This d-c-fix Glossy Black Sticky Back Vinyl Film is for homeowners and renters seeking an affordable and easy way to update interior surfaces. Its key benefit is providing a smooth, glossy, modern look with a simple peel-and-stick application. A caveat is the need for proper surface preparation and heat/water protection to ensure longevity.

Use a sharp craft knife or scissors and a ruler for straight lines. Measure and mark the film on the non-adhesive backing side before cutting.
This product is designed for interior use only and is not recommended for outdoor applications due to potential UV and weather damage.
With proper application and care, the adhesive is designed for long-term use indoors. Factors like temperature, humidity, and surface preparation can affect longevity.
Glossy surfaces can show fingerprints more readily than matte finishes. Regular wiping with a soft, damp cloth will help keep it clean.
For small bubbles, you can sometimes prick them with a fine needle and gently smooth the air out. For larger bubbles, it's best to carefully peel back the film to that point and re-apply, smoothing as you go.
It is best applied to smooth, solid surfaces. Applying over textured wallpaper may result in an uneven finish and poor adhesion. The wallpaper should be removed and the wall prepared first.
The d-c-fix Glossy Black Sticky Back Vinyl Film measures 90cm wide by 5m long.
Gently lift the affected section of the film and re-apply, smoothing out the air with a squeegee or cloth.
Ensure the surface is thoroughly clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Re-apply pressure with a squeegee.
This can happen in high-moisture areas. Ensure edges are sealed with silicone sealant, especially around sinks and wet zones. Trim excess material for a clean finish.
Gently warm the film with a hairdryer on a low setting, which can soften the adhesive, making removal easier. Peel slowly and carefully.
Setup: Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth before application. Peel back a small section of the backing paper and carefully align the film. Smooth it down with a squeegee or cloth, gradually peeling the backing paper as you go. If bubbles appear, gently lift the film and re-apply. For large surfaces, overlapping edges slightly can provide a better seal.
Compatibility: This film is best suited for smooth, non-porous surfaces such as painted wood, metal, glass, and laminate. It may not adhere well to rough, textured, or uneven surfaces.
Care: Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent for daily cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scourers. Use mats for hot pans and during food preparation. Seal any edges around wet areas (sinks, hobs) with silicone sealant to prevent moisture ingress.
