3M Post-it Flex Write Surface Quick Start Manual

Recommended Surfaces:
The Post-it Flex Write Surface is designed to stick to a variety of painted drywall and steel surfaces, glass, finished wood, and existing whiteboards or
®
chalkboards. Not recommended for use on unprimed drywall, cinder block, brick, wallpaper, heavily textured or delicate surfaces. Use on horizontal
surfaces, such as desks or tables, increases the likelihood of product damage. Extra care must be taken to avoid scratching the film surface. Scratches
can result in permanent staining, and could reduce the lifetime of the product. Consult Use and Maintenance Procedures.
Surface Preparation:
Surfaces to be covered must be clean, smooth, dry and structurally sound—must not contain loose paint, nail heads, nicks, gouges or other surface
imperfections. For best results, gently clean the surface to be covered with water and a soft cloth and allow to dry for 10 minutes. If walls have been
recently painted, allow paint to cure according to paint instructions before applying the Post-it
Cutting the Film:
The Post-it Flex Write Surface can be cut to size using a variety of cutting tools including scissors, box cutters or utility knives. Always confirm the size
®
of the area you wish to cover, measure the surface twice before cutting and use a straight edge, such as a ruler, to ensure a square cut. Take caution
when handling the edges of the surface as they may be sharp.
Use and Maintenance Procedures:
• Use standard dry erase and permanent markers. Metallic ink permanent markers are not recommended.
• Do not use ultra-fine tip markers, pens, and pencils.
• Dry Erasing: Erase dry erase ink with the provided Post-it
recommended. To prevent wall staining, avoid wiping ink onto your wall surface. Writing or erasing marker ink off the film and onto the wall may result
in staining.
• Permanent Marker Erasing: Generously spray permanent marker ink with water using the provided water bottle. For best results, let the water sit a
moment on the ink and then wipe away using the Post-it
flow onto your wall surface and avoid wiping permanent marker ink onto your wall surface. Writing or erasing marker ink off the film and onto the wall
may result in staining.
• Erase ink when the content is no longer needed. For best results, erase ink on the surface every two weeks.
• Do not scratch, dent or crease the film surface. If applying to a horizontal surface, avoid using or setting sharp or pointed objects on the product.
Product Removal:
To remove the Post-it Flex Write Surface, select a corner and peel slowly and smoothly away from the wall. For best results, gently pull away at a
®
180 degree angle. CAUTION: Pulling the film away from the wall in a fast or aggressive motion may result in film or surface damage.
Safety Information:
CAUTION: To reduce the risks associated with sharp edges, use caution when handling, cutting and installing the product.
