WALL PREPARATION

TOOLS NEEDED
BEFORE INSTALLATION
- Cover your floor with a tarp.
- Fill the container with lukewarm water.
- Your mural is numbered at the top and according to the number of strips, the first being the one on the left.
- To start the installation, your first strip must be level. Measure the width of your first strip, subtract ½” at that measurement and draw a vertical line from the left or use the laser.
START THE INSTALLATION
- Roll your first strip on itself, with the pattern facing outwards, then dip the entire roll in the water tray, holding the top in your hands. Let the water penetrate for about 30 seconds.
- Pull up while letting the roll unwind slowly to remove it from the tray.
- Paste the strip at the top of the wall by allowing it to exceed of½’’ to the ceiling while aligning with your pencil or laser line. Using your plastic smoother, make diagonal movements from the center upwards and sideways to remove all air bubbles.
- Clean off excess glue and water with the cloth.
- **ATTENTION AT THIS STEP DO NOT CUT OFF THE EXCESS.
- Repeat the previous installation steps and apply the 2 strips of wallpaper side by side while aligning the pattern.
- Continue in the same way until the last strip.
- Trim the excess wallpaper from the ceiling, bottom, and the first and last web, using an X-Acto. For more precision, use the smoother or a ruler to guide the blade.
