About Bade Newby Are you looking for a new way to decorate your room, office, or workspace besides the conventional wall paint? Planning on putting up signs, graphics, and advertisements but your space isn’t just enough?

Then, you might be interested in trying decoration wall and floor stickers.

Applying wall and floor stickers are not as hard as it sounds. Here are some dos and don’ts that you need to remember when applying wall, floor, and window stickers:

Dos  Select a perfect space for you to use a sticker - an empty wall needing a

fresh look, the floor entrance with a flat surface, or the glass window of your store.

 Take the measurements of the selected surface first, and then find the right

sticker size that fits.

 Make sure the sticker is suitable for the type of surface where you want to

install it.

 Clean the selected surface you intend to apply a sticker to use a sponge and

soap.

 Draw guidelines for the position, if possible, to avoid mistakes in placing

the sticker.  When the adhesive side is already removed, then place the sticker as close as you can with the guidelines.

Dos  Using a squeegee or a straight ruler, start from the middle of the sticker

and then outward to the edges in smoothing out and removing the air bubbles.  Dampen the paper backing of the sticker (the one protecting the face of

the sticker), if you have trouble removing it.  You can clean the applied floor, wall, and window stickers with mild

soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals that may dissolve the plastic laminate of the sticker.  You can use a clear adherent to seal your decoration sticker to preserve

it longer.

Don’ts  Don’t choose or avoid floor and wall surfaces with cracks or bumps.  Don’t place the edges of your sticker along with a tile edge and grout of

floor joint.  Don’t put a sticker on a damp surface. Make sure the surface is dry

before applying the sticker.  Don’t use glass and hard-surface cleaners when cleaning the windows

for sticker application, since it may prevent the sticker from adhering well.  Don’t push the squeegee or ruler too hard in smoothing out the air bubbles; this may scratch the sticker itself.

Don’ts  Don’t apply the sticker to a freshly painted concrete floor/wall and

those surfaces with the newly applied protective coating. Refer to the manufacturer’s recommendation or wait for a few weeks for it to be completely cured before putting the decoration sticker.  Don’t use a hairdryer after successful application of the sticker. This

will only loosen the adhesive bond between the sticker and the surface.

That’s it! You can now start applying decoration stickers successfully on your own just by following these simple tips and tricks when using decoration stickers for your home makeover!
