In the shortest possible time, self-adhesive film will radically change the look of your furniture, room walls, bathroom, doors or windows, in general, everything that needs updating.

Self-adhesive film under the tree is in greatest demand among the population. It is easy to choose a classic pattern for pasting panels, an “apron” at the kitchen sink, interior doors, student tables, stools, cabinets. The color scheme of patterned “self-adhesives” extends from colorless stained glass to “metal”, “marble”, fantastic, floral, geometric motifs.
Getting started pasting furniture, windows, and anything else, use simple tips:
1. Preparation. Self-adhesive film is easy to use. Before starting gluing, it is necessary to prepare the basis: clean from dust and grease stains, if any. An uneven, rough surface is best covered with a primer.
2. Cutting. On the back side of the film, on its paper basis, a centimeter scale in the form of a grid is applied, which, of course, greatly facilitates the cutting process. Just cut off the desired fragment along the intended line.
3. Pasting. Carefully separate the paper base of centimeters by 5 from the film. Carefully apply the adhesive side to the prepared surface. We smooth the glued film from the middle to the edges with a soft rag. Then again we pull the paper from the back side of the "self-adhesive" to a small distance and continue the gradual gluing with smoothing.
Self-adhesive film for furniture is very convenient .
4. Bug fixes. Glued wrong? No problem! The self-adhesive film is easily adjusted, because the final gluing will occur after a few hours, so feel free to remove the decorative material and make an exact “fit”.
5. Advice. If the self-adhesive film is excessively sticky and difficult to work with, powder the surface to be treated with talcum powder, which will simplify the fitting process.
6. Bubbles formed on the film should be pierced with a pin and smooth the coating with a towel or soft, clean cloth.
7. The process of gluing metal surfaces and glass has some differences. The window (or metal) must be moistened with a solution of water and a small part of the detergent. From the prepared “pattern” from the film, completely remove the paper base and lay it on a damp surface. Next, the familiar process of smoothing with a sponge while expelling water from under the film.
8. Care. The glued surface should be wiped with a damp cloth. If the pollution is not washed in this way, you can use a solution of water and detergent or an alcohol solution.
