Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Surface Preparation: Clean the surface thoroughly. Remove any dirt, grease, or old adhesive. Ensure it is dry.
- Cutting: Measure and cut the vinyl to the required size, using the grid on the backing paper as a guide.
- Application: Peel off a small section of the backing paper and apply the vinyl, smoothing out any bubbles with a smoother or soft cloth. Gradually peel away the backing as you apply.
- Curved Surfaces: Use a hairdryer to make the vinyl more pliable when applying to curved surfaces.
- Sealing (Essential for Wet Areas): Apply silicone sealant around sinks and hobs to prevent water from seeping underneath.

Care:

- Wipe spills immediately to prevent staining.
- Use worktop savers to protect the vinyl from sharp objects and scratches.
- Keep hot pans at least 12 inches away from naked flames.
