  3. Application: Peel off a small section of the backing and apply the vinyl, smoothing out any bubbles as you go. Work slowly and use a smoothing tool (e.g. a plastic smoother or a credit card).
  4. Trimming: Once applied, trim the edges with a sharp knife or a craft knife.

Compatibility: The vinyl wrap is compatible with most smooth, non-porous surfaces, including wood, metal, and plastic.

Care: Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing.
