Masking Tape 2
The Masking Tape Trial
Better Safe Than Sorry
We suggest that you do a tape test on your wall before applying the sticker itself, to make sure the surface is suitable.
While tape acts as a good indicator, it is always better to use a sample of the material your graphic will be produced on. For more information on samples, click here.
-
1. Stick a strip of masking tape approximately 30cm long to the area you want to apply your sticker.
-
2. Leave it undisturbed overnight.
-
3. In the morning if it looks exactly as you left it, great! However if the tape has come away or fallen off, the wall sticker might also. We suggest you purchase a sample to retest the area or choose another surface to test.
NB. It is important that you do not apply a wall sticker to a wall that has been painted within the last six weeks or has an issue with damp as well as any surface that is heavily textured or is in close proximity to a heat or cooling source.
