Welcome to Dreamy Vinyl!
Hello and welcome to Dreamy Vinyl.
What is Dreamy Vinyl? It is a home based vinyl lettering business.
What is vinyl lettering? In laymans terms vinyl is similar to contact paper, only lots more durable. We take a sheet of vinyl, load it into our cutter, design an image on the computer, and send it to the cutter. It cuts the pattern for us. Then the excess is weeded out and thrown away. You are left with white backing and your image. Tape is then applied over the top and rubbed. The backing is removed and you then apply to the surface you want it on. Rub again and remove the tape, and your image is stuck to your surface.
What surfaces can you use? You can apply it straight to your wall. As long as your paint has been dry for 30 days it should not harm the paint upon removal. You can use Glass, Tile, Mirrors… I love the stick figures for your car back window.
How long does it last? On a car it is set to last 4-6 years, indoor much longer. I have vinyl lettering on my car and it goes through snow, heat, rain, the carwash, and it is still there.
How do you remove it? On a wall you carefully pick up an edge and peel off. On glass, it works better if the glass is slightly warmer. You can carefully take a razor blade to lift and peel, or use your finger. if there is any residue left just windex and a paper towel removes it nicely.
What products do you use? We use mostly Oracal 531 vinyl and all wood is painted with Valspar or Olympic paints
