How Do Wall Graphics Work?
Wall graphics are self-adhesive vinyl films or digitally printed decals applied directly to wall surfaces. You can apply the vinyl wall graphics both indoors and outdoors. They are produced from high-quality vinyl material and are available in two primary types:
​
-
Permanent Vinyl: This material forms a stronger bond, designed to last for years, and is suitable for long-term applications.
-
Removable Vinyl: Ideal for temporary applications where the graphic needs to be changed or removed without leaving residue.
Both types can be contour-cut to fit your design and finished with optional lamination for added durability and easier cleaning. Adhesive vinyl graphics are resistant to fading, tearing, and general wear. This makes them a durable, cost-effective alternative to painted murals, wallpaper, and printed canvas displays.

Types of Wall Graphics Available
A full range of wall graphic solutions is available to match your environment, wall surface, and how long you need the display to last. Each material is selected based on the specific conditions of your installation site.
Custom Wall Decals
Custom vinyl wall decals are digitally printed or plotter-cut graphics produced from pressure-sensitive adhesive vinyl. They are available in various sizes, shapes, and colors for both personal and commercial use. Custom wall decals can display logos, lettering, brand messaging, and decorative imagery. You can customize them in any size or shape to fit a specific wall space, panel, or design layout.
​
Vinyl decals are versatile and suitable for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, event venues, and professional environments of all kinds. Adhesive custom wall graphics are also relatively inexpensive compared to other forms of signage or advertising.
​
Removable Wall Decals
Removable wall decals use a low-tack adhesive that can be cleanly lifted from the wall surface without damaging the surface. They are the best option for businesses that update their branding, messaging, and promotions regularly.
​
These temporary wall stickers can be easily removed by simply peeling them away from the wall. Applying heat from a heat gun or hairdryer to the surface can make it easier to peel off firmly adhered sections. However, they can be difficult to remove if they remain on the wall for too long. That's why we suggest replacing or removing them within two to three years of installation.
​
Custom Wall Murals
Custom murals are large-format wall graphics printed across multiple panels and installed to create a single, seamless image. They are used for lobby branding, restaurant theme walls, hotel feature walls, corporate culture displays, and any space where a single bold image needs to cover a large portion of a wall. They require professional installation using laser levels and panel mapping to ensure every seam is invisible and the final image reads as one cohesive display.
​
Wall murals are available in permanent and removable vinyl, as well as polyester fabric wall coverings for a softer, textile finish. Fabric options are particularly popular in hospitality and corporate environments where a premium look and feel is required.
​
Large Wall Decals
Large wall decals are oversized single-piece or multi-panel graphics that make a strong visual statement in any space. They are commonly used for brand logos in corporate lobbies, motivational displays in offices, promotional graphics in retail spaces, and decorative art in restaurants and hospitality environments.
​
Large custom wall decals can be produced in any shape and finished with matte or gloss lamination, depending on the lighting conditions of the space.
​
Adhesive Vinyl Graphics for Offices
Adhesive vinyl wall graphics are widely used throughout office environments for branding, wayfinding, and informational signage. Common applications include reception-area logos, core-values displays, directional wayfinding graphics, meeting-room identifiers, safety and compliance signage, and motivational lettering along corridors and breakout spaces.
​
The wall graphics for the office can be installed quickly with minimal disruption to your business operations.
​
Outdoor Wall Graphics
Outdoor wall graphics are created using cast vinyl and high-tack adhesives rated for sustained outdoor exposure and UV resistance. They are produced with UV-stabilized pigments that resist fading from UV rays, and finished with a protective overlaminate suited to outdoor conditions.
​
Outdoor vinyl stickers are weather-resistant and durable. They are the perfect way to build brand exteriors, retail frontages, and outdoor event spaces.

Wall Surface Compatibility and Adhesion
Not all walls are created equal. The wall surface type, paint finish, and environmental conditions all affect how a graphic adheres, performs, and removes. This is why it's important to consider professional wall graphics installation rather than a DIY attempt.
Smooth Drywall
Smooth drywall is the most common wall surface for interior wall graphics. It accepts both permanent and removable adhesive vinyl well, provided the surface has been properly prepared. We clean all surfaces with an isopropyl alcohol protocol before installation to remove dust, grease, and any contaminants that could compromise adhesion.
​
Low-VOC and Green Paint Surfaces
Low-VOC paints are common in modern commercial buildings and LEED-certified spaces. However, they are one of the most challenging for wall graphics installation. The chemical composition of these paints results in lower surface energy, which causes standard adhesive vinyl to edge-curl or lift over time. We address this by using specialized high-tack adhesives and adhesion promotion primers where required. We also test surface energy before material selection.
​
Textured Surfaces: Brick, Cinderblock, and Stucco
Textured walls need a different approach. Standard vinyl will not conform to brick, cinderblock, or stucco. Instead, it sits on top of the surface rather than bonding to it.
We use specialized rough surface vinyl with high-tack adhesive. Combined with industrial heat tools, the vinyl is worked directly into the wall's texture. This way, the result looks painted on rather than applied.
​
​
Multi-Panel Alignment and Seam Finishing
For multiple-paneled walls, we suggest large wall murals and floor-to-ceiling wraps. We map the layout using laser levels before anything goes up. For seams, we overlap adjacent panels and cut through both simultaneously. This double-cut technique produces joins that are virtually invisible in the finished graphic.
​

