Application & Adhesion Issues

Can vinyl skins damage devices?

No — good vinyl is safe.

Quality vinyl

• Does not scratch
• Leaves no glue residue
• Protects from daily wear

Damage usually happens only with cheap vinyl or sharp removal tools.

Why are the edges peeling after application?

Edges peel when surface preparation is poor.

Fix

• Clean the device with isopropyl alcohol
• Press edges firmly after application
• Use mild heat to activate the adhesive

Why is vinyl not sticking properly?

Poor adhesion happens on difficult surfaces.

Common causes

• Dust or oil
• Rubberized or textured finishes

Fix

• Clean thoroughly
• Use cast vinyl with stronger adhesive
• Apply gentle heat for better bonding

Can vinyl shrink over time?

Yes — low-grade vinyl can shrink.

Fix

• Use cast vinyl only
• Do not overstretch during application
• Heat-seal edges lightly after installation
