• Durability
  The outdoor durability of the unprinted film is 3 year. Indoor durability for DecoMural is 3 - 5 years with up to 2 year removability after application on a sound surface.
  • When applying DecoMural at temperatures below 50°F the soft vinyl face will become brittle. Therefore special care must be employed during installation to keep from tearing the face.


• Shelf Life
  2 years from date of manufacture when stored at 60/77°F (15/25°C) and 50% relative humidity in the original package

  To achieve the best possible print quality, please make sure that the correct ICC profiles or printer settings are used. Profiles can be obtained from our Distributors or can be downloaded from www.mactac.com/graphics. Printer and heater settings and ICC profiles can also be downloaded from some O.E.M. or software manufacturer’s websites. The ICC profiles are provided solely as a customer resource. Print environments, the individual nature of printing systems, inks and software can significantly affect output.


• Limitations
  Due to the wide variability of interior walls, sealants and paints, no claims for unsuccessful applications to or removal from painted wall surfaces are accepted by Mactac. It is the users’ responsibility to determine the products suitability for the intended wall.
  
  Over lamination of this inkjet-printed media is not recommended. This product is not designed for outdoor use.


• Application
  Drywall is an extremely porous surface and sealing it up is difficult yet critical for graphic applications. Some drywall and painted surfaces can result in poor adhesion for a wide variety of reasons. Including:
  
  • Highly textured surfaces.
  • High humidity areas or moisture behind the drywall.
  • New drywall (anything less than one year old is considered new) does a lot of moving as the new building settles. And new drywall will shrink due to its relatively high moisture content, finally, new drywall will outgas as it dries out. All of these things may result in failure like edge lifting, or bubbles and blisters forming under the graphic.
  • Drywall must be finished to level 4 or 5 for pressure sensitive wall graphics to be successful.
  • Different paints require different cure times. Heavily pigmented paints take significantly longer time to cure. Environmental conditions can speed up or retard cure times. Graphics applied to un-cured paint may fail. Consult with your paint manufacturer for the proper primer and paint to use and their respective cure time.
  • For these reasons, there is no guarantee for Pressure Sensitive graphics in drywall applications.
  • Use the same lot number to complete a job. This will avoid potential lot to lot variability in the canvas structure.


• Printing and Handling Recommendations
  Always test your combination of inks and Deco-media prior to commercial use.
  • 1) Printing Conditions: Print in conditioned pressroom at ±73°F (23°C) and 50% RH. The maximum allowable ink saturation is 270%.
  • 2) Drying Requirements: Solvent, Eco-solvent and Mild-solvent inkjet prints require 24 - 48 hr. drying time - open to the air. Inks do not dry when printed media is rolled up. DecoMural is not designed for lamination.
  • 3) Transportation Conditions: To allow for easy transportation, Deco Satin can be rolled up, with the image out, with a minimum diameter of 6 inches (15cm). When the image is not protected by an overlaminate, make sure the print is completely dry and protected in a plastic bag. During transportation or storage, avoid exposing them to extreme temperature and humidity changes.
