Adhesive wall graphics are a great alternative for a painted mural. They require less upkeep and are both cheaper and easier to install. Even better, wall graphics give the option for easy removal that won’t ruin a wall when it is taken down. This can be perfect for short term use, such as a graduating class in high school or a charity drive.
Becoming a pro with wall graphics is easy. With a few frequently asked questions answered, anyone can set up a beautiful mural in their space.
Can Wall Graphics Be Installed on Non-Wall Surfaces?
Wall graphics can be installed on any clean, flat surface. The trick is to make sure the surface has been well-cleaned ahead of time to ensure less bubbling. If a surface has been recently painted, you should let the surface dry for a minimum of 30 days. Not doing so leaves a risk of bubbles as the paint continues outgassing. Be sure the surfaces are also primed to alleviate leftover residue.
Can Wall Graphics Be Used Outdoors?
Ideally, wall graphics should be used indoors. However, there are lamination options to help protect against moisture and UV fading. This won’t fully protect the graphics from outdoor elements but could be helpful for a very short-term use.
Can Wall Graphics be Placed on Wallpaper?
They can be placed on wallpaper but it isn’t recommended. Damage is very possible to occur during removal of the wall graphics.
How Are These Wall Murals Installed?
Our professionals use tools specific to the job such as a squeegee to adhere the sticker perfectly to the wall surface. This is done after measuring the area prior, removing the sticker from the paper, then applying to the wall. Our team uses tools to ensure everything is lined up perfectly with minimal to no overlap or gaps in the mural.
What Images Can I Use?
There is nearly no end to what graphics can be used. As long as the files are high enough resolution to be printed in the requested size, we can make any mural of your vision.
