Troubleshooting
Air bubbles trapped under the vinyl
Use a felt edge smoother to push the air towards the edge. If a bubble is persistent, you can gently prick it with a fine needle and press the air out.
Vinyl not sticking well
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Reheat the vinyl slightly with a hairdryer and reapply pressure.
Difficulty in repositioning
Gently lift the edge and peel back slowly. If it feels too stuck, warm the area slightly with a hairdryer to loosen the adhesive.
Uneven finish or wrinkles
This usually occurs if the surface is not perfectly smooth or if the vinyl was applied too quickly. Try to lift the affected section and reapply more smoothly, ensuring tension is maintained.
Residue left after removal
Warm the residue with a hairdryer to soften it, then gently scrape it away. Clean the surface with warm, soapy water.
