d-c-fix Self-Adhesive Film - 346-8027

This product is awesome. You get a ton of the paper in one roll. I had more than enough to do the project I wanted it for plus some for more projects of the same size. I probably have enough to do two more of these desks the same way. It went on fairly easy, but easier with two people. It’s very smooth and shiny and does make my desk look like a marble top. Also much easier to clean and wipe down than the previous painted wood. Some tips: -the best way to apply it is to first cut it to fit, and lay the precut paper across the surface you wish to put it on. Have someone else present on the center of it to hold it in place. On one end, peel back about 2-3 inches of paper from the backing. Press it on from the middle of the edge, and press out the bubbles towards the sides. Now with the backing still on the vast majority of the paper, roll up the other end of the contact paper upside down. So the roll is coming back from the top.. does that make sense? Now as you pull off the backing slowly, i roll the rest and smooth out the bubbles as you go. -leave a little extra on the edges to wrap around and underneath -use a blow dryer for the corners and any part of the contact paper that doesn’t have great adhesion. It helps soften the vinyl and smooth out the corners -fold over the edge on the back first. Slit the corners with scissors, then fold down the sides. Then fold down the front last.

I bought my first house this past summer and the kitchen counters were an awful 80's laminate with scratches and chips. I wanted a cheap DIY solution until I could save up to replace the counter tops and found this high quality contact vinyl film. I would definitely recommend having two people take on a project like this because the backing on this vinyl is very adhesive so it makes it difficult to maneuver it around and get it to lay properly when you're trying to do it on your own. But you can easily peel it back up and readjust it if necessary. You have to be mindful not to put hot items directly on the counter with this product because it will bubble and get ruined, but this is a great temporary option for renters or people like me who need to save up and figure out exactly what they want to do. Lastly, I recommend using some caulk along the edges of the counter and around the sink when you're done placing the vinyl - it prevents water from getting under it and prematurely coming up. I'm so happy with how it turned out and recommend it to anyone looking for a temporary facelift!

Semi Hard to use and easier to work with in smaller sections very slowly. Have patience and you won’t regret it. Completely changed the look of my kitchen. Red and yellow stains this contact paper but it’s removable with a drop or two of bleach. With that being said I clean my kitchen like I wash my face so stains don’t have a long time to set. It’s thick enough but you will mess it up eventually if you cut on top of it. We sat a large cutting board on the counter and have had no problems. This pic is about a month after putting it on. Watch you tube videos for help. I didn’t use windex or water. I have a few air bubbles but they don’t bother me, big ones I poked a hold in. I Do not regret this purchase.

great way to DIY a marble counter. I purchased this to put over my island because I did not want to spend the money for a new countertop. I thought I measured correctly but turns out I did not. I ended up using small tiny pieces to fill in the rest. Make sure to measure a couple of times and maybe get someone else to double check the measurements. Also, its basically a huge screen-protector. You might need another person to help you install this! But overall, it looks great.

Love this stuff. I removed my 3 year old white marble peel and stick counter top because it had started to get pretty ragged...I liked the look when it was new but it didn't age well and it was difficult to get the seams to not be visible when applying. This granite style was much easier to apply and the edges blended perfectly - you can actually overlap the pieces and you cannot see a seam. Very renter friendly - comes up easily with a hot hair dryer.

Had a nice glossy look to it. Sticks well when applied. It has a digitized look to me when applied from the way the design is printed. Overall not the worst thing I’ve seen by far but not what I was really looking for hence the 3 stars

An easy way to spice up a room without having to fork out a bunch of money. I used this in my kitchen and it lights up the room. Fairly easy to install, but does take a little time. I recommend watching a video on how to install contact paper before attempting if you've never done it before. It's a lot like installing a non-glass screen protector on a smart phone, just on a larger scale. Take your time to remove the bubbles as you go and try to make sure you get it where you want it on the first stick (you can remove it or adjust it a bit as you install, but you run the risk of damaging the paper by causing creases and bubbles that might not go away). A lot of videos recommend using a credit card to remove the bubbles, I found a kit on Amazon for around $5 with an exacto knife and 2 different paddles to help smooth out the bubbles. I feel using that was better than a credit because the edge has a felt strip that seems to not be as rough on the paper while still getting the job done. I would also suggest buying more than you need for the job so you won't come up short, need more if a mistake is made, and just to store for later in case you need to replace a section. All in all, a very inexpensive way to upgrade the look of countertops or whatever you decide to use it on. Everyone who has seen it on our countertops so far has not realized it's contact paper until we tell them.

I had a yellow/tan plasticky counter before and here it is now with the contact paper on. Probably the cheapest dramatic change that I've done to my reno house so far. Obviously it doesn't feel like granite but it really makes the kitchen look 100 times better. You can't even tell until it's a sticker until you're right next to it. It was very easy to apply but you have to use something to push out air bubbles when you put it on. I just rubbed it with the edge of a credit card as I put it down. I used a razor to cut the edges and there are no weird tears or jagged lines. Around the sink was the most difficult but I ended up cutting it into 2 pieces and having them meet in the middle. It probably could have been done in one piece but I wanted to get it done quickly.

La pellicola e si ottima qualità ed è plastificata! Ottimo prodotto

Muy buena copia del ladrillo.

Ich lese von anderen Käufern wie toll die Klebekraft von diesen SELBSTKLEBENDEN Dekorfolien ist und frage mich ob ich zu blöd bin damit zu arbeiten. Ich habe 8 verschiedene Dekore gekauft, aber es klappt mit keinem. Ich bastle inzwischen seit 40 Jahren mit Dekorfolien, am liebsten mit de-c-fix. Aber jetzt hält die Folie auf keinem mir gewähltem Untergrund. Ich beklebe Schachteln, Boxen, Dosen usw. Aber ohne doppelseitiges Klebeband geht gar nix. Sehr, sehr Schade!!!!!

Easy to install I recovered a counter in our motor home ... I ran out as you’ll se in the pic but another is on order it’s very forgiving and you can’t see the seams do to wood grain detail.

Die Folie ließ sich sehr gut aufkleben.
