    Hi Tim,

    Metamark 4 matt should be fine, all monomeric films are very similar.
    Make sure area is out of direct sunlight.
    Use a low tack application tape and post heat onto the wall after application to ensure a good adhesion.
    Suggest you do a test somewhere out of sight to make sure emulsion has a good key – paint that has not adhered properly can come away with app tape.

    Hi Gil,
    How long will the M4 vinyl last, won’t it shrink and peel off? i stayed away from the M4 range for this reason but it does have a wider selection of vinyls to chose from. What are your thoughts?

    Thanks,
    Seun

    Hi Seun,

    As it’s for an internal application a monomeric film is appropriate.

    M4 is a good budget film.
