FAQs
How many pads are in a pack?
Each pack contains 8 Diall Protection Pads.
What is the diameter of these pads?
These pads have a diameter of 25mm.
Can these be used on outdoor furniture?
These pads are primarily designed for indoor use. Exposure to moisture and varying temperatures outdoors may affect their adhesive and longevity.
What types of floors are these suitable for?
They are suitable for most indoor floor types, including wood, laminate, tile, and linoleum.
How do I clean the protection pads?
You can gently wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or soaking them.
Can I cut these pads to fit smaller legs?
While they are designed for 25mm legs, cutting them may affect the integrity of the felt and adhesive. It is best to use them as intended or find a size that fits without alteration.
Will the brown color transfer to my floor?
The brown dye is designed to be stable and should not transfer to your floor under normal use conditions.
Troubleshooting
Pads not sticking securely.
Ensure the furniture leg surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Remove any old adhesive or residue. Press firmly for at least 10 seconds.
Furniture still scratches the floor.
Check if the pads are centered on the furniture leg. Ensure the pad is not worn out or damaged. Verify that the pad size is adequate for the furniture leg's surface area.
Pads wear out quickly.
This may indicate the furniture is too heavy for the pads or is moved too frequently. Consider using heavier-duty protection or reducing the frequency of movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the base of the furniture leg is clean, dry, and free from dust or debris. Peel the backing off the felt pad and firmly press it onto the furniture leg. Hold for a few seconds to ensure good adhesion.
Compatibility: These pads are compatible with most types of furniture legs, particularly those with flat or slightly curved undersides. They work well on wood, laminate, tile, and linoleum flooring. Ensure the size of the pad is appropriate for the furniture leg it is being applied to.
Care: Periodically check the pads for wear and tear or loosening adhesion. Replace them when they become worn, dirty, or no longer stick effectively. Clean the pads with a dry or slightly damp cloth if they accumulate dust; avoid harsh chemicals.
