It boasts a 5-star rating for adhesion, opacity, lightfastness, shrinkage, and durability. The low-tack, water-based adhesive allows for repositioning during application, making it simple to apply to clean, smooth, flat surfaces. Air bubbles can be eliminated by smoothing from the center outwards. Mistakes can be corrected by peeling back and reapplying. The film is heat resistant up to 70°C, suitable for hot cups and plates, but not hot pans. Keep at least 12 inches away from open flames and use a worktop saver for cutting. Clean with a regular household cleaner and wipe up stain-prone spills immediately. This non-permanent DIY solution is ideal for tenants and landlords seeking a budget-friendly update for kitchens or for upcycling furniture. The film is fully removable; use a hairdryer to soften the adhesive and warm soapy water for any residue. For best results, use a dc fix smoother, the grid on the backing paper as a cutting guide, and apply sealant around sinks and hobs. Lightly spray glossy surfaces like glass and appliances with water before application, and use a hairdryer on curved surfaces to make the vinyl more pliable. The pack contains 3 rolls, each measuring 67.5cm x 2m.
