FAQs

How do I clean the vinyl wrap?

Wipe clean with a regular household cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Can I use it on curved surfaces?

Yes, use a hairdryer to make the vinyl more pliable for curved surfaces.

Is the vinyl wrap waterproof?

It is water-resistant. Sealant is recommended around sinks and hobs to prevent water damage.

How do I remove the vinyl wrap?

Use a hairdryer to soften the adhesive, then gently peel off the wrap. Use warm soapy water to remove any remaining residue.

What tools do I need for application?

You'll need a smoother, a measuring tape, a utility knife or scissors, and a hairdryer.

What is the heat resistance of the wrap?

It is heat resistant up to 70°C, so it is suitable for hot cups and plates.

What is the size of each roll?

Each roll measures 67.5cm x 2m, and the pack contains 3 rolls.

How do I deal with seams on a worktop?

Overlap the vinyl by a few millimeters when joining on worktops to allow for shrinkage.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles or creases appear during application.

Gently lift the vinyl wrap and reapply, smoothing out the bubbles with a smoother or soft cloth. For stubborn bubbles, use a pin to release the air and smooth the area.

Adhesion issues.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Increase the temperature of the area with a hairdryer. Press firmly with a smoother, paying close attention to edges.

Vinyl wrap lifting at the edges.

Use a hairdryer to gently heat the edges and press them down firmly. Consider applying sealant if the area is exposed to moisture.
