WALL PREPARATION:
Wallcovering installation has many variables, these instructions are intended as a guide for many common
scenarios.
.
The wall surface should be clean, thoroughly off-gassed from priming or painting. Removable
wallpaper will adhere to most common paints with the exception of washable paints and “No
VOC” paints prohibit full adhesion. To counter this limitation, the wall can be thoroughly wiped
down with isopropyl alcohol with a rag. We suggest that the wall surface should be tested for
adhesion prior installation. In the case of poor adhesion due to no VOC paint, a primer or
wallpaper glue can be applied to the perimeter of each panel.
INSTALLATION / HANGING
Start installation on the left or right side of install wall.
Release 6” of the backer paper and crease flat backwards, place a few inches of the exposed
adhesive in place allowing for 1-2” of bleed above the wall.
Start in the middle and adhere to wall. Using a squeegee (felt line preferably) work the graphic
to the edges in small 4-6” segments evenly. The paper has a pressure activated adhesive,
applying pressure evenly throughout installation is a must.
Maintain the graphic flat to the wall and pull the release line in small section downward,
repeating the process until the bottom of the panel.
Overlap: for overlap installation; determine the amount of overlap incorporated into the
graphics, in this case ¼ to ½ inch, and starting at the top align the graphic to the first panel and
be sure to be level across the top when setting the graphic. Using the same steps as the first
panel work your way downward verifying the graphic is aligning. (be careful to use even
consistent pressure to avoid stretching the panel.) If the panel is placed incorrectly gently pull
the graphic parallel to the wall and reset.
Once all panels are in place, trim the edges with a sharp, fresh blade. To avoid and edge walking
you can hold a straight edge between the blade and ceiling/floor.
