Best Practices
Safety is our priority. Our Carpet Matte floor decals are protected with an anti-slip coating which is UL 410 certified, meaning that the level of slip resistance has been fully tested and identified as safe. The strong adhesive will also prevent your stickers from curling and peeling off. We guarantee that our Carpet Matte floors stickers are safe to use on all commercial carpets.
Keeping the condition of your carpet decal is key to ensure your message is highly visible for a long period of time. Ideally, a moderate traffic area is safest for the location of your carpet decal. The surface should be level and clean.
Once your carpet decal is applied, avoid any contact of solvents and oils. Scuffs and dirt on the decal can be cleaned with soap and water (daily cleaning with mild soap and water is acceptable).
Prep the Carpet
It is important to prep the carpet properly to increase the durability of your carpet decal. The carpet must be clean - you can do this by vacuuming the designated area first and then finish off by picking up any hair or particles that were not picked up by the vacuum.
*TIP: Use a brush to help pick up any hairs left behind.
Application
-
Locate the exact carpet decal location and ensure that it is in flat area.
-
Place the decal upside down on a flat surface and peel back 2-3 cm of the liner. Fold the liner back to expose 2-3 cm of the adhesive.
-
Return to the floor and use the lined part of the decal to place it on the designated area (right side up). Once in the right location, press the exposed edge of the decal to the floor starting from the middle. Continue pressing to the outer edges and ensure that no bubbles form.
-
Finish the application of the rest of the decal by removing 15-20 cm of the liner each time. Make sure to keep the decal close to the floor as possible and like the previous step, make sure to start from the center of the already applied edge and move towards the outer edges.
-
Finally, check that the entire decal has been applied properly and use your fingers to smooth out the entire surface one last time.
*TIP: We recommend doing the application after business hours as the decal needs to sit for at least 8 hours to reinforce the adhesion to the carpet and to minimize any lifting of the edges.
Removal
To remove the decal from the carpet, gently pull one edge or corner toward you at a 90 degree angle.
