Routing, grooving, and folding are usually needed to form a variety shapes or sizes. In this process, the back surface of Alcotuff is cut forming a V-shaped or rectangular one, using disc or end milling cutter. The front surface of the aluminum cover and part of the core are retained to enable it to be folded. Please ensure to leave at least 0.4mm thickness of the core.(see pict 3.2.1 and pict 3.2.2)

The recommended minimum distance of the grove line from the panel edge is 20mm
( see pict 3.1)

Alcotuff can be cleaned using a soft sponge or a high-pressure water (max 50 bar). If needed, max 10% mild cleaning agent at Ph 6-7 can be mixed in the water. A trial on a smaller surface is recommended to ensure that this liquid mixture doesn’t affect Alcotuff surface.

Surface heated by the sun over 40 °C is not recommended for the cleaning process as the quick drying might cause blemishes all over the surface. Wait till the temperature goes down.

Please keep Alcotuff in a dry place and away from the sun. Exposure to direct sunlight for long time might cause the difficulty to remove the masking film.

Ensure the temperature stability of the storage place to avoid any condensation that might damage the surface of the sheet.

Store Alcotuff horizontally to avoid bending on the panel surface. When piling the sheet on a pallet, ensure to heap only sheets with the same sizes. It is also not recommended to stack the pallet one over the other.
