Question 1

Is it removable?

Accepted Answer

Adhesive for this product either size 18" or 12" is pretty much a TRUE CONTACT CEMENT like adhesive. So we rarely apply this to anything we might want to remove it later. (NO WALLS of any kind not wood, tile. ceramic, stone and of course NO PAINTED walls and painted wallboard which most painted walls are. What we do is cut a larger piece of thin material such as polished smooth partical board and even twice a laminated formica that was flattened out via weights and heat in summer for a week to insure it's flat. Then peel this and apply leaving an equal amount around all four edges. Usually 1 to 2 inches depending on what you've chosen to use as a frame. A thin metal frame work you might even need less of an edge. This I glue in place to the backing or nail if it's thicker backing that takes a nail or smaller screws even. I will paint or finish any wood frames before actually assembling so there's no chance of getting paint on the cork. But I also have used it just as others here stated in reviews as non skid and protective bottoms of ceramic wares and the like such as tiles made into hot plate pads. The cork will protect by insulation and also from scratching buy anything set on the tile. If you find some nice flat non flimsy or unbendable for most part steel panels that also is a great choice to put the cork onto and I've made one that we didn't even bother to frame because it looked pretty finished right to the edge of the white manufactured steel panel so powder coated it's called. I bought the orginal bundle of metal sheets to make a magnetic board. Had to buy like 6 maybe 8 of them at great price years ago but slowly using them up for a number of great projects including a cork board. This cork is not super thick. But if you buy the thicker you will pay a premium price and for our basic projects it's worked fine. Love to have a roll about for numerous things. Just realized we were out and I needed just a wee strip to apply to 6 inch metal rulers for sewing room to prevent slipping on some slippery nylon pack cloth fabrics when making pencil or pen marks. And dang not one wee little 1 inch strip anywhere to be found? So happy to buy more. Stay Safe and healthy. Think outside the box and apply logic across the stratosphere of minds different chambers.

Question 2

Is this made of PVC?

Accepted Answer

Just cork and adhesive, paper backing.

Question 3

How thick is the cork?

Accepted Answer

VERT THIN!   It worked for shelf lining.

Question 4

Will the self adhesive easily come off if using it in cabinets and drawers or will it damage the paint?

Accepted Answer

I think really anywhere you put this, it's going to leave behind the sticky adhesive. I put this on my laminated desk and I tried to pick it up and it's really stuck there. It comes up but looks tacky/sticky underneath. Other con-tact liner's would be better if you ever want to peel it off easily.
