FAQs
Can these decals be applied to bathroom tiles?
Yes, they can be applied to smooth, clean tiles. Ensure the tile surface is dry and free from grout lines directly where the decal will be placed for best adhesion.
Will these leave a sticky residue on my walls?
No, these decals are designed to be removable and repositionable without leaving sticky residue behind when applied and removed correctly from compatible surfaces.
How large are the individual ivy decals?
The decal sizes range from 2 inches x 2 inches to 8 inches x 5 inches, offering variety for creative arrangements.
Can I cut the decals to change their shape?
While they are pre-cut for ease of use, you could theoretically cut them further, but it might affect their overall appearance and adhesion.
Are these decals waterproof?
They can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth, but they are not designed to be submerged in water or exposed to excessive moisture, especially around seams.
How long do the decals typically last on a wall?
The longevity depends on the surface and environmental conditions. When applied correctly to a smooth, clean surface, they can last for an extended period. Their removability means they are best suited for temporary or seasonal decor changes.
What should I do if I make a mistake while applying?
If you misplace a decal, carefully lift it from the surface immediately and reposition it. Smooth it down again to ensure good contact.
Troubleshooting
Decals not sticking well
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and completely smooth. Avoid application on textured, recently painted, or non-stick surfaces. Press firmly from the center outwards.
Bubbles appearing after application
Gently lift the edge of the decal and reapply, smoothing from the center to the edge. For small bubbles, a pinprick can release trapped air.
Decal removed paint upon taking it down
This can happen with freshly painted walls. Always allow paint to cure for at least two weeks. For delicate paint, warm the decal slightly with a hairdryer on a low setting before peeling slowly.
Decals are difficult to peel from the backing
Ensure you are peeling from the correct edge indicated or where the decal meets the backing paper. If stubborn, try using a thin, flat tool to gently lift an edge.
