shouldn’t have any problems.

    Just be careful of the bubbles :lol1:

    Cheers

    Yeh, dry.

    Hinge at the top & work down…align next panel & off you go again.

    If you are worried about stretching (and images not matching on the join) – tape it first otherwise it’s a doddle.

    wipe window bone dry..
    degrease with isoprop or meths…
    with down again with dry paper towel.

    Apply dry, no app tape needed.

    be careful though as the vinyl will be brittle and easily torn.
