Peel and stick stretch wrap
First Claim
1. A stretch wrap, comprising:
- a surface material having a length, width and thickness; and
one or more slits that extend throughout the thickness of the surface material;
wherein the slits allow the surface material to stretch without tearing when the material is extended in a lengthwise or widthwise direction.

Abstract
A paper or plastic surface material of appropriate thickness and stiffness which can be coated with or laminated to asphaltic or non-asphaltic adhesives. The surface material can have a plurality of individual slits formed in substantially parallel spaced rows extending transversely from one end to the opposing end of the surface material. The flexible surface material is expandable by extending the opposing ends of the surface material whereby the slits form an array of openings. The length, width and spacing of the cuts can be varied to achieve desired stretch ratios. The surface material can be easily stored in the non-expandable position and easily expanded to be stretchable and conformable around windows, skylights or other suitable uses.

18. A method of applying a stretch wrap, the method comprising:
-
peeling a release film off a bottom side of a surface material thus exposing an adhesive on the bottom side of the surface material, the surface material having a length, width thickness, and one or more slits that extend throughout the thickness of the surface material; and applying the surface material to a border, the surface material being stretchable and conforming to the shape of the border; wherein the slits allow the surface material to stretch without tearing when the surface material is extended in a lengthwise and/or widthwise direction. - View Dependent Claims (19)
