Over time, and especially with heat, these plasticizers can leach out of the vinyl. This makes the vinyl brittle and rigid, causing it to <b>shrink and crack<\/b>. It&#8217;s why older vinyl often looks like a dried-out decal that breaks into tiny pieces.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><b>Adhesive Degradation:<\/b> As plasticizers migrate, they can also react with the adhesive, turning it into a gooey, sticky residue that&#8217;s incredibly hard to remove.
