Our wall murals are made of high quality vinyl that is easy to work with an very forgiving. The backing is lined with quality medium tack adhesive, that clings onto your wall when you need it to, and comes off with ease when you don’t. The artwork surface is then finished off with an extra tough matte lamination to ensure a long lasting impression for years to come.

• Large murals are printed in multiple panels and might require two people to install.
• Great for any smooth wall surface, doors, renters, dorms, bedrooms, offices, refrigerators, kids play areas, reception areas, waiting rooms, halls.
• Not recommended for high moisture areas, above or near fireplaces and cribs.

Basic installation tips

• Depending on the size of your surface it may be helpful to have someone to help you with installation
• Be sure to start with a smooth, clean surface (preferably non-glossy wall paint).
• Remove hooks, light fixtures, and wall plates; fill cracks and holes with spackling compound and sand until smooth.
• Do not pre-trim your mural.
• Make sure you approve your mural layout before trimming any excess material.
• Multi-panel murals have an overlap along the seams. This is not a printing error.
• If your mural sticks to itself, slowly peel the two sides apart by dipping your fingers in some rubbing alcohol, then working them between the areas stuck. Gently pull apart.
• The same mural can be safely applied and removed many times without losing adhesion.
• To remove your mural from the surface, slowly and gently peel from the top on a 120 degree angle.

Tools to make installation even easier:

• Tape measure and straight edge
• Sharp knife or boxcutter
• Smoothing tool or towel
• Blowdryer

Application

Remove your mural from its shipping tube. The mural comes with backing paper, which protects the adhesive. Keep this backing paper on and lay the wall graphic on a flat surface. This will allow the wall graphic to adjust to room temperature and ensure the best installation. 

Try not to let the adhesive backing come together, or let the material roll up against itself. If it does, slowly separate the two sides apart by dipping your fingers in some rubbing alcohol, then working them between the areas stuck. Gently pull apart. Once the alcohol evaporates, the adhesive will return to its original tack.

With the help of a friend position the mural on the prepared surface. Start at the top of your print and pull down approximately 3-6 inches of the backing paper. By lightly pressing and smoothing from the center outwards, apply the exposed adhesive area of your print to the chosen surface. Firmly press down with your palm and smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles.
Then continue to slowly peeling the backing paper downward in small increments, pressing and smoothing as you go. Once the process is started it might be easier if another person holds the bottom and pulls down slightly, giving some tension, while keeping it square and straight.

Then trim excess material, if necessary.
 

Surfaces and Precautionary Measures

If you've recently painted your walls, please give the paint at least 30 days to fully cure prior to installing your mural. Bubbling or entire peeling of the mural may occur if the paint is still curing, due to chemical in the paint trying to evaporate -- which weakens the adhesive. It's also important to make sure drywall painted surfaces and repainted surfaces have been properly primed to prevent paint peel offs upon removal. Please understand that not all surfaces are equally strong, meaning some may find that paint may partially chip off when removing the wall decal. We strongly recommend that the material is stuck on a flat, smooth, clean and dry surface for best results.

If you have a textured wall, it would help to work the mural into the pattern of you wall with a blow dryer on medium to high heat; until you can see the texture on the surface of the mural. This ensures that the mural's adhesive has full contact and support to the wall.
