Metal FX Brushed Copper Contact Paper, 18" x 6'

Metal FX Brushed Copper Contact Paper, 18' x 6'I ordered this product for the special purpose of covering the door of a small refrigerator in our RV. This did not work as it is impossible to get it on without wrinkles. We tried various ways but finally gave up. I think for smaller projects it would be fine. And it has a nice copper look. Very metalic. It seems to stretch as you work with it so you need to get it layed on correctly the first time with no wrinkles. It didn't work for our application.

I purchased 2 rolls to cover the front of a fridge. The measurements were accurate and I had no trouble getting in on without bubbles (I used a level as I unrolled it down to make sure it was even and bubble-free). The first roll went on beautifully! I was so excited. Then I went to open the 2nd roll and there was a sticker on the roll making part of the 18" x 6" no good. Add to it, that specific roll was all crinkly and damaged looking. I was not happy. I added a few of the copper tiles down the center seam to make the differences seem intentional but I wish that was not necessary. I think for small projects, if you get the right roll, all will be well. I added 2 rows of those copper tiles above the stove and sink and the overall look of the kitchen is much brighter with an art-deco feel.

Use it on a desk I created, Southwestern style. Copper contact in center writing area,

deep teal or turquoise enameled border, with thunderbird cutouts of the copper in corners.

The copper contact is only metallic paper. So naturally it scratches. But it lasted, looking good, for

3, 4 years, surviving books and other stuff scraped along surface as the desk

is well used. I also polish it with furniture oil to renew shine (Avon skin-so-soft works great).

Now looking to buy again to renew the old stuff. Just love it. Oh also

use it to cover the top of a little old metal step stool in kitchen. Will be renewing that

too, but again for use and abuse, lasted a long time looking good.

I purchased the brushed copper contact paper to cover some old Tupperware canisters so they'd go better with my new kitchen cabinets and drawer pulls. It was easy to use, but I did discover that I needed to be very careful with anything sharp, as the paper was easily scratched. I have yet to use the canisters enough to evaluate how well this fix holds up, but so far, it's far less expensive than buying new canisters (if I could find them in copper!)
