Pentagon Elite Flex ible Attachment System

Got this email today. Love to be able to use this instead of Dow....looks very easy to install...a little expensive though, but well worth it I guess...

This stuff is what we use on all of our safety film work for large retailers. It is much better than using Dow 995 and the above costs are pretty attractive. Our company pays nearly that even when we purchase very large quantities ($5000-$7500) at a time. If you have not tried it, I would and you will never go back to Dow 995 again.

Any one have any tips on getting attachment corners to fit nicely? Mitre meeting mitre
or mitre against a squared end???

Easy to work with but expensive. Doesn't work best for every application.

Hey V ,I thought all the Mfgs. were involved in that practice one way or another???? I would agree with you though (Comm. Direct )

The best way to do the corners is a basic notch fit. Notch the horizontal edge to accommodate the vertical piece. If you measure the amount the vertical is on the glass, the notch should be able to be made very cleanly and have little or no light gap. If you do have a small light gap, a dab of black silicone is recommended to give a more finished look.
