- Squeegee

STEP ONE: PREPPING THE WALL

Ensure your wall is flat, dry and free of dust. Clean with a damp paper towel and let dry completely before beginning. 

STEP 2: INSTALLATION

1. Start peeling away 1-2 feet of the paper backing from the top of your first roll and fold it backwards.

2. Place a few inches of the exposed back in place, with at least 2-4" of the paper above the top edge of the wall. Make sure the panel is straight. If not just remove it and try again.
3. Once the panel is straight, adhere the paper onto the wall from the center of the panel.

4. Use a squeegee and gently smooth the paper from the center out to each edge. This will help remove large bubbles. Be careful not to scrape the design.

5. Peel and fold down more paper backing and install the next 4-6" segment, smoothing from the center as before.

6. Move down the wall in small segments until you reach the bottom of the panel.
7. Add the next panel directly next to the first panel. There is no overlap in our paper. The paper will sit right next to its neighboring panel.
8. Repeat with the remaining panels. Once you reach the end of a wall simply use your sharp edge to cut the extra paper off the edge, bottom & top of the wall.
