ADAPT Floor Graphics

Maintenance

•Waxing the floor graphic 24 hours after installation, can help seal the edges and protect the graphic from industrial floor scrubbers and cleaning chemicals. •The end user should satisfy themselves that any cleaning agents or liquids likely to come in to contact with the floor graphic after application, are suitable and not likely to contaminate the substrate or affect the bond. •Avoid dragging or driving heavy machinery such as forklifts, pallet trucks, and vehicles over the floor graphic. •Whilst some edge chipping can be expected over time, if any edges start to separate and lift from the floor, the entire graphic must be removed and/or replaced immediately to prevent this being a trip hazard. Removal •To begin removal of the floor graphic, start by peeling back one edge/corner of the graphic. Continue to peel back the remainder of the graphic using smooth and consistent force. For larger graphics, it may be easier to remove in stages. Again, start by peeling back one edge/corner of the graphic. Continue to peel the graphic back until a manageable size has been lifted. Use a knife to gently slit an edge, and as you continue to pull the graphic back, this slit should continue to tear, allowing you to remove the graphic in smaller sections. Continue to do the same for the remaining sections. •Removing the graphics may pull up the paint, varnish or wax from the floor’s surface, even when substrates with removable adhesives are used. It is up to the supplier of the graphics to test the substrate for suitability. No liability is given for damage the floor surface, as this is out of our control. •Should any adhesive residue be left behind on the floor following the removal of the graphic, this must be removed with an appropriate adhesive remover. See manufacturer’s guidelines of any such adhesive removing agent to check compatibility with the floor’s surface.
