Crafter's Companion

2011-06-26T20:07:41Z

Don’t throw your die-cutting mats away!

Renew them over and over again with our

revolutionary craft sprays!

Stick Away adhesive remover melts away any

excess adhesive.

Stick & Spray temporary adhesive is then

applied to renew your mats.

Step 1

Lay down newspaper or any other disposable surface material. This will

be used to catch any excess adhesive or remover during the renewal

process. Make sure it is at least twice the size of you electronic cutting

mat. Lay down your cutting mat onto this surface.

Step 2

Spray a generous layer of our Stick Away Spray Adhesive Remover onto

the mat. Be sure to get the entire surface wet. Let this sit for about 30

seconds.

Step 3

Grab an old credit card, membership card or rigid material with a straight

edge and scrape down the entire mat. You’ll notice the old adhesive peels

off easily during this proces. Go over the entire mat as you push any of

the old adhesive buildup to one end and off the mat. Repeat step 2 and 3

if necessary until all adhesive buildup is gone.

Step 4

Wipe down your mat with a paper towel or cotton rag to remove any last

bits of adhesive or Stick Away Spray.

Step 5

Apply masking tape or similiar to cover any part of your mat that does not

come in contact with paper during normal operation of your die cutting

machine. Basically, any part of your mat that does not need to be sticky.

Step 6

Apply a thin layer of Stick & Spray over the entire surface of the mat. You

should notice that it is hard to see where you have sprayed. You should

not have a thick layer of spray on your mat, as only a thin layer of temporary adhesive will do the trick. Let this dry for about 5-10 minutes and

then peel off the masking tape. Your mat is ready to use!

Money Saving Tip

When it comes time to renew your mats again, you may repeat steps 5

through 6 for a few uses without the need to remove the excess adhesive.

Once you notice a buildup of adhesive it is recommended that you complete all of the steps to completely renew your mat once again.
