UpperCase Living decals are adhesive embellishments applied to walls and decorative accessories. The collection, which is sold through home parties and independent consultants, includes inspirational sayings and a variety of design motifs. Removing any decal can be a laborious process, depending on the surface adhesion. Removal can range from simple to slightly difficult. There are, however, several ways to smoothly peel the decal from the wall without causing any damage to the wall or object's surface. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Lift the corners of the decal with your fingers. Slowly peel back the decal and remove from the surface. Do not forcibly remove the decal if it appears to be stuck.
2. Grasp the edge of the decal with a small needle. Stick the needle slightly into the decal and lift up. Alternatively, slide the needle underneath a corner or edge of the decal to loosen the adhesive.
3. Hold a blow dryer about 4 inches from the surface of the decal and and blow hot air onto it in 5- to 10-second increments to loosen the adhesive. Repeat as necessary.
4. Scrape the decal off of a glass surface with a razor blade. It's quick and the blade will not scratch the glass.
5. Sponge the wall or surface with soap and water to remove any remaining residue. Allow to air dry. Apply touch-up paint to any areas where paint was removed during the decal-removal process.
