FAQ
What is a Muralistick?
It is a mural that looks hand-painted on your wall, but
it's actually removable. The inconvenience, time and budget
associated with painting a room or applying wallpaper simply
disappear. You are now free to experience the fun and ease of
transforming your child's room in a matter of minutes.
Is a Muralistick real art?
Yes, each Muralistick was originally painted by an artist
using either watercolors, acrylic, oil, or digital paint
brushes.
Why do people say that Muralistick is not a
sticker?
This is a comment that we have heard from just about
every customer! Once they see a Muralistick installed in their
room, they are shocked with how they appear to be painted on the
wall. They all say, "We can't believe that they are stickers! They
look just like paint! "
How are Muralistick's made?
After the artist is finished with the paintings, they are
digitally reproduced using high quality scanners and are
printed using environmentally friendly inks.
What are the advantages of a Muralistick Mural?
-The murals look hand-painted, but are actually
re-moveable.
-The material Muralistick's are printed on is so thin that it will
wrap around corners, over moldings and over wall
imperfections. A Muralistick actually behaves just like
paint.
-Muralistick murals are created through the eyes of traditional
mural artists. The artist visualizes the room as one complete mural
as they create the paintings. This is why Muralistick's appear to
be hand-painted mural, vs a bunch of stickers on the wall.
For example: If only one (3ft x 6ft) page of Fairies is
purchased, the composition of fairies is designed so that they all
interact with each other.

Yes, each piece is individually cut out . All you need to
do it peel the piece from the backing and apply it to your

By simply placing a fingernail under the edge, the
Muralistick can be peeled off. There is no

How easy is it to remove a full mural if I wanted to
bring it to another house?

off the wall and lay them on the backing paper. (They will

and bring it to the next house. Re-apply the mural pieces on
the new walls.
What happens if the mural piece sticks to itself
?
Relax and take a deep breath. Gently peel the edges away
from each other. Please be gentle doing this, because the
Muralistick may stretch out of shape. If it does, it may not lay
flat on the wall.
