Does Alphabet Designs work in the bathroom? Yes! On the wall that is...if you install it right on the bathtub or shower it will not stay for long!

Is my Alphabet Design easily removable? Yes! Our vinyl is a low tack adhesive that is safe for surfaces. However, if you run a hair blower over your lettering before removing it, it will help release the adhesive. Since the vinyl is removable, make sure your little angels won't be able to reach!

How do I get it on straight? To achieve a straight alignment, make sure you align the lettering of the quote and not the white paper around it. Measure from all sides and always measure twice!

Does Alphabet Designs stick to everything? Most paints and textured surfaces are compatible with our vinyl. However, with fabric , sandy walls and some matte paints it may not stick. We suggest to ask for a sample if you are not sure. Make sure you wait at least one month after painting your wall to hang your designs. After a month, try with a piece of masking tape, and if it doesn't remove any paint you are ready to go! (Make sure you try in an inconspicuous area!

How long will my Alphabet Design stick for? As long as you want it to! The sun will fade your paint over time so when you remove your design there may be a faint ghost line from the lettering.

Can I clean my walls after I apply it? Of course, just make sure you use cleaners not containing alcohol or abrasives.
