subject: How To Remove Wall Stickers [print this page]


Wall stickers are used as decorations for different types of walls in a house but they are most used for bedroom walls. Wall stickers as well as other room decorations can be difficult to remove after a few years. You might decide that it is time for a change but will first have to go through the difficulties of removing your wall stickers. One of the main problems with removing wall stickers is that they might leave remnants on the wall which makes it difficult to place new wall stickers or even paint on the wall.

Using Heat to Remove Wall Stickers

Removing wall stickers is not a very hard task. In fact, it is quite simple and takes very little time to be done if you remove them using the right methods. There are two main ways of removing wall stickers. First of all, heat can be used to remove wall stickers on any wall or wood surfaces. Any heat sources can be used to heat the edge of the sticker that you are trying to take off. The heat makes the sticker loose. You can then start taking it off slowly. Trying to take off heated wall stickers too quickly might result in them tearing because some parts which did not receive sufficient heat might be more difficult to take off. You need to keep heating the sticker until the sticker is fully removed.

Using Window Cleaner to Remove Wall Stickers

Another common way to remove wall stickers especially those used on windows or glass is through the use of window cleaner. The window cleaner should be sprayed onto the sticker and left for a while. After a few minutes, bubbles will start forming under the sticker and the edges will start to come up. When this happens you can start removing the wall stickers. Sometimes wall stickers might leave residues behind and you might have to use some more window cleaner to remove the residues.

Using Removable Wall Stickers

It is uncommon to find someone who will want to use wall stickers forever. If you are someone who likes changes, you will probably want to change your wall stickers after a year or two. In such cases, removable wall stickers might be the best solution for you in that they are not only easy to remove but they are reusable. You can also use them at a later time or on another wall. Removable wall stickers are very popular and can be found almost everywhere.
