Wall stickers and decals for your home?

[Chris Wool]

if your epson is water based you will have less choice perhaps have a word with
papergraphics

[Jason Davies]

You’ll be lucky to find anything you can rely on if you are worried about it leaving a mark or peeling paint off the wall when removed. Nothing works as every wall is different. We’ve experimented with a few but won’t risk our reputation on anything out there that is vinyl based.

[Shawn Bentley]

Hinchris thanks for reply, will try them, I can also use a roland Eco solvent printer if that makes a difference ,thanks in advance

[Shawn Bentley]

Thanks Jason, what do all tehse companies use where they peel on and off its almost like a transfer material.

[Jason Davies]

Most of them don’t care if it peels paint off the wall, it’s in their terms and conditions. The ones that actually work are not solvent based.

[Shawn Bentley]

Thanks Jason do u know the one that are not solvent based and best way of printing them ?thanks in advance regards shawn

[Jason Davies]

Sorry, I don’t, I’m not sure it exists. We’ve looked at the material companies use and it is generally Rirama or Oracal. None of which I would touch as it’s basically short term internal vinyl.

[Shawn Bentley]

No probs Jason thanks for reply and advice regards shawn

Hi Shawn

We use a printable wall paper from Arlon which has a removable re position able adhesive we print it on our roland XR640 not sure if they do a waterbased printable one try William Smith.

[Shawn Bentley]

Hi lee, thanks for that will try William smith Monday, many thanks

I have used some from Neschen, it works very well. self adhesive backed wallpaper.
when i say some, im meaning hundreds of metres without problems. still im no expert in any shape or form. but worked well for me.
you can buy it via Paperlinx…

as for clean removal etc…
dont go there. as has been said, every wall is different.
unless its professionally painted walls using a primer/bonding coating then painted etc there’s a great chance it will lift paint in the removal process.

you can however get wall-art vinyl’s that come with an easy peel type adhesive on the rear that allows you to lift and lay multiple times till you get it on. kinda like a post-it adhesive on the rear. i know oracal do this range but you would need to ask if there is a digital print equivalent.

[Shawn Bentley]

Hi Robert thanks for your help very helpful, with the orical range how would they print ? Sorry if sounds stupid, new to this side of things, thanks in advance all been very helpful.

[Shawn Bentley]

Hi Robert, do u know which product u used from neschen and where I can get it from in uk as I’ve googled them and it seems to be in Germany, many thanks in advance, regards shawn

[Robert Lambie]

Hi Shaun

Yes i buy ours via "Paperlinx" who have depots throughout the UK.
I am sorry but i do not know the product code etc (im hopeless with codes/series etc)
ill try dig it out Monday and post here. alternatively someone browsing the boards may know.

Just remembered i used a product similar by "Muraspec" from papergraphics mentioned above. that was a great product too but i hear they pulled it off the market due to some issues.

[Shawn Bentley]

Thanks for that Robert helped loads, many thanks in advance,

[Peter Munday]

I think this is the stuff your looking for http://www.phototex.co.uk/ great product by hefty price.

I use one from APS called TSPP7SA it prints great on the latex printer but is a bitch to cut due to the backing sheet.

Peter

[Shawn Bentley]

Hi peter thank u very much for that everyone’s been a great help tonight, really appreciate it regards shawn

[Alex Crosbie]

If you’re applying it yourself the phototex material will save you a fortune in time!

It’s also removable so is ideal for rented properties that need to be put back to original condition when vacated.

If you keep the backing paper it can even be reused somewhere else so has uses for pop up events and exhibition graphics in hotels.

[Shawn Bentley]

Hi Alex thanks for advice been really helpful, do u know the code or name of the phototex and do I get it from paperlinx ? Many thanks all ur help is appreciated a lot I just want to get the right product from the start, many thanks shawn

[Nicola McIntosh]

i use this for wall graphics perfect if graphics are to be removed Easydot

http://www.roberthorne.co.uk/products/e … ve-banner/

[Robert Lambie]

easydot is great nik, agreed!

there is something that needs to be considered with easydot though, i forgot what it is. could it be the time its left on will then pull paint or something?
sorry i could be wrong but sure was told of a downside recently, hence using the neschen from paperlinx as opposed to the easydot from them.

[Martin Pearson]

Did you also forget that you had already replied to this post Robert :lol1: :lol1: :lol1: :lol1: :lol1: :lol1: :lol1: :lol1:

[Robert Lambie]

what was that martin?

[Robert Lambie]

what was that martin?

seems to be an echo in here… 😉

[Fabrice Menard]

for those who recommends phototex: i tested a sample and it looks like it is not cutting plotter compliant so no contour cut possible. Are you contour cutting phototex?

[Shawn Bentley]

Hi all thank u for all ur replies and help, many thanks regards shawn

[Colin Crow]

For removable graphics we use Gekotex printable polyester available from tepede graphics. It has a Matt slightly textured appearance, contour cuts nicely and is not too expensive. Reposition and removal is good as long as the paintwork is sound.

We use solvent but there may be a pigment ink version. Speak to Clare at tepede on 01403 786867
