FAQs

How do I clean the vinyl film?

Wipe the surface with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Can I use this film on a textured surface?

The film works best on smooth, non-porous surfaces. Textured surfaces may not provide optimal adhesion.

Is the film waterproof?

The film has a wipe-clean surface, but it's not fully waterproof. Seal around sinks and wet areas with silicone sealant.

How do I remove the film?

Gently peel the film from the surface. The removable adhesive should not leave residue, but clean with soapy water if any is left.

What tools do I need for application?

A smoothing tool (squeegee), a sharp blade or utility knife, a measuring tape, and a clean cloth are recommended.

Can I apply this film to a curved surface?

The film can be applied to slightly curved surfaces. However, for complex curves, it might be challenging.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles appear during application

Lift the film and reapply, using a smoothing tool to push out the bubbles.

Edges are peeling up

Ensure edges are sealed properly. Use a hairdryer to reactivate the adhesive, then firmly press down.

Film is damaged by heat

Use hot pan mats and avoid placing items exceeding 70°C directly on the surface.
