d-c-fix 346-0010 Decorative Self-Adhesive Film, Glossy Black, 17" x 78" Roll

To all the people that say it doesn't stick, you need a blow dryer to activate the glue! I had a similar issue but once I warmed up the vinyl is stuck securely to the painted wood surface. The fact that it wasn't sticky at first was great because it let me reposition and work in segments rather than getting wrinkles and needing to unstick/restick a bunch of times. It turned out great! Way easier to clean than painted wood.

I work in a public school, so my office furniture often leaves something to be desired. One of my filing cabinets was looking pretty dingy and had rust spots on the top, and I got it into my head that it needed to be hot pink. This was the only contact paper I could find that was the right color, so I bought and I am now in love with it. It is glossy and beautiful and stuck super well and I had very little trouble sticking it to my filing cabinet. I used two rolls for this project (full disclosure, the wood grain contact paper on the top is from the Dollar Tree). I did it a few weeks ago and I haven't worried for a second that it will scuff or tear; the vinyl itself seems thick and durable. I will definitely buy this again when I have time to revamp the set of drawers I keep my anchor charts in!

Having tried to paint the back of precious IKEA bookcases, I wasn't about to go through that again. I bought this contact paper on a whim and am so happy I did! It cut easily, and even when overlapping, the seam is invisible. Even when I measured wrong, I found it extremely easy to just put an extra piece on top and TA-DA, no issues. It took me a few days to complete my project, mostly due to procrastination more than complexity, but the finished project is gorgeous and I have no doubts this will last until I get bored and order another color, lol

Adheres well and looks nice! I will say this stuff is pricey. You can get much cheaper adhesive vinyl exactly like this from the craft sections of stores, specifically vinyl for circuit machines. It basically does the same thing and turns out I could’ve paid $5 for redoing my dresser surface. Also, this stuff scratches pretty easily. I used a plastic card for application and it screwed it up pretty bad upon closer inspection. Not the easiest to apply either? It’s super easy to accidentally mess up removing the backing and then it gets all bent up and cannot be fixed. I advise some major caution and patience when applying.

Paper wrinkles easily and is very thin, cheaply made. The wrinkles do not come out. Would not recommend or purchase again.This paper is only good for lining a kitchen cabinet or drawer. Not good for any special projects!

I used this on the top of a bedroom dresser that was discolored and in poor shape. At first when I unrolled it and peeled some back I was concerned it wasn't going to stick. It didn't seem very sticky. I applied it slowly, carefully smoothing out the air bubbles as I urolled it. It didn't stick to itself, but stuck to my dresser top perfectly! I left an overlap on all sides that I cut off later with an exacto blade. This method kept me from having to place the one long strip exactly straight, which would have been really difficult. I love the results! The red is nicer, less bright, than my photo shows.

I covered my fridge freezer. One door is near perfect, went on great, easy, basically no air bubbles. The second door....... I messed up! I messed up bad. This is not a product that can be rushed. One roll was the entire of one door. So personally i think it was a big job for my first time. Take your time, send your children away and turn the AC on. I will be getting another roll to redo the one door because it’s 100% worth it. You definitely need a super sharpe knife and a rubber smoothing tool. I gave it 3 stars to install but I think that’s more to do with me than the product.

I bought this to cover my desk which is an old easel and had a lot of dried paint marks which made the desk bumpy. I was hoping it would cover the paint and also be thick enough to smooth my desk out. Although it's definitely made my desk smoother and look a lot better, it still a little bumpy. It's also kind of narrow. I had to use two sheets (which I had to cut) and put them both on. This is partly my fault, I should of looked at the dimensions. Also, when I was attempting (I failed) to put the second sheet on and readjust it, I had a hard time taking it off and on again. Eventually it rolled over on itself and now my desk is 3/4 covered. But it seems to stick very well and it looks great.
