Did you know that you can get a nice vinyl finish on a curved surface? In this video tutorial we will show you how you can heat the vinyl with a hair dryer and stretch it to the shape of the surface. There is no need for wrinkles and pastry looking round edges. To get the hang of the technique, we recommend you to try a few times with an off cut.
The Amena Static Cling Window Film is easy to apply, looks great and it keeps the light flowing in. I would highly recommend it.
I'm thrilled with the result!
I needed a lighter and brighter kitchen with a minimal budget and somehow vinyl wrapping popped in my head.
The only thing that I wish could be charged is the sizes of the rolls. The vinyl I wanted only came in the 122cm wide roll which can be cut of course but there was a lot of pre-work.
If it's your first time doing vinyl wrapping, don't expect to be a perfectionist. I really wanted my long 3m bench to be all one piece and I had to adjust that expectation.
A couple of weeks in after completing the kitchen makeover and I continue to be thrilled. Spray and wipe is fine, I use chopping boards anyway and I now make a cuppa on a trivet, just to be safe. Watch the install videos and they are all over Tik Tok too. This is riding me over for a long time I think, it's come out better than what I thought.
Great samples sizes. Hard decision to make 😊
I ended up going for a colour that I had no intention on (never been a huge fan of marble!), but needed to get 10 types!
The only thing that would be handy is just to make the samples a wee bit bigger but in saying that, you can choose however many of one type you need.
When using the samples, don't forget to put a hot cuppa on it, spray and wipe and really "use" the sample to replicate normal kitchen life.
I ordered two lots of samples, first lot was to look at the varied types. And the second lot was to choose between 2 final choices.
Highly recommend samples first!
