Recommended tools: Painters tape, pencil, level, included wiper tool, utility knife, 6 in. or larger joint knife
Preparation
- Clean and Smooth: Ensure your wall is clean, smooth, and dry. Wall murals won't hide textures, holes, nails, or other markings. We recommend filling any holes and sanding any imperfections, as they will show through your mural once installed.
2. Unpack and unroll: Unpack and unroll the panels of your wall mural. Lay them out in order from left to right, with panel 1 being the left-most panel.
Installing a Pre-Pasted Wall Mural
Activate the Paste: The paste is already applied to the back of the mural. Activate it with water using a roller or wallpaper tray. We recommend activating and installing one strip at a time.
Align and Apply:
- Start with the first strip. Align the top corner left and edge.
- Use the included smoothing tool to smooth the panel from the top, pushing air pockets out to the edges for a flush fit.
Repeat: Align each subsequent strip edge-to-edge and repeat the smoothing process.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Each panel will overlap the panel to it’s left by 1 inch to ensure a seamless fit.
Special Cases
Around Electrical Outlets:
- Turn Off Power: For safety, turn off the power supply.
- Apply and Mark: Apply the mural over the outlet, then mark the edges of the outlet.
- Trim: Carefully trim the excess mural with a sharp blade to expose the outlet.
Around Rounded Objects (e.g., Light Fixtures):
- Cut a Star Shape: Where the mural will cover the fixture, cut a star shape.
- Apply and Trim: Apply the mural over the fixture, then carefully cut away the excess material.
