How To Apply - It's easier than most people think!

Note: There are two video tabs above. The “Full Video” contains detailed steps for large pieces of art. The “Quick Video” is a super-short version which you may use for small pieces of art.

Zama Designs have three layers – the transfer paper (clear), the design, and the paper backing. For installation you will need:

  • A dry lint-free cloth to clean the wall surface
  • Plastic card (like a credit card)
  • Masking tape
  • Two persons (recommended for large pieces of art)

1. Use a lint-free cloth to clean the surface you are going to install on.

2. Turn over the art on a flat surface and apply even pressure with the plastic card.

3. Slowly peel off the backing of the art, ensuring the art remains on the transfer tape.

4. Apply the transfer tape and art to the wall. Then apply pressure with a plastic card.

5. Slowly peel off the transfer tape, ensuring that the art stays on the wall. If the art is peeling with the transfer then apply more pressure.

6. Run fingers over the art with a bit of pressure.

Alhamdulillah! Enjoy!

How To Apply your Wall Art

ZamaDesigns have three layers—the transfer paper (clear), the design, and the paper backing. Two people are recommended for installation, and you will need:

  • A dry cloth to clean the wall surface
  • Debit card, driver’s license or any other plastic card
  • Masking tape
  • A level tool

Step 1 Make sure your surface is CLEAN. Wipe the surface of your wall with a lint-free cloth to make sure that it is dust free, oil free, smooth, clean and dry. – Step 2 DSC01557Place your ZamaDesign on a flat hard surface. Take the debit card or any other plastic card and smooth out any air bubbles (working from the center out) that may have formed during shipping.

Step 3

DSC01561If your ZamaDesign has multiple art on the same sheet or if it is a large sized ZamaDesign that has separate parts of the art fitted into one sheet, cut them into separate pieces.

–

Step 4 DSC01563Arrange your ZamaDesign on the wall using a masking tape. Make sure it is centered and in level. You may use a level to do this. Use masking tape to create a “hinge” in the middle of the art.

–

Step 5 Starting from above the hinge, peel the backing pulling closely to the surface. If Art sticks to the paper backing while peeling, just simply roll back, press the art onto the transfer paper, and peel it off again. Once you have reached the hinge part you may cut off the backing. DSC01565DSC01566

Step 6 Once the backing is removed, place the transparent transfer paper with art on the wall starting from the middle hinge and working your way out. Use a debit or any plastic card to gently smooth out your ZamaDesign onto the wall. Repeat the same for below the hinge and the rest of the art. DSC01568DSC01572DSC01574

Step 7 DSC01578After applying your ZamaDesign on the wall, the last step is to remove the transfer paper. Starting at one corner, slowly remove the transfer paper, pulling closely to the surface. If any part of the art sticks to the transfer paper or comes off, simply roll back a bit, press the art on the wall then continue peeling. Cut the access transfer paper if it becomes unmanageable. After peeling away the transfer paper smooth the art onto the wall using your fingers. If there’s any bubbles trapped inside simply take a needle and poke the bubbled area a couple of times, then smooth it out with your hands.

Alhamdulillah, enjoy your you wall art!
