How to apply wall decals
approved surfaces
To successfully apply your decal, you will need a surface that is smooth, dry, and flat. Textured surfaces will not allow your decal to stick correctly.
Instructions for Applying Wall Decals
Small Decals:
- Choose the location for your decal and carefully plan the placement, making sure it will fit.
- Slowly and carefully, remove the decal from the backing paper.
- Apply the decal to the wall, smoothing out any wrinkles or bubbles with a credit card.
- To reposition the decal, carefully lift an edge and slowly peel it off the wall following the directions below.
Large Decals:
- Choose the location for your decal and carefully plan the placement, making sure it will fit.
- Cut around any pieces of the decal to make it easier to manage.
- Carefully and slowly, peel back a corner and fold 10-15cm of the backing paper, exposing the sticky side of the decal.
- Apply the exposed decal to the wall, holding it firmly in place.
- Carefully remove the remaining backing paper while holding the decal in place, and smoothing it down as you press. This is easier with 2 people!
- Get rid of any bubbles by carefully smoothing out with a credit card, pushing out from the centre to the edges.
removing your wall decals
To remove your wall decals, gently peel back from one corner and slowly remove.
If you find there is some resistance, use the warm setting on a hairdryer and apply to the decals until the edges begin to curl up, and then gently remove.
