perforated window film with optical clear

[dasigndr]

I am printing on perforated window film with optical clear overlaminate. My question is...can you heat stretch this when applying it to a convex or complicated curve? I often start to get creases towards the edges on curved windows that I have a hard time getting out. Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance for any help!!!

Yes, heat is your friend, but no, no stretching. You just need some time to lay it flat without stretching it.

WOW!!! How do you heat it without stretching it? LOL

When you heat vinyl it will relax on its own. Don't have to stretch anything if you heating something

Since it's going on glass, is heat a good idea ?

you heat before you lay on the glass, as in just a couple of inches off of the glass.

yes you can get while on the glass. granted you have to be careful and also be aware of the ambient temp. Don't heat if its cold
