Wallis anti-fingerprint gloss clear PET sheet film combines a transparent PET substrate with an easy-clean surface treatment that helps make fingerprints, skin oils and smudges less visible. It is designed for display windows, touch-panel overlays, control panels, appliance fascias, electronic-device surfaces and other high-contact applications that require clarity and a polished gloss appearance.
The PET thickness, width, sheet or roll format, gloss, optical performance and anti-fingerprint coating can be matched to the converting process and finished product. Buyers should define measurable acceptance criteria—such as light transmission, haze, gloss, coating adhesion, contact angle, abrasion resistance and cleaning durability—before approving a production grade.
The following table summarizes Wallis supply options and the technical items that should be confirmed during sampling. Final values depend on the selected PET substrate, coating construction and application.

Anti-fingerprint PET film is a functional surface material made from a clear PET substrate and an anti-smudge or easy-clean surface treatment. The treatment changes how skin oil and moisture interact with the surface, helping reduce the contrast of fingerprints and making residue easier to wipe away while preserving a glossy appearance.
PET provides transparency, dimensional stability and converting performance. The functional coating provides the anti-fingerprint behavior. Because performance depends on the complete coating system, two visually similar clear PET films can deliver very different cleanability, abrasion life and optical results.
An easy-clean or oleophobic surface is engineered so fingerprint oils spread or adhere less readily than on untreated PET. Depending on the coating design, residue may form smaller marks, become less visually obvious or be removed with fewer wiping passes.
Initial contact angle or fingerprint resistance does not show how the film will perform after repeated touching and cleaning. For high-contact applications, evaluate anti-fingerprint behavior together with abrasion, coating adhesion, haze, gloss and cleanability after a representative wear cycle.
Anti-fingerprint, hard coat, anti-glare, anti-reflective, hydrophobic, adhesive-backed and antimicrobial are different functions. They may be combined in one product, but none should be assumed unless it is stated and tested for the exact ordered grade.
The treated gloss surface helps reduce visible fingerprint contrast and oily smears, allowing displays, panels and decorative surfaces to retain a cleaner-looking appearance between wiping cycles.
A clear gloss construction supports product visibility, printed graphics and display brightness. Optical performance should be specified through measurable transmission, haze and gloss targets rather than visual description alone.
An easy-clean coating can reduce the effort needed to remove fingerprints and common surface residue. Cleaning-agent compatibility and coating durability should be tested with the actual chemicals, cloths and wiping frequency used in service.
PET offers useful strength and dimensional stability for slitting, sheet cutting, precision die cutting, printing and laminating. Processing conditions should protect the coated side from scratching, blocking or contamination.
Anti-fingerprint PET can be used as a protective or decorative surface layer for touch interfaces and display windows. Touch sensitivity, optical bonding, adhesive compatibility and display readability must be tested with the complete assembly.
Frequently touched payment terminals, self-service kiosks and public information displays benefit from lower fingerprint visibility and easier routine wiping. Specify abrasion and cleaner resistance for the expected maintenance schedule.
Clear PET overlays can protect graphics and viewing areas on machinery controls, membrane switches and operator panels. Chemical resistance, flex life, print adhesion and switch actuation requirements should be evaluated for the specific construction.
The film can be considered for selected vehicle displays, appliance control panels and decorative electronic interfaces. Projects should validate temperature cycling, UV exposure, cleaning chemicals, optical appearance and coating durability before qualification.
PET resin is converted into clear sheet or film under controlled thickness, width and surface-quality conditions. The substrate must provide the flatness, clarity and dimensional stability required by the coating and downstream converting process.
A functional coating is applied and cured on the display-facing side. The coating formulation and curing process determine surface energy, gloss, touch feel, adhesion and resistance to repeated wiping. Optional hard-coat or other optical functions require a separately engineered coating stack.
After coating, the material can be inspected for surface defects, optical consistency and coating performance before slitting, sheet cutting and export packing. Protective masking and clean handling may be specified when the finished surface has strict cosmetic requirements.
A useful approval plan should reproduce the optical, mechanical and cleaning demands of the final application. Depending on the project, buyers may specify:
Thickness, width, flatness, curl and dimensional tolerances.
Total light transmission, haze, clarity, gloss and rainbow-effect limits.
Fingerprint visibility, water/oil contact angle or an agreed easy-clean test.
Pencil hardness and abrasion resistance when a hard-coated grade is required.
Coating adhesion before and after environmental or cleaning exposure.
Resistance to the actual alcohol, detergent or commercial cleaner used in service.
Surface defects, scratches, gels, black spots, coating streaks and other cosmetic limits.
Print, adhesive, lamination and die-cutting compatibility with the complete assembly.
Shanghai Wallis Technology Co., Ltd. supplies PET/PETG, PVC, polycarbonate and acrylic sheet and film materials through a manufacturing network of seven plants. Wallis supports B2B buyers with substrate selection, customized dimensions, functional surface treatment, sample evaluation, production coordination and export packing.
For an anti-fingerprint project, the Wallis team can review the required appearance, optical targets, service environment, cleaning method and converting process before preparing a sample. This reduces the risk of selecting a film based only on the words “clear,” “gloss” or “anti-fingerprint.”
Provide the required thickness, width, sheet or roll format, quantity, light transmission, haze, gloss, anti-fingerprint test, surface hardness, abrasion requirement, cleaning chemicals and converting method. Also state whether the material requires printing, adhesive lamination, protective masking, die cutting or forming. A finished-product sample or drawing can speed up grade selection.

It is clear PET sheet or film with a functional surface treatment that reduces the visibility or adhesion of fingerprint oils and makes common residue easier to wipe away. It is used on display windows, panels and other frequently touched surfaces.
No. Fingerprints can still occur. The purpose is to make marks less visible, reduce oil adhesion or improve cleanability. Performance depends on the coating, lighting, surface gloss, user contact and cleaning history.
Only when the selected grade includes a tested hard-coat function. Anti-fingerprint and scratch resistance are separate properties. If surface hardness is important, specify the pencil-hardness and abrasion test required for the finished application.
No. Anti-fingerprint treatment addresses visible smudges and cleanability; it does not imply that the surface inhibits bacteria, viruses or other microorganisms. Antimicrobial performance requires a separate formulation and validated testing.
Evaluate initial fingerprint visibility or contact angle and then repeat the test after representative abrasion and cleaning cycles. Also check transmission, haze, gloss, coating adhesion, scratches and compatibility with the final assembly.
Yes, suitable grades can be slit, sheet cut, printed, laminated and die cut. Confirm which side is coated and test ink, primer, adhesive and processing conditions because an easy-clean surface may reduce adhesion.
Recyclability depends on the coating, adhesive, inks, laminated layers, local collection system and recycling process. Buyers should evaluate the complete finished construction rather than assuming that a coated or laminated product follows the same recycling route as uncoated PET.
Yes. Wallis can discuss customized thickness, width, sheet or roll format, gloss, optical targets, anti-fingerprint performance, hard-coat requirements, protective masking and packing method. Availability and MOQ depend on the final specification.
Send the thickness, width, format, quantity, application, optical requirements, anti-fingerprint test, durability target, cleaning chemicals, converting process and delivery destination. Include a drawing or reference sample when cosmetic appearance is critical.
