A method for producing a patterned pressure-sensitive adhesive body includes a pattern forming step of cutting a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer in a pressure-sensitive adhesive film including a first release film and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer laminated on one surface of the first release film so as to form a first slit in a pattern shape and an outer frame forming step of cutting the first release film and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer so as to form a second slit in an outer frame shape surrounding the pattern shape. The second slit has a discontinuous portion in a cutting direction.

Patterned pressure-sensitive adhesive body and producing method thereof

Sheets for protecting paint films of automobiles which can adhere with no wrinkle to paint films of automobiles and cover the same, even in curved surface portions, at a high reliability while achieving excellent protection function to colliding matters, etc. (i.e., the inherent function of protecting sheets) and being easily peeled and removed after completion of the aimed protection, thus preventing the permeation of rainwater, etc. and protecting the paint films of automobiles from being damaged by denaturation, etc. Such a sheet for protecting paint films of automobiles comprises a support () comprising a polymer film () having a nonwoven fabric () laminated on one or both surfaces thereof, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer () formed on one surface of the polymer film, wherein the non-woven fabric has a basic weight of 5 to 100 g/m.

Sheet for protecting paint films of automobiles

A sheet for protecting paint films of automobiles which can prevent the paint film of automobiles from suffering from damages such as discoloration and denaturation even if rainwater or washer penetrates into the gap between the adhesive cover and the paint film while achieving excellent protection function to suspended matters, colliding matters, etc. inherent to protecting sheets and being easily peeled off and removed after completion of the desired protection. The sheet for protecting paint films of automobiles comprises a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having a roughened surface provided on a substrate made of fiber sheet. Even when rainwater, washer, etc. penetrates into the gap between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the paint film of automobiles from wrinkles formed thereon, the liquid diffuses by capillary action through the gap developed by the roughened pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, making it possible to avoid the residence and concentration of the penetrated dirty water and hence prevent the occurrence of damages such as discoloration and denaturation of the paint film. Further, the arrangement of a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having a roughened surface reflecting the fiber constituting the protecting sheet, particularly a fibrous continuous roughened surface, makes it possible to further diffuse the contaminating dirty water and hence further avoid the retention and concentration of the penetrated dirty water. Thus, the damages on the paint film can be more securely prevented.
