Having some issues with wrinkles when sticking it on a piece of wood that i have drilled on a wall, can i use hair dryer to smooth them out?

What is the finish of the wood? That may be adversely affecting the adhesion of the dry erase board. The surface should be finished and as smooth as possible prior to applying the dry erase vinyl.

You could try but I doubt it will work well. I think that the idea is that you should really try to avoid wrinkles during initial application. The wrinkles that I had I simply pulled the sticker back and then re-applied. I can't stress enough that this is not a one person job. A few extra hands are going to make all the difference in the world.

Yes very. I found it best to damp the hair with water and use a curling wand. Let it cool in your hand and let it go. It doesn't tangle or rat up. When straightening you can do it dry.

I usually just apply before drying, of you do it after it might look oily, an I would use the flat iron perfector for straightening, it works better with a flat iron

I didn't, I just took it out of the package and put it on the bed. I guess if you are very fussy you could, but unless I get up close, I don't notice any wrinkles. I have bought 2 of these so far and plan to get one more.

I do hang king sheets on this dryer using the outside lines. They do not touch the ground but I only use one line per sheet so I can't spread the sheets out all the way. The sheets end up dry but wrinkled, but wrinkling doesn't bother me since I'm not a neat freak.

I just dry it on low, take it out right away and get it on the bed. Any wrinkles smooth out fairly quickly.

Use something to smooth it (ex. credit card, ruler, etc..) as you apply it. Maybe only pull a portion of the backing off if what you are applying is large. That will keep it from sticking together.

If you put the oil on damp hair and then dry and straighten it should be ok. Don't leave iron on a section to long.

I use a little portable iron on a low setting with no steam. Then whatever wrinkles stay, I use my photo editing software, GIMP, to edit out the rest. After I got the wrinkles out initially, I started storing them tightly rolled around a dowel, and wrapped in plastic, in between shoots. That also cuts down on the dust, etc that they inevitably collect. I also keep a fabric roller ( they are cheap at a dollar store) with my studio, to roll over them just before shooting. That cuts down on the background issues. My only complaint about the studio is the lights don't seem quite bright enough. Happy shooting! I use a little portable iron on a low setting with no steam.

Something in between. I've made fabric panels that are stiff enough they won't wrinkle but have a bit of a bend to them if you need that level of flexibility (e.g., they won't snap in half). The more coats, they stiffer it gets. Use a small roller if doing small sections, on a plastic tablecloth on the floor.

I do not know if washing would take the wrinkles out. Suggest ironing and it would be faster.

Shake the product up well and apply it with a soft cloth. You don't have to do anything else. It should be absorbed by the wood.

That is how I washed it but I but my dryer settings on low heat. I did not let it dry long and I hung it up slightly damp. Did not have any problems.

You'll want to make sure the laminate is feeding straight through the laminator, and crank slowly and steadily. You also don't want to try to laminate materials that are too thick, as that can also cause wrinkling.

I sprayed with water (misted it) then ironed it. Most wrinkles came out and what did not, eventually came out from the steam of the shower. Good- luck

We used a hair dryer to shape it. I am not sure if that would help or answered your question. It was trial n error for us. It turned out ok for us. Good luck!

I did not have a problem with the wrinkles. I thought they pressed out easily with a steam iron. Chocolate cake got smeared into mine and it came out in the first wash. I think it has pretty good stain release properties.
