HOW TO APPLY YOUR VINYL DECAL

Wall decals are graphic adhesive vinyl stickers that can be applied to walls or other surfaces. They are simple to install; just peel and stick! Wall decals are not permanent and are easily removed. Wall decals are an innovative and affordable way to express your creativity and personalize your space with our collection of unique designs.

Oh Divine Wall Decals are made from an ultra-thin, self-adhesive matte vinyl film that looks like it is painted to the wall once applied. If you would prefer a gloss vinyl finish, please let us know at the time of ordering.

 Before you get started there are a couple of things to note:

  • If you have recently painted your wall, please wait at least 2 weeks before applying your vinyl decal. This allows ample time for the paint to completely cure. The decals will adhere better and paint will not come off when the wall decals are removed.
  • Wall Decals adhere best to smooth surfaces such as drywall. Slightly textured surfaces such as an orange peel texture are fine. Wall decals will not adhere to rough, textured or very porous surfaces.
  • Wall Decals are perfect for bathroom and kitchen use too! They can be easily applied to mirrors, tiles, or acrylic shower walls, shower curtains and even – the toilet! Wall Decals can withstand the humidity of a bathroom but the surfaces need to be completely dry before applying.
  • Ensure that your application area is smooth, clean and dry. Don’t wash your wall before application. 

    HOW LONG WILL MY WALL DECAL LAST?

    Wall decals are perfect for temporary applications but will last for years with proper care. Indoors, wall decals will easily last for up to 4 years. They should be applied away from direct heat and sunlight as heat can release the adhesive and cause the decals to peel. To clean, just gently wipe with a damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals or cleaning agents. Outdoors, Wall Decals will last 2 to 3 years.

    HOW TO REMOVE YOUR WALL ART

    Wall decals are very easy to remove! Simply lift a corner or an edge with your fingernail and gently peel off the wall. For removal of wall decals from less porous surfaces such as glass, use a hairdryer (set on low heat) to warm the decal. This releases the adhesive and makes it even easier to peel off! Keep in mind that the less porous the surface the more effort it will take to remove Wall Decals.
