> 3 dayWe made a really nice ironing board platform for ironing my quilts, and found a good pattern online. We glued 1/4 inch regular foam onto the board (came in a roll, from Amazon), then tried to put this product over the foam. All went fine until the paper started sticking to the back of the silver fabric and ripping off in pieces. We DID peel it very slowly, it ripped anyways. The creases in this fabric from being folded were DEEP and we had to iron it before applying or we are sure they would have shown after applying it. Perhaps the ironing caused the problem, we dont know, but just as other reviewers stated, the paper on the back is a problem. I had to peel it off with a tweezers as we were applying, constantly stopping the process to peel the paper. I would try NOT ironing it and living with the creases. The manufacturer needs to SHIP THIS IN A ROLL, like Heat n Bond comes - the creases are a problem. After much work, the board came out great, but there are some lumps here and there where the foam simply peeled away with the paper.

> 3 dayI bought the product because the dimensions are just perfect for my quilt ironing board. I used to buy heat resistant material and staple it to the my 60 x 25 ironing board. With this product, I just have to stick it to the surface and wrap it around the corners and sides. This self adhesive cover is manageable to wrap around. Thank you Bo-Nash!

> 3 dayI just applied mine directly to a 5 X 2 particle board. I ran into all the issues everyone warned about but took extra care - and it worked. - The backing does want to tear into strips, but be careful and after a few inches, you will get it peeling in one piece across the entire short edge. I ironed the piece (on the fabric side) first in order to get out the more serious wrinkles from being folded in the packaging. This heat may have helped loosen the glue a bit so I was able to recover from the tearing of the backing that occurred initially. - The glue and very thin foam backing DOES want to stick to itself AND especially to your fingers. If it sticks to your fingers, it seems to pull the foam away from the fabric and sticks to your fingers instead. Solution: once you have enough of the backing removed, tear off a couple of pieces of that backing and use it between your fingers and the sticky side to hold it down as you peel away more backing. - I peeled away five or six inches all across, pressed it down to my board, held the new stuck edge in place (with a couple of pieces of the torn backing) while I peeled away the next five or six inches. Repeat. Doing just a few inches at a time resulted in great success. I did rush one section and got a minor section where the fabric folded and stick to itself, so be patient. Glue on fingers and scissors comes off easily with a little alcohol. I now have an ironing board wide enough to press full width bolts of fabric. I didnt add any additional batting because I like a firm surface.

> 3 dayI bought the Bonash Ironslide 2000 to be applied to my new better board ironing board. I applied the cover over a thick piece of cotton quilt batting cut the size of the board. I cut slices on the corners to help with a custom fit. This was super easy to install. The adhesion was great. The fit was perfect. My new extra large ironing board looks perfect. I will buy again when it wheres out.

Greater than one weekMy hubby made me a larger quilters rectangular ironing board and had difficulty positioning this stuff onto the surface. After a while he gave up and just stapled it down instead of fussing with the adhesive. He has plenty of experience building things but this one stumped him. And I dont like it because when I press my quilt blocks, the fabric tends to stick to this ironing board cover. I need to actually peel my fabric off the ironing board, and stray threads catch and unravel. Ive had this happen before with lower quality ironing board covers but didnt expect to have a problem with this cover as it had gotten good reviews. I guess well keep looking.
