Project from Cintia - 0 CommentsYour dull shoe cabinet is quickly and easily transformed into something completely new. With trendy metal films and d-c-fix static window films, you can create true, self-made unique pieces.
Transform your shoe rack into a stylish eyecatcher in just 8 steps with our do-it-yourself-tips:
- a shoe rack with a smooth surface
- one roll of d-c-fix® high-gloss rose gold 45cm x 2m
- one roll of the desired d-c-fix static window film
- d-c-fix® application set (squeegee and cutter)
- tape measure and ruler
- spray bottle with water
Let’s go
Step 1
Collect the necessary materials.
Step 2
After you have removed the doors, measure the sides. And remove the knob.
Step 3
Draw the appropriate dimensions on the film and then cut it to size with a little allowance.
Step 4
At first, slowly pull off part of the backing paper and position the adhesive film at an edge. Now, smooth the film bit by bit with a squeegee. In order to avoid air bubbles, always pull the squeegee from the centre to the outsides.
Step 5
Adhere the film closely over the edges and press it down firmly.
Step 6
Carefully cut the film at the corners of your shoe rack and press it down firmly.
Step 7
Also cut the static window film to size and place it on the moistened high-gloss film. The water makes it possible for you to orient it.
Step 8
Now, press out the excess water by using the squeegee from the centre to the outsides again. Finally, reattach the knob and install the door.
You’re done!

EXPERT ADVICE
DIY expert tip: Cut a small X in the depression over the knob hole with the cutter so that the knob can be installed through the film with no bubbles.
