Is Fablon vinyl waterproof?

It is water-resistant, but prolonged exposure to water may affect its adhesive properties.

Can I apply Fablon vinyl over existing wallpaper?

It's best applied to smooth, clean surfaces. Applying it over wallpaper may not give the best results due to texture and adhesion issues.

Lift the vinyl gently from the affected area, use a pin to release the air, and smooth it back down with a squeegee.

Vinyl is not sticking properly.

Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Use a hairdryer to gently warm the vinyl and reactivate the adhesive.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Clean the surface thoroughly. Ensure it's free from dust, grease, and moisture. Measure the surface and cut the Fablon vinyl slightly larger than needed.
  2. Application: Peel a small section of the backing and apply the adhesive side to the surface, smoothing it out with a squeegee as you go. Work slowly to prevent bubbles. For corners and curves, gently warm the vinyl with a hairdryer to make it more pliable.
  3. Compatibility: Fablon vinyl works best on smooth, non-porous surfaces such as wood, metal, plastic, and glass.
  4. Care: To clean, wipe the surface with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing. Protect from direct heat sources to maintain the adhesive's integrity.
