The PlayWall works best on clean, smooth, non-absorbent surfaces — such as flat-painted walls (matte, satin), glass, smooth wood, or doors. Avoid very textured or rough surfaces, freshly painted walls (let them cure for 3 -4 weeks), or walls prone to humidity.
Before You Apply: Wall Surfaces to Avoid
To make sure your decals stay secure and your walls stay happy, it’s important to know which surfaces aren’t ideal for application.
🚫 Walls That Don’t Work Well
Specialty & Protective Paints
Some modern paints are designed to repel stains, dirt, or even improve air quality. While great for maintenance, these coatings prevent decals from bonding properly—so adhesion may be weak or fail altogether.
Rough or Decorative Surfaces
Walls with heavy texture, uneven finishes, or wallpaper create gaps that stop decals from sticking smoothly. Applying decals on wallpaper is also not recommended, as removal may cause damage.
Aged or Fragile Paintwork
If paint is peeling, cracked, or already compromised, applying decals may worsen the condition. Adhesion pressure can lift paint from the surface when applied or removed.
About Wall Care & Responsibility
Every home is different, and wall conditions can vary widely.
Potential for Wall Marks
Applying or removing decals may leave marks or minor damage—especially on flat white or matte-painted walls, which tend to be more delicate.
