FAQs

How do I clean the glides?
Wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting
Glides are not sticking properly.
Ensure the furniture leg and the application surface are completely clean and dry before applying. Remove any old residue. Press firmly for at least 10 seconds.
Furniture still difficult to move.
Check that glides are applied evenly on all legs. Ensure the glides are clean and free of debris. For very heavy items, multiple glides or professional sliders might be more effective.
Glides are peeling off after a short period.
The surface may not have been adequately prepared. Re-clean the furniture leg and reapply the glide, ensuring firm and consistent pressure. Avoid excessive lateral force immediately after application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the furniture leg and the floor surface where the glide will be applied are clean, dry, and free of dust or debris.
- Peel the protective backing from the self-adhesive side of the furniture glide.
- Firmly press the glide onto the bottom of the furniture leg, holding for a few seconds to ensure a secure bond.
- Repeat for all legs of the furniture piece.
Compatibility:
These glides are compatible with most furniture types, including chairs, tables, armchairs, sofas, and stools. They are suitable for use on various floor surfaces such as hardwood, laminate, tile, and linoleum. Ensure the furniture leg is relatively flat to allow for maximum contact with the adhesive.
Care:
Wipe the glides with a dry or slightly damp cloth if they accumulate dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as this can damage the adhesive or the glide material. If a glide becomes loose, it can be removed carefully and a new one applied if the original surface is still clean.
