Films provide graffiti protection for variety of surfaces.
May 26, 2006 -
Peel-and-stick FluoroGrip® fluoropolymer films are installed to protect signs, steel and concrete structures, equipment, glass, and other surfaces in public places against paints, acids, dirt, and grime. Permanent, chemical covalent bond between film and adhesive withstands different stresses such as extreme temperature cycling, UV rays, and aggressive chemicals including acids. Films are suited for use in new construction or ongoing maintenance programs.

Integument Peel and Stick Films Provide Graffiti Protection for a Variety of Surfaces
March 13, 2006
Tonawanda, N.Y. - Integument Technologies, Inc., a science-based developer and manufacturer of engineered fluoropolymer systems of films, sheets and coatings,
announces the availability of FluoroGrip® fluoropolymer films to provide protection
against graffiti on a variety of surfaces. FluoroGrip peel-and-stick, clear films are easy to use and install to protect signs, steel and concrete structures, equipment, glass and other surfaces in public places against paints, acids, dirt and grime.
FluoroGrip UV-stable, Teflon® films offer a permanent alternative to conventionally etched films due to a patented plasma surface modification. The process creates a permanent, chemical covalent bond between the film and adhesive while retaining the full transparency of the film. The bond is permanent enabling it to be used in surface protection applications where currently available film product used may fail within 2 to 3 years.
The covalent bond withstands a wide variety of stresses such as extreme temperature cycling, UV rays, and a wide range of aggressive chemicals including acids. FluoroGrip films help prevent surface damage caused by graffiti. Paint, ink, acids and grime are easier to clean from the non-stick fluoropolymer film surface. They also provide anti-corrosion protection to the underlying substrates.
FluoroGrip® films offer superior adhesive technology for easy, peel-and-stick installation by existing maintenance crews. Its solid sheet design assures consistent coverage, even on edges and corners and systems are engineered for ease of inspection and maintenance. The films are ideal for use in new construction or ongoing maintenance programs.
FluoroGrip® films are applied in a single application process with minimal surface preparation compared to that for traditional spray-applied materials. Furthermore, FluoroGrip® films are safer with no VOCs or hazardous solvents, eliminating the need for solvent-related protective clothing and equipment. Labor and installation costs are also reduced as well as downtime and waste disposal costs.
