Installation Instructions

Installing your Wallmonkey is easy. A few minutes of prep makes all the difference. For larger decals, grab a second pair of hands.

Before you start

  • Be gentle. Our vinyl is durable, but it can tear if mishandled.
  • Unroll your decal and let it rest flat at room temperature for at least an hour before applying (overnight is best).
  • Pick a smooth surface and measure to make sure your decal fits.
  • Clean the surface with a dry cloth to remove dust. Don't use chemicals or soap, and make sure the wall is completely dry.

Installing a standard decal

  1. Carefully peel the decal from its backing paper. Touch the adhesive side as little as possible.
  2. Start at one corner and smooth the decal onto the wall. For best results, start at the bottom half and work your way up.
  3. Smooth out any bubbles. If one won't budge, gently lift the nearest corner to release the air and smooth it down again.
  4. Step back and enjoy your new Wallmonkey.

Installing a transfer tape decal

  1. Peel away the backing paper. The clear transfer tape keeps every piece in place.
  2. Position the decal. You can see through the tape to line it up exactly.
  3. Smooth it onto the wall with your hands or the included squeegee.
  4. Slowly peel off the transfer tape to reveal your design.

Use a helper for transfer tape decals 36" and larger.

Installing a mural

Murals arrive as 48"-wide panels with a 1" overlap. Hang the first panel straight, then line up each panel with the overlap for a seamless finish.

Tips

  • Textured wall? Test with a material sample first, and secure the corners with removable adhesive strips if needed.
  • To remove, peel slowly from one corner. No tools needed, and no residue left behind.
  • Saving it for later? Store it on the original backing paper.
