CLEAR THE WALL AND SPACE AROUND IT

• Remove everything that is on the wall like painting, photo frame, decorative items etc.
• Move all furniture to the centre of the room or away from the wall which is to be covered.
• Cover the floor beneath the wall with cardboard/newspaper or plastic sheet to protect your floor.
• Keep your Tool kit ready for preparing your wall. We suggest following tools- Hammer, screwdriver, sand paper, scraper, sponge, water bucket, waste bin, blade knife/cutter, paint roller, mask.

MAKE THE WALL SMOOTH AND CLEAN

• A plastered wall is a must and preferably with POP.
• Remove any nails, screws or any unwanted object which may damage your wall covering.
• Remove any old wallpaper before installation.
• Old, flaking or loose paint will need to be scraped using a sandpaper to get a smooth surface.
• For freshly painted walls, allow 2 to 3 weeks drying time before installing your mural.
• Treat your wall with a good quality wall sealer/ primer which must be white coloured.
• Wall surfaces MUST be smooth, flat and free of flaky paint, dust or other containments.

MUST DOS

• Wall must be free of any termites or seepage.
• In case of old painted walls, it is preferable to give 1 coat of white paint so that old paint does not show through in light coloured designs.
• Make sure the wall is clean, dry and smooth. A well-prepared wall leads to a great looking finish.
