What Is A Removable Vinyl?
Removable vinyl is a craft film with a low-tack adhesive that easily peels off. It is available in different colors and finishes giving you a lot of room for creativity. It is used for temporary, indoor applications and does not leave residue or damage the surface when peeled off. You can apply it to almost anything that has a smooth, clean, dry, and flat surface, such as glass, ceramics, walls, wood, and more. It cannot withstand harsh weather conditions and so does not last long when applied outdoors.
