Pasting with carbon fiber: the necessary materials and tools, the technology of pasting

Under the phrase "pasting carbon" is usually meant by pasting a vinyl self-adhesive film that mimics the texture of the carbon. The main advantages of using the film for carbon as compared to classical painting are smaller time and material costs (there is no need for preliminary priming of the surface, as well as no need to wait until the primer and paint dry), the possibility of self-gluing with auto carbon, a minimal set of tools. There are two types of pasting: "dry" and "wet". Next, it will be described the carbonation of car parts by the "dry" method.

Required Tools

At work, you will need: the film itself for carbon with channels for air outlet, hair dryer (better than building, but you can use the usual for drying hair), scissors, clerical knife, clean soft fabric, it is also desirable to have a squeegee and primer for vinyl film. The thicker the film, the better it hides the unevenness of the surface to be glued, but a very thick film is worse glued at the pivot points, the optimum thickness is assumed to be 200 μm.

Surface preparation

The durability of film coating largely depends on the quality of this stage. First of all, it is necessary to get rid of chips, cracks, dents, as well as corrosion spots on the coating, for this you can use car shpatlevku. After drying, the places covered with putty must be sanded with a grain of at least 300 grit. Then it is necessary to thoroughly wash the pasted surface from dirt and degrease with gasoline or solvent.

Cut off a piece of film that is necessary in size, this size consists of the area of the part and the margin for tucking from all sides. Reserve better to take more - up to 8-10 centimeters for large parts. It is important that the lines of the drawing on the neighboring details are directed in one direction.

Pasting with carbon begins with straight sections. Turning is done last. The film heated by the dryer can be stretched, and due to this, uneven surfaces are pasted. Air from under the pasted film is expelled with the help of a squeegee or cloth from a cent to the edges. If there is a primer, then they smear the edges of the part being glued to strengthen the adhesion in the pivots. Carving by carbon is done by the principle: one piece - one piece of film. Do not overheat and do not stretch the film too much, otherwise you will break the structure of its surface, such a defect will be clearly visible. After pasting for several weeks, it is better not to wash the car and do not drive at high speed, so that the film sat down and "remembered" the shape of the car.

If the air after the pasting is still under the film, then it is necessary to press this place with a damp cloth, and then warm it with a hair dryer, when heated the film contracts and the defect is most likely not noticeable. Pasting of salon carbon by the same principle, only the dimensions of the parts are usually smaller, and they have a more complex shape.

If you follow these simple tips, then sticking carbon car will be for you a simple task, and the result of the work will please you and your friends.
