 HOW TO INSTALL YOUR PERCEPTIONS PHOTOWALL/DOOR MURAL


READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE HANGING

.
These instructions are intended for mural application in normal conditions, using the adhesive provided in a working temperature of 65 to 75 degrees F. The adhesive provided is a water-based paste, which is suitable for most walls and doors, but will not adhere to steel, concrete or glass.


A. The wall or door surface must be clean, dry, smooth, primed and sealed prior to installation of your mural. DO NOT HANG ON A GLOSS FINISHED WALL OR DOOR.

B. The materials you will need to install your mural are: CONTAINER in which to mix the glue; ROLLER to spread the glue; SCISSORS and KNIFE for trimming the edges, if necessary; and a WALLPAPER BRUSH.

C. The Adhesive supplied in the tube should be mixed as follows:


# OF PANELS SIZE AMOUNT OF WATER
8 – Panel  12’ 8 ¾ X 9’  2.25 Quarts
4 – Panel  6 ‘ 4” X 9” 1.25 Quarts
4 – Panel [Panoramic] 12’ 8 ¾ X 6” 1.25 Quarts
2 – Panel 33” X 86” 1 Pint

Slowly pour the adhesive into warm water, stirring constantly, and allow to thicken for 20 minutes before use. Now, fit the design to your wall or door. The gross dimensions of the murals are listed above in the unglued state. The sections may expand individually to a greater or lesser extent once the adhesive has been applied. Therefore, it may be necessary to overlap the horizontal seam 1/4 inch and the vertical seam up to 1/8 inch to achieve the best pattern match.

D. To ensure the design is centered, make a guide line by drawing a horizontal line equidistant from the floor and ceiling across the wall of the door.

E. Paste the individual parts one by one. Apply adhesive to the back of section 1 (bottom left hand piece) of the mural first. Apply paste regularly, waiting about 6 to 7 minutes for the paper to relax. Do not fold ends together as with ordinary wallpaper since they may stick together. Handle each section carefully in order not to damage the mural when wet. Take care that the soaking time of each part is equal. Avoid getting paste on the face of the mural. If any paste does get on the face wipe off gently with a wet sponge before the adhesive dries. DO NOT RUB since this action may cause damage to the mural.

F. Section 2 should now be placed to the right of section 1. Continue installing the mural sections in positions as indicated.
 

G. Make sure all seams are brushed or rolled completely.


H. Please note: the instructions above refer to normal wall surfaces using the right (recommended) paste at normal room temperature. For difficult wall surfaces and extreme climatic conditions, consult your local paint or wallpaper dealer for the best paste to use. All normal wallpaper pastes can be used with Perceptions Photomurals. All instructions must always be carefully followed.

 

Now! Step back and admire the beautiful new addition to your room.
