Walltastic WT41745 Dinosaur Land Wall Mural, Green 120.08 x 96.07 inch

Oh my goodness... what a great mural! It creates such an impact on my son and people. The pixels are clean. The dimension is 8' x 10'... in 10 sections... of 2' x 4' each. It comes in a roll so I put each section flat on the floor for 24 hours. They're made of seriously durable vinyl, I'm impressed. Okay, how to put it on: you need to buy mural glue and 2 mural brushes to spread the glue (buy more than enough glue as you don't want to run back to the store as I did - you need about 3 round jars of glue about 8 inches wide x 6 inches deep). Then you have to (buy) and cut 10 pieces of paper larger than 2' x 4' ahead of time (about 3' x 5') so that you can turn over a mural section onto each and spread the glue (the glue you spread will go pass the section edges and onto the paper that you put under it instead of on your table or on the floor.) Once you've used that paper-shield it will have glue on it so you can't use it again for the next section.) I marked ahead of time with a pencil on the wall where I wanted the mural sections to be glued as a guide as the ceiling and wall were not as straight as they seemed... this way I knew where the mural would end 10 feet down and made adjustments before I put on the mural. Once you start applying the glue at the back of a section, you have about 5 minutes before it starts to dry... it takes a while to apply the glue (about 4 minutes) as the section absorbs it so much... I started from the middle and on towards the edges with someone else (hence why you need 2 brushes). Apply it evenly and quickly (and don't miss a spot especially on the edges): the more time that goes by after the glue is applied, the longer the paper will stretch: this means that if you apply more glue and took longer to do so on one section (or on one part of that section) than on the next section, then the drawings on the mural won't align perfectly. (Yeah, I learned that the hard way but it still looks great. We noticed at first that some sections got 1/2 inch longer than the next one because we had applied more glue on it!) On each section there's are tiny blue lines near their edges to indicate how far to overlap the next sections... I did that, though I found later that once the sections were applied, they no longer stretched or retracted at all. I used a towel to flush out air pockets but I couldn't take them all out (but it still looks great) and a towel to dry my hands from the glue so not to leave finger marks on the mural. The more sections you put on, the tougher it gets as things align less and less, so start as straight as you can. In the end I had a 2 inch gap between the mural top and the ceiling so I painted that exposed part of the wall the same color as the mural and it doesn't show. I trimmed the edges with an exacto knife where it needed at the base boards. Took us roughly an intense hour, glad it's over, but it looks fantastic!

The long review above is very helpful - definitely read it before doing the install. This was fairly easy to hang with wallpaper paste and I have never done wallpaper before. I can’t imagine doing this with tape - you need to be able to slide the panels around and stretch them. Our wall has a bit of texture pattern in a few spots (not all over texture like knockdown) and that was not a problem. It took 2 of us about 2 hours start to finish. It looks amazing and the colors are bright.We used a large section of counter to brush on the paste, then waited about a minute before taking it to the wall. The pieces sometimes lined up perfectly and straight, and other times not as much. Where they did not line up perfectly we just stretched them to fit by holding it against the wall with one hand and using the other hand to stretch it again and again until it lined up. Then we used damp rags to smooth it out and push out any air bubbles, and finished with a shower squeegee bar to really brush it smooth and flat. There are a couple places where the overlap lines ended up showing or where the pictures didn't line up exactly right, but they are so minor you wouldn't ever notice unless you were closely scrutinizing the picture.It looks great! Don't be afraid of doing this even if you've never done wallpaper before, it's really not that hard.

This is an awesome addition to my son's room. It was a little tricky at first but after the third panel it was easy to do. I followed other reviews and suggestions and it helped out tremendously. I had plastered (very textured) walls and it held perfectly. The texture shows though and makes it look like a painting. Very pleased.

I would give this five stars but I gave it four because I don’t understand why they have to make it into 12 pieces! My recommendations: do not put the glue on the walls. Apply it to the back of each strip. Allow the paper to absorb and then apply it to the wall. Apply the wallpaper onto the wall within 2 to 3 minutes. The wallpaper does not line up 100% So you all know. You can actually stretch it a bit once it’s in the wall.Next, you will need a smoothing tool so you can get all the air bubbles out. You will be able to get most, but impossible to get them all out. The next day after everything has dried you will see that a lot of the air bubbles and wrinkles disappeared as the paper dried. My Biggest recommendation is be patient as this is annoying and time consuming. Lastly, the first pieces were the hardest but once you get them up you will develop a method to get it all going. Good luck! Your children are counting on you😂

I have never installed wallpaper and it came out beautiful. Like a few other reviewers stated some of the print pieces are a little off but it is not super noticeable I still love it and so does my son.

Quality is on par with cheap wallpaper. Definitely not thick vinyl as the description leads one to believe. As others have mentioned, need to liberally use paste and then get section up on the wall before the backing soaks it up. And yes it does stretch. After the first few strips I got it figured out and went a bit easier until the last couple strips as aligning the strips becomes more difficult. And why 12 strips, 6 upper and 6 lower instead of just 6 full length strips? Having to deal with the additional strips makes in more difficult to align. Maybe because it stretches too much for longer strips? Take care when working the strips into place and cleaning off excess paste to avoid damaging the image. Anyhow, it does look good once on the wall. Too bad it does not come in larger sizes ( I have 9 ft ceilings and 12 ft by 12 ft bedrooms)

My grandson is in love with his wall mural. It was an easy project I did with my daughter.

This looks amazing! Easy to put up and looks awesome! My son absolutely loves it, its been up a few months and still looks great. The detail and life like-ness is fab. Would highly recommend

mooie afbeelding alleen ze komen niet over een.

Looks great. The graphics are good and the overlap made installation much easier.

El articulo cumplio la expectativa.

Hyper facile à poser en étant tout de même un peu minutieux ! Le résultat est juste super beau et mon fils est le plus heureux ! Rapport qualité prix au top ! Je recommande les yeux fermés
