What is BUSTERBITE?

BUSTERBITE is the easy solution to mounting lighting filters onto larger frames.

Presented in 2004, the patent-pending BUSTERBITE system is an invention by Johan and Pontus Lindblad, who have worked in the Swedish film industry for a combined total of over 50 years.
The system consists of a self adhesive BUSTERBITE, a bungy cord with a metal hook and an aluminium BUSTERBITE-sized collapsible frame (137x137 cm).

How does it work?

Simple! Cut your filter into a square shape. The BUSTERBITE-sized frame allows you to use the whole width of the filter, 122 cm; if you are using another frame size, simply cut your filter approximately 10 cm smaller that your frame.

Mount a BUSTERBITE in each corner of your filter (the BUSTERBITE is for one time use only. Don´t try to peel it off and reuse it, the adhesive will not be strong enough. Reuse the whole filter with its four BUSTERBITES instead). Attach 4 bungy cords to the corners of your frame and stick each metal hook through the filter and the hole in the BUSTERBITE.

Your filter is now perfectly mounted in your frame. No extra tools required!
