How do I prepare the solution to laminate a Displax touch sensor?

To properly laminate a Displax touch sensor onto a glass substrate, you must prepare a MIX solution that allows for repositioning and air-bubble-free installation.

MIX Solution – Water + Baby Shampoo

Prepare the MIX in this ratio:

  • 90% Distilled or Bottled Water

  • 10% Johnson’s Baby Shampoo (pH 5.5)

Example: For a 1000 ml spray bottle:

  • Fill with 900 ml of distilled or bottled water

  • Add 100 ml of Johnson’s Baby Shampoo

  • Gently shake to mix (don’t shake too hard to avoid foam)

Use a dedicated spray bottle for the MIX (do not use the one reserved for pure water).

Handling Care Tips

Displax touch sensors are delicate. To avoid damage during the process:

  • Handle the sensor gently to prevent creases or tears

  • Always lay it flat on a smooth, soft, non-abrasive surface

  • A flat table with a foam layer is ideal for sensor handling

  • Rippling seen between the protection layer and the sensor from the packaging is normal and will disappear after proper lamination
