G Mex Centre, Manchester, UK

Protectapeel Signmask & SC1090

The G-Mex Centre in Manchester was the venue for gymnastics, weightlifting, judo and wrestling during the 2002 Commonwealth Games and naturally TV footage of these events was required. When filming events such as these, controlled lighting is required rather than natural daylight as it varies too often. The event organisers needed to find a temporary way of blocking out the natural daylight that was coming in through the grade 1 listed building’s glass roof.

 Protectapeel Signmask & SC1090 was applied to the exterior of the glass roof and provided the perfect solution;

• Protectapeel Signmask was colour matched to black, to block out the natural light.
• SC1090 was applied in grey; this is a water proof topcoat that can withstand weathering for up to 12 months.
• A quick and easy application process by airless spray gun.
• When required the products can be simply peeled off the glass roof, leaving no marks or residue behind.

Since the Common Wealth Games in 2002 we have continued to supply the G-Mex Centre with our Protectapeel Signmask and SC1090 for various projects including political conferences held there in 2006, 2008 and 2009.
