This d-c-fix Self Adhesive Vinyl in Petrol Blue Glossy is designed for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners looking to quickly and affordably refresh surfaces like kitchen counters, furniture, and cabinets. Its key benefit is providing a stylish, durable, and easy-to-apply update without the need for major renovations. A minor caveat is its heat resistance limit, meaning it should not be used for surfaces in direct contact with hot pans. The vinyl features a glossy petrol blue finish, a practical cutting grid on the reverse, and is wipe-clean for easy maintenance.

Gently heat the vinyl with a hairdryer on a low to medium setting. This will soften the adhesive. Carefully peel the vinyl away from the surface starting at a corner. If residue remains, it can often be removed with a mild adhesive remover or warm soapy water.
The vinyl is heat resistant up to 70°C (158°F). It is suitable for general use but should not be placed in direct contact with hot pans, cooking surfaces, or items that generate significant heat, as this can cause damage or discoloration.
This product is designed for interior use. Prolonged exposure to UV rays and weather conditions can degrade the vinyl and affect its adhesive properties and appearance.
It adheres best to any flat, smooth, non-porous surface, including laminate, sealed wood, glass, metal, and painted walls. Avoid textured, rough, or unsealed surfaces.
Apply slowly, working from the center outwards. Use a felt edge smoother or a soft cloth to push out air as you go. If small bubbles appear, you can prick them with a fine needle and smooth them down.
The product description does not specify the exact dimensions of the roll. Please refer to the product packaging or retailer for specific measurements.
Color representation can vary slightly depending on screen settings and lighting conditions. The glossy finish will enhance the vibrancy of the petrol blue color.
Use a fine pin to prick the bubble and then gently smooth the air out with a felt edge smoother or a credit card wrapped in a soft cloth. If persistent, you may need to carefully peel back the affected area and reapply.
Ensure the surface is thoroughly clean, dry, and smooth. Reheat the vinyl gently with a hairdryer and press firmly, especially on edges. Check that the backing paper was fully removed.
Gently warm the vinyl with a hairdryer on a low setting. This makes it more pliable and easier to stretch around corners and edges. Hold in place until it cools and adheres.
This often happens when trying to stretch too quickly or on sharp corners without sufficient heat. Warm the vinyl and work slowly, applying gentle pressure.
Wipe immediately with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a soft cloth with a mild, non-abrasive detergent and water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Setup: Ensure the surface you are applying the vinyl to is clean, dry, smooth, and free from dust or grease. Measure and cut the vinyl using the grid on the reverse. Peel back a small section of the backing paper and carefully align the vinyl with the edge of your surface. Slowly peel away the backing paper while smoothing the vinyl onto the surface with a felt edge smoother or a soft cloth, working from the center outwards to remove air bubbles. For curved areas, a hairdryer on a low setting can help the vinyl stretch and adhere.
Compatibility: This vinyl adheres best to any flat, non-porous surface. It is suitable for laminate, wood, glass, metal, and painted surfaces. Avoid applying to rough, textured, or freshly painted (allow paint to cure fully) surfaces, as adhesion may be compromised.
Care: To maintain the glossy finish and durability, wipe spills immediately with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild detergent and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbers, which can damage the surface. The vinyl is heat resistant up to 70°C; keep away from direct heat sources like hot pans or stovetops.
