Wet vinyl installation.

Application vvivid vinyl wraps may be dry or wet applied. Vinyl flooring installation typically takes between 1 2 days to complete. Leave your vinyl flooring to acclimatise in the intended room for 24 hours. At tvd vinyl decals we evaluate both installation methods on all of our decals to determine and recommend the best method for our customers to use.

The wet method is usually recommended for the larger simple designs and any application where the application surface is recessed or embossed ie. Avoid joins in wet areas to prevent water from getting underneath the vinyl. This process prevents expanding and contracting after the flooring is installed. Use the support to remove any excess trim around the area.

Some types of vinyl flooring such as plank and tile need a few days to acclimate to the temperature and humidity in your home prior to the installation. Spray your surface and the bottom of the vinyl after removing the liner with water. 2 1 lay the vinyl wrap on the flat sur face without removing the lining. Turn off any underfloor heating.

Small vinyl lettering and decals should be installed dry. We recomend using the wet application method for flat surfaces only. Mix 1 or 2 drops of liquid dish soap in a spray bottle of water. Tape the piece to hold it in place.

The dry method as its name indicates does not use fluid but rather depends on the skill of the installer to correctly position the film.
