FAQs

How do I clean the d-c-fix vinyl wrap?

Wipe clean with standard household cleaners. Promptly wipe away any staining spills.

Can I use d-c-fix on a textured surface?

It is recommended to use it on smooth surfaces for optimal adhesion and appearance.

How heat resistant is the d-c-fix vinyl wrap?

It is heat resistant up to 70°C, so it's suitable for hot cups and plates but should be kept away from direct flames.

Is the adhesive permanent?

No, the adhesive is designed to be removable. Use a hairdryer and warm, soapy water for any remaining residue.

Can I reposition the vinyl wrap after applying it?

Yes, the water-based, low-tack adhesive allows for repositioning during application for a bubble-free finish.

What tools do I need for application?

You'll need a smoother, a cutting tool, a measuring tape, and a worktop saver. A hairdryer can also be useful for curved surfaces.

What surfaces is the d-c-fix vinyl wrap suitable for?

It's suitable for smooth, non-porous surfaces such as wood, laminate, and metal.

Troubleshooting

Air bubbles appear after application.

Lift the vinyl wrap gently and reapply, smoothing out the bubbles with a smoother or a soft cloth. Use a needle to pierce larger bubbles and smooth them out.

The vinyl wrap doesn't stick properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. Use a hairdryer to reactivate the adhesive if necessary.

The edges are peeling.

Trim the edges neatly and apply more pressure. Use a hairdryer to reactivate the adhesive and seal the edges.

Difficult to apply on curved surfaces.

Use a hairdryer on a low setting to soften the vinyl and make it more pliable. Stretch the vinyl carefully around the curves, working slowly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
