Instruction for Magnets:

Before Use:

If your decal has arrived in a roll or appears creased, lay in a warm place on a flat surface for a few hours or overnight. A useful tip is to place on the warm side of a fridge or freezer.

Precautions for Use:

• Do not apply magnetic sheet to newly painted surfaces, especially non factory applied finishes.

Storage:

Magnetic decals are best kept by placing on a flat surface in a cool dry environment. Applying excessive heat can reduce the magnetic properties of the material. ...
