FAQs

What surfaces can I apply this vinyl wrap to?

This vinyl wrap is best suited for smooth, clean, and dry surfaces such as laminate, finished wood, metal, and glass. It may not adhere well to rough, porous, or freshly painted surfaces.

How do I clean the vinyl wrap?

You can clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Wipe dry immediately.

Is this vinyl wrap safe for direct contact with food?

While the surface is wipe-clean, it is recommended to use cutting boards for food preparation and trivets for hot items to protect the vinyl.

Can I reposition the film if I make a mistake?

Yes, the film is repositionable during installation, allowing you to correct mistakes. Peel it back carefully and reapply.

How heat-resistant is the vinyl wrap?

The vinyl wrap is heat-resistant up to 70°C. It is advisable to always use mats or trivets for hot pans and dishes.

What are the dimensions of the roll?

The roll measures 67.5cm in width and 15m in length.

Do I need to seal around wet areas like sinks?

Yes, for optimal durability and to prevent water damage, it is highly recommended to seal around wet areas such as sinks and hob edges with silicone sealant.

Troubleshooting

Air bubbles or wrinkles appear during application

Gently lift the affected area of the film and reapply, using a squeegee to smooth out air bubbles. For stubborn bubbles, you can carefully prick them with a fine needle and press flat.

Film is not sticking well

Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and dried. Reheat the adhesive side slightly with a hairdryer and press firmly onto the surface.

Difficult to cut cleanly

Use a sharp, fresh craft knife or razor blade. A metal ruler can also help guide the blade for straight cuts.

Edges peeling up after application

Gently heat the edges with a hairdryer, then press down firmly. For persistent lifting, apply a suitable adhesive or seal the edges with silicone sealant.
