Extend the Life of Film-Faced Plywood (Do's and Don'ts)
✓Seal the edges with a special paint immediately after cutting/drilling

✓Apply a high-quality, dedicated mold release agent before each use
✗Use waste engine oil or no mold release agent
✓Immediately after removing the formwork, clean the surface cement residue and clean it thoroughly
✗Do not clean it after it has accumulated for a long time. Use hard objects to scrape the surface of the formwork
✓Civilized formwork removal: Use professional tools to gently pry from the overlap.
✗Use a sledgehammer to smash, pry from the middle, and violent formwork removal.
✓Store indoors in a dry and flat environment, raise it up and cover it.
✗Store it outdoors in a random manner, exposed to the sun and rain, and in direct contact with the ground.
✓Check regularly, repair and re-seal minor damages.
✗Ignore minor damages and continue to use until they are completely damaged.
