How to work with Tece screw covers
Surface to be applied: it must be clean; it must be free of dust, dirt, oil, or any other material that can prevents a proper adhesive of screw cover to the board. We ask the users to clean the surface of board with a slightly damp cloth before sticking the cover.
After peeling off the screw cover from the white substrate, make sure that there is minimal contact between finger and the adhesive.
Temperature: the ideal temperature for application is room temperate between 18° C and 25° C.
To apply the screw cover: the cover should put over the screw / hole and put pressure on it. The result should be checked after 24 hours after application. If you still face breaking of 3D edgebanding, please contact with us.
