What is a Peel and Stick Sample?

A peel and stick sample is a revolutionary way to test paint colours in your home without the hassle of using traditional paint tester pots. These samples are pre-painted adhesive sheets that can be easily applied to your walls, allowing you to see how a particular paint shade looks in your space. Unlike messy tester pots, peel and stick samples are clean, convenient, and require no tools or painting skills to use. Simply peel off the backing, stick the sample to your wall, and evaluate how it complements your décor and lighting.

With these samples, you can skip the time-consuming process of painting swatches and focus instead on finding the perfect shade for your home.

Are Peel and Stick Paint Samples Accurate?

Yes, peel and stick paint samples are highly accurate. Additionally they are made with real paint which ensures that the colour you see on the sample matches the paint you’ll receive in your tin. Unlike printed colour charts or digital swatches, which can vary due to printing techniques or screen calibration, peel and stick samples offer an authentic representation of the colour.

The accuracy of these samples makes them a preferred choice for homeowners and interior designers alike. Subsequently they eliminate the guesswork associated with visualising how a paint shade will appear on your walls, taking into account factors like texture and sheen. With Hemway peel and stick samples, you can trust that what you see is what you’ll get when you commit to a full paint job.

How to Apply Peel and Stick?

Applying is incredibly simple. Here’s a step-by-step guide to get the best results:

  1. Choose the Wall: Identify the areas where you’re considering applying the new paint colour.
  2. Clean the Surface: Ensure the wall is clean and dry before applying the sample. This ensures proper adhesion and an accurate representation of the colour.
  3. Peel the Backing: Carefully peel off the backing of the sample, exposing the adhesive side.
  4. Stick and Smooth: Apply the sample to the wall, pressing firmly and smoothing out any air bubbles or wrinkles.

To make the most of your peel and stick sample, it’s important to test it in different conditions:

  • Different Times of the Day: Colours can appear dramatically different depending on the light. Check the sample in natural light during the morning, midday, and evening, as well as under artificial lighting at night.
  • Different Walls: Walls facing different directions receive varying amounts of light. So try the sample on multiple walls to see how the shade looks in each area.

Hemway samples are designed to be repositionable, allowing you to move them around effortlessly without losing their adhesive qualities.

Do They Work?

Absolutely! Peel and stick paint samples are an innovative solution that has transformed the way we choose paint colours. They work by giving you a realistic preview of how a colour will look on your walls, considering the unique lighting and surroundings of your home. Traditional methods, like using tester pots or relying on printed colour cards, often fall short because they don’t account for the nuances of your space.

With Hemway peel and stick samples, you can:

  • See the exact shade of paint on your walls without messy brushstrokes or uneven application.
  • Move the sample around to explore how it interacts with various light sources and angles.
  • Compare multiple colours side by side to make informed decisions.

These samples save time, effort, and money, ensuring that you’re completely satisfied with your colour choice before committing to a full tin of paint.

Does Peel and Stick Ruin Walls?

No, they are designed to be wall-friendly and leave no residue or damage behind. Unlike traditional adhesive products that can peel paint or leave sticky marks, our high-quality samples are engineered for safe application and removal. They use a gentle adhesive that sticks firmly but lifts off cleanly when it’s time to remove or reposition them.

To ensure your walls remain pristine:

  • Apply the sample to a clean, dry surface free of dust and grease.
  • Avoid applying to walls with peeling paint or delicate wallpaper.

If you follow these guidelines, you can enjoy the convenience of peel and stick samples without any worries about damaging your walls.

Are Peel and Stick Paint Samples Reusable?

Peel and stick paint samples are generally reusable, but their lifespan depends on how carefully they’re handled. Hemway A5 Peel & Stick Samples are designed to be repositionable, allowing you to move them from one spot to another to evaluate different lighting and angles.

To maximise reusability:

  • Peel the sample off gently to avoid tearing.
  • Store the sample on its original backing or a smooth surface if you plan to reuse it later.
  • Avoid folding or creasing the sample.

Is Peel and Stick Better Than a Tester Pot?

Yes, they are often considered a superior option to traditional tester pots for several reasons:

  • Mess-Free: Tester pots require brushes, rollers, and clean up. Peel and stick samples eliminate the need for these tools, making the process tidier and more convenient.
  • Time-Saving: Applying a sample is instant, while painting a swatch requires drying time. With peel and stick, you can evaluate colours immediately.
  • Consistency: Tester pots can lead to uneven application, affecting how the colour appears. Peel and stick samples provide a smooth and consistent finish.
  • Portability: You can move peel and stick samples around to see how the colour looks in different areas, which is impossible with painted swatches.
  • Wall-Friendly: Unlike tester pots, which permanently mark your walls, peel and stick samples can be removed without leaving a trace.
