I dont know of any other way to apply the vinyl to furniture besides with a staple gun. As long as the staples are going on the underside of the furniture it will not be damaged.

Hello Katrina...I haven't personally used it but I was recommended to use "Goof-off"... You can find it at any home depot.I would suggest you try the product on hidden section of your furniture to ensure no damage is done to the furniture as you apply it.Sorry for the delayed reply and good luck.

I used a heavy duty staple gun at the bottom and made sure the rope was tight when I was winding it around the pole. I also use a staple midway through and another one at the top.

It's thin so a hand stapler will work fine . A air gun may be to powerful .i stapled a 50' fence section a few months ago... It's still standing.

I wet the shelf a little first. That worked where it was bare wood but not where there was already shelf paper. My mother tells me it would stay if I cut and folded it precisely like she taught me but I don't think a bug would dare invade her kitchen anyway.

Yes, this staple gun would easily do that. And much more, it is very heavy duty. We stapled right into our wooden fence to hang up lights. Hope this helps! I highly recommend it!

It would help. I had an old Bostich staple gun that I could use all day hanging building paper, roofing paper or installing insulation, and it would drive the staples home. This Arrow stapler is hard to fire and usually does not seat the staples. Also take a look at the ratio of negative to positive reviews.

You can use a heavy-duty stapler with generic staples. Home Depot sells them. If the frame was metal, you would need a pneumatic stapler and heavy-duty staples.

Your question is tougher than it appears. First, the hardened wood may pose an issue and I personally am not very impressed with this so-called "heavy duty" stapler. I would go to one of the big box stores and try out the different models and see if they make specific staples for old and hardened wood. If I had it to do over, that is what I would do myself. Good luck with your project.

Make sure the staples are pushed down all the way. Sometimes I have to use a screwdriver to push them down so they lie flat against the bed of the stapler.

This gun is suppose to take brads too. I saw them at the home improvement store when I was getting staples, but I did not try any. If the wood is thin enough the brads ought to work.

There is a spring loaded lever on the back that you push in... then simply slide the bottom tray back and put the staples in their slot. I had no problem loading but it did start misfiring pretty badly after about 1000 staples (I had to keep opening the front and pushing the firing pin/hammer back up into the housing. Either bad luck for me or just a bad design). Good luck.

I would put cardboard down so you dont scratch it when hammering it together. I would also utilize the black plastic guard pieces that are included. Good Luck!:)

I would think so, however, here's bad news. I bought this stapler and thought it was fabulous. And, it was, for about one hour. I sent it back for a full refund. In all fairness, I think it had been manhandled during shipping. Because it was in a hard case, it was not packed with buffering foam, etc. So, it worked great but for about one hour!

I wouldn't depend on the staples to stay up for any length of time with the light duty version. Especially if the material you are stapling to is an exterior wood beam or thick siding (it wouldn't pierce the side of a vinyl storage bin which is why I purchased mine to affix a laminated label of the contents). Sorry if this wasn't the answer you were hoping for!

Reducing the pressure of the air compressor should do it. Also reducing how hard you press the staple gun against your project would help.
