3.0 EXECUTION

3.1 Inspection

1. The Contractor shall provide a complete copy of DreamScape’s current Hanging Instructions to the installer pertaining to the installation of the wallcovering. ALL

INSTALLATIONS MUST CONFORM TO MANUFACTURERS CURRENT

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND PRODUCT TECHINICAL

INFORMATION.

2. All labels shall be checked for accuracy by the installer to insure that the shipment is received as ordered.

3. If no defect is evident before installation, the material should be inspected after three (3) panels are installed. If any defect is evident at this time (or any point of the installation) no further material should be applied and Contractor should be contacted IMMEDIATELY.

3.2 Surface Preparation

A. All hanging surfaces must be clean, smooth, dry, undamaged, free of mold, mildew, grease or stains, and structurally intact. All loose paint and other wallcoverings must be removed. If moisture is present, immediately identify and eliminate the source(s) of the moisture and verify that all wall surfaces are completely dry before proceeding.

B. Any mold or mildew MUST be removed from walls and hanging surfaces prior to installation. Walls should not contain in excess of 4% residual moisture content. A moisture meter should be used to determine moisture content. Moisture infiltration and accumulation can lead to mold or mildew growth and must be corrected PRIOR to the installation of the wallcovering. This product is intended for use in buildings that are properly designed and maintained to avoid moisture infiltration, condensation and or accumulation at wall cavities and wall surfaces, particularly in warm, humid climates. Old walls shall also be treated with bleach, Lysol and/or other approved, mildew –inhibiting products in order to inhibit further mildew growth.

C. Proper surface preparation is key to getting great results. To prepare the surface properly, we recommend that you prime all surfaces with a universal, white-pigmented, mold inhibiting wallcovering primer.

D. For new drywall construction, a coat of wallcovering primer shall be applied to the surface before application of wallcovering. Use a primer that dries to a solid color to conceal drywall joints.

E. Use only a lead pencil for marking walls and back of wallcovering. Do not use ballpoint or marking pen, they will bleed through the surface.

F. Do not install wallcovering unless a temperature above 65º degrees F is maintained in both areas of installation and storage for at least 48 hours prior to installation.

3.3 Installation

1. If the application is a textured or non-matched wallcovering pattern, reverse hanging of alternate panels is required to ensure color continuity from strip to strip. If the application is a mural it is recommended that every other panel is rotated 180 degrees when printing to minimize the side-to-side color shift that may occur with each printer.

2. Determine whether the pattern match is random, straight across, or drop match.

Measure the wall height, allowing for pattern match, add 4 inches, and then cut the wallcovering. It will overlap onto the ceiling and the base approximately 2 inches.

Apply the recommended adhesive to the back using either a pasting machine or a paint roller. Work the adhesive in, to cover the back completely, especially near the edges. Fold each end toward the middle, pasted sides together, aligning the edges carefully so they do not dry out. CAUTION: Do not crease wallcovering. Allow to “relax” for ten minutes (booking). This will allow the adhesive to penetrate the wallcovering fabric, which is important to a successful installation.

3. WITH ALL DIRECTIONAL PATTERNS, IT IS IMPORTANT TO LINE UP PATTERNS

AT EYE LEVEL ALLOWING ANY DRIFT IN LINEUP TO RUN OFF TOWARD

CEILING AND FLOOR. THE STANDARD ALLOWANCE IS ONE QUARTER OF AN

INCH UP OR DOWN. IF PATTERN IS LINED UP AT THE CEILING THE PATTERN

WILL BEGIN MISALIGNMENT SOONER AND THE GAP WILL BE LARGER. ALSO,

MOST PATTERNS WILL BE VIEWED AT EYE LEVEL THEREFORE IT IS THAT

AREA THAT NEEDS TO LOOK ALIGNED. IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS

ABOUT PATTERN LINEUP, CONTACT SUPPLIER. BE SURE FIRST DROP OF

WALLCOVERING IS SQUARE ON WALL BY PLUMBING THE WALL AND USING

A LEVEL.

4. Avoid burnishing the face of the material. Use a wallcovering brush or a plastic scraper to smooth the wallcovering onto the wall. For optimal durability we recommend the use of a liquid topcoat to protect the surface of the wallcovering pattern from stain and abrasion.

5. Do not rub. Do not allow vinyl adhesive to dry on surface as it may leave a white residue. Wash off excess paste from face of wallcovering as you hang it with a cellulose sponge. The cellulose sponge must be rinsed in clean water after every use. Blot dry with a clean cloth.

6. Place the second strip to the edge of the first strip. Tape seams before overlapping and double cutting to avoid getting adhesive on the wallcovering. If paste does get on the vinyl, clean it off immediately with clean warm water and blot dry with a clean lint less towel. Use a soft bristle brush to wash the ceiling and the baseboard to remove any paste residue. Do not leave any overlap on the seams since vinyl will not adhere to itself. *Seams should be vertical, have a tight fit, and be free from air and paste bubbles. Seams should not be located closer than 6” to corners.

7. After three panels are smoothed to wall surface and excess paste removed, examine the installed panels for color uniformity. Any objectionable variations in colormatch, pattern match, etcKshould be immediately communicated to the printer for inspection before proceeding further with installation.

8. After installation, the walls and wallcovering should be monitored for potential moisture or vapor infiltration or accumulation. Any such infiltration/accumulation after installation must be promptly eliminated in order to reduce the risk of mold/mildew growth.

3.4 Clean up and Completion

Upon completion of work, remove all surplus material and debris from work site. All work sites must be clean and orderly upon installation crew departure.
