Here are four wall quotes that I did this past weekend. I used oracal 631 and had a rough time getting the fancy script to stick on the tan wall. There was not enough area to the quote for it to have a good bond with the wall. The masking kept pulling the quote so I finally cut the masking down the middle and worked one line at a time. I used my squeege to press down on the letters while removing the masking. The Disney font went in a playroom and the Rubber Ducky went in the bathroom.

That's a kind of job that we shoud get more of, now that they are doing it on some of the HGTV decorating shows. Next time, try hitting it with a hair dryer, then use a rivet brush on it while warm and let cool prior to removal of the transfer tape.

I tried the hairdryer and then rubbing with the squeege but it didn't work. I need to invest in a rivet brush.
