How do you apply Carpet Film? Just roll it out by hand or use an applicator tool. The rolls are commonly “reverse wound” meaning that the adhesive is on the exterior of the roll. This allows you to roll it out without a lot of bending and finessing the film in place.
What do you do when the job is finished? Just peel and toss the film. It gathers up in seconds and should be recycled with other plastics. The Carpet underneath will look just as it did before you applied the film.
Can I use the film on other types of floors and surfaces? Yes and no. Carpet Film is specifically made for artificial Carpet typically found in homes and offices. For Wood and other hard surfaces, you should use a Hard exterior Film. For Marble and Granite surfaces a Marble and Granite Film made specifically to bind to those surfaces should be used.

There are many good brands available, but typically the imports use a solvent based adhesive that may leave a residue. Also the imports don’t commonly use a true 3 mil film. By using a 2 or 2.5 mil film they cut the import shipping weight by 20 to 30%. The cost dissimilarity of just a few dollars is not worth the liability of having to fix or replace a carpet.
