Dartek Film – C-917

Dartek C-917 is a soft transparent archival quality nylon film with no plasticisers, additives or surface coatings. Often used as a covering membrane for lining of paintings, art wrapping, dust covers and much more.

• Excellent for temporary wrapping of paintings that have not fully dried (i.e. oils, mixed media etc) as it will not adhere readily to the art as Glassine or tissue paper can
• Completely transparent, excellent for protection of artwork which still needs to be viewed. If using for archival storage, additional protection from UV light might be necessary
• Dartek C-917 is heat stabilised, making it useful on vacuum hot tables when lining paintings
• Can stretch, and can be welded (melting point of 266°C, heat increases its flexibility) and is ideal for creating dust covers
• Due to its flexibility and resistance to tearing Dartek can be used to wrap sculptures and other irregular shaped objects

Conservators and artists will find many more uses for Dartek cast nylon film.
