Part 2 Performing Cutting

2.4 Applying Cut Material

When storing material that has been cut, be sure to cover it with application tape. This protects the material against

dust.

You can prevent the entry of dust inside the material by leaving an edge on the cut material at this time.

Peel off excess portions of the sheet.

You can peel detailed areas easily using commercially

available pointed tweezers or the like.

Cover evenly with application tape so that no air bubbles

are trapped between the tape and the material, then

transfer the material to the tape.

You can transfer the material easily by using a commer-

cially available squeegee or the flat part of a ruler or the

like to rub the cut material from above the application

tape.

Wipe away any dust or oil from the location where the

material is to be applied.

When transferring the material to the object, air may get

between the material and the transfer surface, forming air

bubbles. If this happens, use a needle to puncture the

bubbles, then press out the trapped air and affix the

material to the transfer surface.

Place the entire piece of application tape against the

object, then press down evenly on the tape, working from

top to bottom. While constantly making sure the material

has been transferred to the object, slowly peel away the

application tape.
