How To Install

How to Install in 3 Easy Steps!

ALWAYS START WITH CLEAN, DRY & SMOOTH WALLS AND SURFACES

Measure & Peel

MEASURE the wall height and precut strips to match wall height, noting to add an extra 1 to 2 inches for trimming at both the top and bottom

 

CUT and trim with a razor-sharp knife to help maintain a smooth, clean cut

 

Starting on the left side of your wall, measure out from the corner 20.5" and mark the wall lightly with a pencil

 

Use this mark for your LEVEL, drawing a straight vertical line

 

This line is th guide for your first strip so it is important that it is straight

 

PEEL about 12" of the backing away from the paper 

Tools You'll Need

  • Tape Measure
  • Level & Pencil
  • Utility or Crafting Knife
  • Straight Edge
  • Plastic Smoother
  • Step Stool or Ladder
  • A Friend!

Stick

STICK the paper to the top of the wall, allowing that 1-2 extra inches to overlap the ceiling which will be trimmed off later

 

ALIGN the right side of the strip with your vertical line and lightly press the edge to the wall along the line. If needed you can reposition to ensure a vertical seam

 

Working from the top to the bottom, PULL the backing away from the paper as you evenly press the paper to the wall. Do not force the paper and be careful not to pull or stretch the product or the pattern will not align

 

To achieve the best results, we recommend having one person guide the paper at the top and along the seam, while the second holds the opposite edge away from the wall until the seams are aligned

 

We advise that you OVERLAP the joined wallpaper by 1/16 inch, this will avoid any shrinking that may occur due to varying room temperatures. Using the plastic smoother make your way down the strip

Trim

REPEAT this process, aligning your next strip to the right edge of your previous strip

 

TRIM off the excess material at the ceiling and baseboard with your utility or crafting knife

 

Once all steps have been completed, ENJOY your newly wallpapered space!


We do not recommend applying NextWall Peel & Stick items to textured, unfinished or exterior walls or surfaces. 

Removal

  • Peel from any corner and begin to firmly pull away from the wall
