How Do I Install My Flipstik?

To install your Flipstik, make sure the back of your phone is clean and dry before peeling off the protective film and attaching the 3M adhesive firmly to your device. 

What Can I Stick My Flipstik To?

Flipstik can stick to any flat surface including, but not limited to glass, mirrors, walls, leather, brick, metal, wood, hard plastics, car dashes, and more.

To stick your Flipstik to a surface, make sure it’s clean and dry before pressing firmly on the surface you’d like to stick it to. The harder you press, the longer it will stick. When you want to remove your Flipstik from the surface, simply twist it.

What Can’t I Stick My Flipstik To?

The top of the Flipstik has a synthetic setae adhesive. This adhesive doesn’t pair well with wet surfaces, surfaces that have a curve to them, porous surfaces, and certain silicone surfaces. You should also use caution when sticking Flipstik to drywall that has been painted.

How Do I Clean My Flipstik?

Cleaning your Flipstik is important for proper care and maintenance. You can clean it by using alcohol wipes (recommended) or you can use mild soap and water. Begin by taking your alcohol wipe and rubbing it in a circulation motion on the blue setae adhesive until there is no debris left. 

Once your Flipstik is clean, you’ll want to wait at least five minutes for it to dry before using it again - wet Flipstik’s don’t stick well to surfaces. And you may notice that after you clean your Flipstik that it leaves behind a residue after sticking to certain surfaces. This residue can easily be cleaned by taking a damp cloth and wiping it from the surface.

I Have a Wireless Charger, Can I Still Use Flipstik?

My Hinge Came Apart, Can You Send a Replacement?
