About Dekal
What are the dimensions of a roll of Dekel?
Each roll measures 26.5" x 78.7" (67cm x 200cm), for a total of 14.5 sq. ft. The roll is wide enough to cover most US standard counters, including the lip.
What’s the difference between Dekal and “regular” contact paper?
Dekal is crafted from high-quality low-tack vinyl that is both lightweight and durable, offering resistance to water, oil, and heat. Its easy application and repositioning make it a practical choice compared to traditional contact paper, which is often sticky, challenging to work with, and difficult to remove. Any residue can be cleaned with water and gentle scraping. For best results, it’s recommended to avoid use on oil-finished or painted surfaces.
Is Dekal kosher for Passover?
Dekal conforms to the highest standard of kashrus. It is the first countertop cover with Kosher for Passover certification (OK Kosher Certification). That means you will have no worries about food being in direct contact with your countertops covered by Dekal.
What kind of surfaces can I cover with Dekal?
Dekal is suitable for a variety of surfaces, including granite, laminate, quartz, marble, soapstone, tile, stainless steel, Corian, Formica, wood, glass, and more. It has been tested on many countertop materials, but we recommend trying a small piece first to ensure it’s a good fit for your surface.
Will Dekal damage my countertops?
Dekal is designed to be safely removed from your countertops. It’s a beautiful and practical solution to keep your kitchen clean during Pesach, and once the holiday is over, you can remove it and restore your space to its original condition. For the best results, we recommend testing a small piece first to ensure it’s a good fit for your surface.
Can I reuse Dekal?
Dekal is not reusable. After the holiday, remove and discard it.
