Can I apply it to textured walls?

Does peel-and-stick wallpaper damage walls?

Not if applied properly. Before installing, be sure to prep the walls by making sure they are painted, clean, and dry.

Does it leave a residue when removed?

Is it easy to install?

Installation is easy and straightforward. To ensure success, have the right tools on hand before you get started. You will need a utility knife, squeegee, mild cleaning products, and tape.

With tools ready, tape the paper in the middle to “hinge” it to the surface, peel it from the back at the top, cut the backer, and slowly use the squeegee to push out any bubbles. Before getting started, watch this video on how to apply peel-and-stick wallpaper.

Can I remove and reuse peel-and-stick wallpaper?

Wallpaper should be reapplied only once and immediately after applying. For example, do this to reposition the wallpaper if it isn’t straight.
