FAQs
Can this border be used in a bathroom?
Yes, but ensure the surface is well-ventilated and dry before application. Direct contact with water should be avoided.
How do I remove the border?
Gently peel the border from the wall. You may use a hairdryer on a low setting to warm the adhesive and make it easier to remove.
What tools do I need?
A measuring tape, a sharp knife or scissors, a smoothing tool (or a cloth), and a level are recommended.
Can I paint over the border?
It is not recommended, as the paint might not adhere well to the vinyl surface.
Is the border washable?
Yes, it can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
What if I make a mistake during installation?
You can carefully peel the border back and reposition it, but be mindful of the adhesive's strength and avoid stretching the material.
Troubleshooting
Border is not adhering properly.
Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Apply firm pressure during installation, especially at edges.
Air bubbles are appearing under the border.
Slowly peel back the border and smooth it out again, using a smoothing tool or cloth to remove air bubbles.
The pattern is not aligning correctly.
Carefully align the pattern repeats (every 6.5cm) during installation, and use a level to ensure straight lines.
