You cut it with a margin, position it by peeling back about 5 cm of the adhesive liner and fix it with a plastic squeegee, working from the centre out to the edges. On curved furniture, the film is warmed before it is stretched. Source: Decoblu's iNfeel installation guide (March 2026) and the manufacturer's conditions in the iNfeel Vol.18 catalogue. Last updated: 15 October 2026 ## Before you start - The manufacturer recommends fitting it with the air and the surface between 20 and 25 °C, and never below 11 °C. - Store it somewhere cool and dry and fit it within a year of purchase. In cold weather the film can crack when handled. - On wood or metal, the manufacturer says to sand with 180-grit paper and apply the dedicated iNfeel primer. ### Tools - Plastic squeegee - Cutter - Heat gun - Gloves ### Materials - iNfeel film - Primer, on plasterboard or walls not painted for years ## Walls and flat surfaces 1. Check that the wall is clean and smooth. Fill any dips and sand them afterwards. On plasterboard or walls that have not been painted for years, apply a coat of primer. 2. Measure the height and width of the surface and cut the iNfeel 4 cm longer than the height, as a margin for any unevenness. 3. Mark several reference points along the surface. Start on the side opposite the door, so the overlaps cannot be seen as you walk in. 4. Peel back about 5 cm of the adhesive liner, place the film on the marks and press lightly, so it can be repositioned if needed. 5. Once it is in place, fix it with the plastic squeegee at 45°, always from the centre outwards, peeling the liner away as you go. Press firmly on edges, corners and joints. 6. Go over the edges and corners again with the squeegee and trim the excess in a single cut with the cutter, using the edge of the squeegee as a guide. ## Furniture and curved surfaces 1. Measure the surface and cut the film with a margin of about 10 cm all round. 2. Warm the whole curve evenly, keeping the heat moving and at least about 10 cm away. 3. Stretch the film zone by zone and in order, steadily and gradually, so it does not distort or wrinkle. 4. Wrap 2 to 5 cm onto the underside as well, so the covering holds more firmly. 5. Trim the excess film at the back. ## Joints between sheets 1. Lay the second sheet over the first until the pattern lines up or, if there is no pattern to match, with an overlap of about 3 mm. Carry on the same way with the rest. ## Corners and edges 1. Cut the material and peel the liner off the part that goes on the larger face. Position the film and press with the squeegee from the centre outwards. 2. Form the corner by pressing along it with the pad of your thumb. Gloves are recommended for this. 3. Peel off the rest of the liner and carry on as for a flat surface. Trim the excess carefully, holding the cutter at an angle. ## Doors 1. Remove the moving parts, such as handles and hinges. Wipe the door with a damp cloth, especially anywhere there may be grease, and dry it completely. 2. Sand the door, so it still closes properly and the covering lasts. ## How to remove it iNfeel is not designed to be peeled off: its adhesive grips strongly on almost any surface. Where possible, the guide recommends applying a new layer over it rather than removing it. If not: 1. Make lengthwise cuts about 20 cm apart, without damaging the surface underneath. 2. Warm it with a heat gun, starting at the bottom and evenly over the whole surface, to soften the adhesive. 3. Pull each strip away gradually, from the bottom up, with a steady zigzag movement. ## Questions **What surfaces can iNfeel go on?** On any indoor surface that is dry, clean and smooth: furniture, wardrobes, doors, walls, kitchens, bathrooms and lifts, according to the installation guide. **Does iNfeel have to be removed to renew it?** No. Where possible, the guide recommends applying a new layer over it rather than removing the existing one. **At what temperature should it be fitted?** The manufacturer recommends the air and the surface to be between 20 and 25 °C, and never below 11 °C. **Does Decoblu fit the film?** No. Decoblu sells the material.
