Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth.
- Measure and cut the vinyl film to the required size, using the grid on the reverse for guidance.
- Peel back a small section of the backing paper.
- Carefully align the vinyl onto the surface and begin to apply, smoothing from the center outwards with a felt edge smoother to push out air bubbles.
- For curved edges, a hairdryer can be used to gently warm the vinyl, making it more pliable.
- Trim any excess material with a sharp utility cutter.
Compatibility:
The vinyl can be applied to any flat, smooth surface, including wood, metal, glass, and laminate. It is not recommended for textured, uneven, or porous surfaces.
Care:
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Wipe up spills immediately to prevent staining.
- For use around sinks and hobs, apply a sealant along the edges to prevent water or dirt from getting underneath and lifting the vinyl.
- The film is heat resistant up to 70°C (158°F). Do not place hot pans directly on the surface.
