The safety door in the stairwell has been used for a long time. It is full of scratches and stains, and the peeled skin can be seen everywhere. If you want to replace a new fire door, the cost is too high. The first thing an experienced film maker does when he arrives at the site is to inspect the base layer, observe the peeling parts of the surface, and use oily putty to fill up the pits and bumps on the surface. After smoothing, wait for the putty to dry.Then, use an electric sander to polish the unsmoothed place on the surface of the putty until it is smooth, and use a dry rag or paper towel to clean the surface dust to ensure that there is no foreign matter on the surface of the base layer.
Prepare a bucket, mix the special primer for wood grain melamine paper and water according to the ratio of 1:2 or 1:3, and then evenly brush it on the door panel that needs to be filmed, try not to let any small places. It will make the film stick more firmly. When the primer is dry, you can measure the size of the door panel and frame, and then cut the wood grain melamine paper for later use.
After the primer dries, the film is applied. At this time, the ten-centimeter release paper will be torn first, positioned from top to bottom, and after the position is determined, the release paper will be torn off while the air bubbles are discharged, so that the final effect will not be tilted. The corners should be treated according to the effect of edging, so as to prevent the edges from being constantly exposed to the film material and cause material wear. Then use a heat gun to heat the interface part at low temperature, and press the protruding corners to level.
The final result is this.
