Outstanding features of this extra strong transparent tarpaulin

This transparent film with a thickness of 0.50 mm stands out not only in terms of strength and durability but also due to its truly GLASS-clear properties.

Note: To facilitate processing in the context of transporting the material, we recommend spraying the film with silicone spray. If you wish to handle the material more easily (with a light household sewing machine), take the 0.40 film and also use silicone spray to ease the needle. The 0.30 film (also available in our webshop ) can be processed on a household machine at any time. SEE OUR BELOW CONFECTION VIDEOS.
We also offer this transparent film in an extra width of 180 cm.

FIRST PROCESSING of the film and AVOID SHRINKING

24 hours of acclimating
Transparent window film may still stretch or shrink slightly. If there are many meters of film in the direction in which it needs to be tensioned, shrinking can be an issue with fluctuating temperatures. If the tarpaulin remains tensioned throughout the year, it will keep its length and you will notice little shrinkage.

Upon receipt:
When you receive our window film, the material has just come off the roll. Allow it to "acclimatize" for 24 hours so that it can process the shrinkage or temperature changes. Also, don't forget to use our double-sided tape to precisely position the film on the fabric/tarp. See the confection videos below.

After a longer period:
If the material has been rolled up for a long time, the film may shrink slightly with temperature changes and will need to be stretched again. This should not be done by forcing the material back to its original tension. Solution: Keep the material taut so that it has no chance to shrink. Do not leave it rolled up all summer. If this is not possible and winter storage is involved, do the following: Ensure the material is hung out in a warm room for 24 hours so that the film becomes flexible. Then slowly stretch the material, allowing it time to expand.
Another practical solution: Use a heater in a closed room to make the transparent film flexible, then slowly tension the film.
