HOW TO INSTALL PEEL AND STICK WALLPAPER

COLOR
I do my best to accurately represent the color and scale of this design, however, digital screens and monitors are unreliable and should never be used to determine how a printed color will look, the only way to see colors is in person. The finished product may be slightly different than it appears in the preview on your screen or monitor. Color may vary slightly throughout materials. We print each order upon request (made-to-order) and while we try to maintain color through time we can't guarantee that between lots there will be a 100% color match. You might be one of those people (like me) who absolutely love surprises… but trust me, getting a color that doesn’t match your existing décor will not be a pleasant surprise. Order a sample!

OVERLAP
All our wallpaper panels have one 1/4 inch for overlap purpose in addition to the listed width. Overlap area is mandatory to ensure the quality of our wallpapers (to prevent gaps) and can be removed or left by the customer. While calculating the amount of panels you will need please do not count the overlap since it will be covered by the consecutive panel.

MADE TO ORDER
Once your order is placed, I will print and cut the design on the specific size you selected. American Decals Wallpaper panels are 26 inches wide and I offer a variety of lengths to fit the height of your wall. Each panel will overlap with the next one so the design will flow across the wall. Measure twice order once!

DID YOU RECENTLY PAINT YOUR WALLS?
Wait at least 4 weeks before applying decals/wallpaper when used a regular semi-satin latex paint. If the waiting period is ignored, your decals might fall or develop packets of air underneath (bubbles) during the outgassing period (gasses released by paint). CLEAN YOUR WALL even if you recently painted.
NOTE: Low VOC and Zero VOC paints will take longer periods of outgassing (up to 12 months)

AVOID Low VOC & Zero VOC paints if possible on the wall used for American Decals Peel & Stick Wallpaper:

SECURE YOUR WALLPAPER PANELS ( ONLY TO PEEL AND STICK WALLPAPER)
When it comes to Peel and Stick Wallpaper, you will need to be proactive and prevent adhesive failure by following the following recommendations. High humidity and chemicals in the paint are main causes the adhesive will fail. Please clean your wall, choose the right paint, and keep your humidity level at 40% or lower (During summer, your humidity will rise) To make sure panels won’t fall, use extra adhesive at the top of each panel. Examples of Adhesive to use:
Glue Dots Double-sided Dots (No mess- Non-Toxic) Add 5 -10 dots across the top of each panel.
