Does contact paper stick to block walls?

To make contact paper stick to any surface, you can try the following steps:

1. Clean the surface thoroughly. Be sure to remove any dirt, dust, or oil from the surface to ensure that the contact paper will stick properly.
2. Use a roller or a smooth, hard object, such as a credit card or a scraper, to smooth out any bubbles or creases in the contact paper as you apply it. This will help to ensure that the contact paper adheres to the surface evenly.
3. Apply pressure to the edges of the contact paper to help it bond to the surface. You can use a roller or a hard object to apply pressure along the edges.
4. If the contact paper is still not sticking properly, you can try using a small amount of adhesive spray to help it adhere. Follow the instructions on the product and be sure to use it in a well-ventilated area.
5. Once the contact paper is in place, you can use a roller or a hard object to apply pressure over the entire surface to ensure that it is sticking properly.

Remember to be patient and take your time when applying contact paper to ensure that it adheres to the surface properly.
