The Great Decorative Look Of Wall Decals

By Libby O. Mosciski


Vinyl wall decals are produced in a variety of different styles in order to bring a unique look and texture to your home dcor. There are tons of options for you to think about when you want to add a decal to room in your house in order to introduce a new look to the dcor; take your time to find decals that really fit your personal taste. One of the great benefits of using adhesive vinyl decals is that they do not damage your walls in any way; this is in stark contrast to most wall art, such as frames and hanging dcor, which can strip paint and leave big holes in the wall. If you would like to utilize decals to adorn your home, consider the following tips on how to install them safely and properly.

In an effort for your wall decals to properly adhere to the wall where you want to place them the surface of the wall must be absolutely clean. The adhesive bond cannot form properly between the wall and the decal if there are any paint flakes or dust particles in between. This applies to any surface that you will put your decals on such as concrete, wood, glass, and metal. Do not forget that decals do not attach uniformly to recently painted walls so wait two weeks after painting is completed to put up decals.

The grand majority of wall decals are packaged along with properly fitted transfer tape that makes installation easy. Locate a smooth surface and set the decal there so that you can ensure that the transfer tape is totally in contact with the vinyl; do this by running a credit card along the tape and decal. To make sure that your decal gets placed on the wall at the right height and angle, draw guide marks on the wall before you try to attach it.

Once you have the decal aligned in the right spot, start applying it to the wall with your credit card or tool to spread the adhesive flat against the wall. Cover the entire surface to ensure that there are no air bubbles beneath the vinyl.

When you are all done, you can peel back the transfer tape to reveal your perfectly placed decal dcor. You can discover a massive variety of wall decals at online retailers; they also tend to be much less expensive online than they are at local stores.
