Where
can I apply Peel
& Stick
appliques?
Peel & Stick
appliques work on any smooth, dry and clean surface: walls, mirrors, refrigerators,
laptop covers, tiles, glass, lockers, furniture, accessories, etc.. even
automotive surfaces!
Painted
wall tips.
Prior to applying onto painted walls: clean wall and make sure it is
dry
Newly painted walls: it is recommended to let the paint “cure” for
10 to 15 days prior to applying Peel & Stick
appliques. Even if new paint feels dry,
it may still need to settle and completely cure.
Not recommended on “Orange Peel” textured walls
Peel & Stick
appliques will not work over cinder blocks or very textured and porous
surfaces.
Not recommended over wallpaper or delicate surfaces
Bathroom tips
Peel & Stick
appliques can be applied onto tiles as long as surface is clean and completely
dry during installation. Make sure the design element does not overlap
grout area as water could filter under and compromise the adhesive.
Peel & Stick
appliques can be applied onto shower walls, as long as they are placed
tightly onto the surface so water cannot reach under the design element.
Once applied, Peel & Stick
appliques will not move even if sprayed by shower.
DO NOT! Place Peel & Stick
appliques items in dishwater or microwave.
DO NOT! Place Peel & Stick
appliques over rugs, fabrics and any other textiles. Textile
fibers may stick to the adhesive and ruin the product.
Do not place at the bottom or inside the tub. Water could filter beneath
the design element too easily and would compromise the adhesive.
NOTE: In all applications, it is always best to test Peel & Stick
appliques in an
inconspicuous area. If the surface is textured, performance could be
seriously diminished. Make sure surface is clean of dust and dirt or
you may compromise the adhesive and ruin the product.
Will
Peel & Stick
appliques leave a sticky residue?
Peel & Stick
appliques use a specially formulated adhesive that never migrates onto
the surface and therefore leaves no marks and no residue. Beware of cheaper
products that use acrylic adhesives!
My
item did not stick! What went wrong?
Please carefully read the Where Can I Apply Peel & Stick
appliques section prior
to installation to see if all criteria is met.
How
do I remove air bubbles?
When applying, make sure you start from one side (for the border) or
the top (for the appliqués) of each element. Keep the rest of
the element away from the wall/surface. Slowly go down over the design
with your hand and smooth the element onto surface (and press the bubbles
out as you go). Once applied you should be able to move any remaining
bubbles out by pressing/smoothing them out of the element. If the problem
persists (this would only happen with the giant appliqués), you
can punch a tiny (invisible to the eye) hole with a pin to push the air
out.
Can
I re-use Peel & Stick
appliques months later?
Even years! Simply replace the design elements onto the liner/backer
and keep your Peel & Stick
appliques in a dust free and room temperature environment.
You can reapply them for the next season. Or better yet - check out the
new designs! Decorating with Peel & Stick
appliques is so easy and affordable that
you can change your décor as often as you wish!
