I designed a plastic cover to be made of shiny ABS sheet shaped by vacuum molding technique.
The product will be produced in about 100 pcs/month (not large quantity)
This material is delivered/processed with protective foil which we would like to keep on the surface until it is delivered to a customer.
The problem is that we need to apply a logo on the surface made of separate letters: made of finochrom:
http://www.rathgeber.eu/en/product/finochrom.html
and in that place we need to remove the protective foil. The molded part is about 140 x 65 cm (portrait), logo is 150x14mm placed in 1/5th from top edge.
But when we remove the original protective foil, we cannot put it back, there can be a little dust underneath, it is stretched, bubbles, etc. Simply not accteptable.
The question is: Is there any technique, trick, how to safely remove (partly) and apply new protective foil?
Or any idea how to nicely protect shiny plastic surface if we remove the foil?
Thanks for any ideas
