Shanetta DIY Life brings you videos on underrated Dollar Tree Items, home improvement videos utilizing Dollar Tree items, and other budget-friendly products. The idea behind DIY life is that you can DIY all aspects of your life, not only home decor. I have never thought of ideas to improve contact paper on floors and other out-of-the-box thinking.

Shanetta DIY Life also makes videos based on subscribers' requests from messages sent from the blog shanettadiylife.com. Our subscribers are a fun bunch (DIY Friends), and this makes it fun, so watch some videos, leave a comment, and subscribe so you, too, can have fun and learn some new things.

You will also find some motivational videos and DIY decor videos sprinkled in because I like a bit of variety.

I feel like the fluffy one would be good to use on the walls, to remove any dust or cobwebs.

Oh, yeah, I forgot about this option. But wouldn't you only get 2 cycles from 1 box of baking soda? At least with this, you get 3 per pack.

You were really refreshing to watch give an actual use case review. Thank you so much for the joy , the spirited demonstration and the honest to goodness post use review. Cheers! I have the microfiber head and honestly did not know what to do with it. But I think I'll reserve it for dusting the walls and use the more dense head for mopping like you did. I like the idea that they are washable and reusable. I can imagine having a head for each day of the week and doing a load of laundry to wash them all at the end of the week,

Yes, If you only use two thin coats like I did you can. Anymore would make it harder to remover based on other experiences.

Yes, when the machine is no longer taking in the water, turn your faucet off or it will pop off from the pressure.

I ordered the same item, although it now costs $99 and the hardware is different. It now comes with a metal canopy that the cord strings through, and you're supposed to screw it to the ceiling. I couldn't figure out how to do that without the cord getting in the way, so I ended up hanging it by a command hook, but it fell off. I'm now going to try an adhesive ceiling hook. Since it's so light I'm not worried about the weight, I just need something that is designed to hang items from the ceiling, which command hooks are not. I've always been obsessed with chandeliers so I hope it works out.
@ShanettaDIYLife

That sounds like a good idea. I don't like the metal base option. 😕 It takes up floor space for no reason IMO

How do you get them to stay? I literally just place mine on the bathroom wall and it’s started coming up after a hot shower :(
@ShanettaDIYLife
@ShanettaDIYLife 2 месяца назад
It depends on your wall. It should be wiped clean then dried. If your wall isn't smooth, then it will peel up. I've found If the paint on your wall isn't at least semi-gloss it doesn't adhere well. It's needs a smooth surface to attach to 100%.

How does it yold up to high traffic and mopping? Water spills? I guess how durable?
@ShanettaDIYLife
@ShanettaDIYLife 4 месяца назад
If you use the exact same product that I did in this video it holds up. I only did one coat, but for extra durability 2 or 3 is preferred. I was just tired and it still held up for me. It's like having a waterproof barrier on your floor.

Thank you so much for this! My new contact paper tabletop has a white pattern. I used an oil based “clear” polyurethane coat to protect it and it turned yellow 🫠 so I’ll re do it and protect it with something else. What would you recommend for a crystal clear matte coating? How does the spray behave (is it even?) on larger areas? (My table is roughly 47” diameter) thank you so much!!!
@ShanettaDIYLife
@ShanettaDIYLife 5 месяцев назад
Of course! In my experience, using Verathane or Polycrylic keeps the finish crystal clear. For my kitchen countertops, I decided to use your epoxy resin as this is the ultimate protection; you just can't get it off. The spray gives a rubber texture, so I wouldn't recommend that for a table The product I used is no longer being sold, but review some of the ones here amzn.to/3SOtEK9. I judge the products based on review photos to make sure it's crystal clear. You have to make sure you don't use any cleaning products with dye as it may stain. I hope this helps
@user-dy6ne3nj3q
@user-dy6ne3nj3q 5 месяцев назад
Thank you so much for responding and for the recommendations! Really appreciate it! How many layers of the Varathane or Polycrylic have you used in the past for a crystal clear finish? Have you ever used one that is crystal clear and matte?

I want to say more off-white. Then, it also depends on the lighting you have in your room.
