How to wrap a side by side refrigerator

Installation Process

1. Cutting & Aligning the Wrap:

   • The vinyl wrap is cut to fit the fridge precisely.

   • Small markers were printed on the wrap to indicate door corners, ensuring correct alignment.

2. Applying the Wrap:

   • The vinyl is installed left to right (instead of top to bottom) to accommodate slight curves in the door.

   • Primer 94 was applied around edges to prevent lifting.

   • Squeegees and a tacking strip were used for a smooth application.

3. Dealing with Textured Surfaces & Seals:

   • Inside sections were tested to see if the wrap would adhere properly.

   • The seal around the door was carefully navigated, either by tucking in the vinyl or cutting precisely.

4. Handling Air Bubbles:

   • If bubbles appeared, they were pressed out manually or popped with a pin.

   • The vinyl used has air-release technology, making adjustments easier.

5. Cutting & Finishing Edges:

   • Excess vinyl was cut near the door seals for a clean look.

   • A heat gun was used to activate the adhesive, improving durability.

Challenges with Ice Maker Cutouts

• Wrapping areas around ice makers can be difficult.

• If the ice maker isn’t removable, it’s best to pre-cut the vinyl to match the shape.

Final Results & Longevity