Wall Graphics for Different Business Environments
We produce and install wall graphics for a wide range of commercial and professional settings. Each environment has its own requirements, and we match materials, finishes, and installation methods accordingly.
​
Corporate Offices
Office wall graphics are ideal for branding, culture, and navigation. Reception murals set the tone for visitors from the moment they arrive. Core values display and motivational lettering, reinforce the company culture for employees daily. Wayfinding graphics handle the functional side by directing people through the space cleanly and consistently.
​
Retail Spaces
In retail, wall graphics are a direct advertising tool. Seasonal promotions, product imagery, and brand murals create an environment that draws customers in and keeps them engaged. Removable wall decals give retailers the flexibility to update their messaging without repainting or a major investment. Graphics can also display deals, events, and key business information at high-visibility locations throughout the store.
​
Restaurants and Hospitality
Restaurants, hotels, and hospitality venues use wall graphics to create atmosphere and reinforce their concept. Feature wall murals, themed imagery, and decorative vinyl decals decorate dining and lobby spaces in ways that enhance the customer experience and give the environment a distinctive identity. Floor-to-ceiling wraps work particularly well in open-plan restaurants, where a single strong visual can anchor the entire room's design.
​
Event Venues
Event venues need graphics that go up fast and come down clean. Removable vinyl is the right material for this environment. It installs quickly between events and peels away without damaging the wall surface. Common applications include sponsor branding, branded backdrops, directional signage, and decorative displays. Each install is designed to be removed and replaced as often as needed.
​
Industrial and Specialty Environments
We also produce and install wall graphics for industrial facilities, warehouses, hospitals, and schools. Applications include safety and compliance signage, high-visibility directional graphics, ADA-compliant wall signage, and acoustic panel graphics. Every material is chosen based on site conditions, including moisture, chemical exposure, cleaning protocols, and traffic levels.

Our Professional Installation Process
Proper installation ensures long-term performance and clean results.
-
Surface Preparation: All walls must be clean and dry. We inspect the wall surface for paint type and surface energy. Low-VOC paints can cause adhesion challenges, so we test bonding before full installation.
-
Precision Alignment: Large panels are aligned carefully to avoid visible seams. We trim around doors, corners, and fixtures for a built-in appearance.
-
Seam Finishing: Overlap splicing and double-cut seams ensure graphics appear continuous across the space.
-
Final Inspection: We review adhesion and edge bonding to confirm the vinyl is secure.
Professional installation minimizes disruption to business operations and ensures accurate placement.

How Long Do Wall Graphics Last?
Indoors, high-quality vinyl wall decals can last up to ten years with proper care and maintenance. Used outdoors, wall graphics last 3 to 5 years, depending on sun exposure, UV rays, moisture, and temperature variations.
To get the most from your wall graphics:
-
Apply graphics to a clean and dry wall surface
-
Avoid cleaning with abrasive products or high-pressure water on outdoor graphics
-
Regular maintenance on outdoor wall graphics is recommended to clear debris and inspect edges for lifting
-
Indoor graphics in high-traffic areas benefit from a scuff-resistant laminate to prevent surface scratching
-
Replace removable wall decals within the intended timeframe. The longer they remain on the wall, the more difficult they can be to remove without residue
When it is time to remove wall decals, begin by slowly peeling from a corner at a low angle. Applying gentle heat from a heat gun or hairdryer softens the adhesive and makes the process significantly easier, especially on graphics that have been in place for an extended period. Wall decals installed and removed professionally will not damage the wall surface underneath.

FAQs
How long do wall graphics last?
Indoors, adhesive vinyl graphics are durable and can last up to ten years because they are made from high-quality vinyl material that is resistant to fading, tearing, and damage from the elements. Outdoors, wall graphics typically last three to five years, depending on UV exposure, climate, and maintenance.
Can I remove wall decals without damaging the surface?
Wall decals can be removed without damaging the wall surface when they are professionally installed and properly removed. Begin by slowly peeling from a corner at a low angle. Applying heat from a heat gun or hairdryer softens the adhesive, making it easier to remove. Note that the longer wall decals are on the wall, the more difficult they can be to remove.
What is the difference between permanent and removable wall decals?
Permanent vinyl forms a stronger bond that lasts for years. It is ideal for long-term applications like lobby murals, wayfinding graphics, and exterior wall branding. Removable vinyl uses a lower-tack adhesive that allows the graphic to be peeled off cleanly when no longer needed. We suggest removable decals for seasonal promotions, event venues, and spaces where marketing graphics are changed regularly.
Can wall graphics be applied to brick or textured walls?
Yes, but textured wall surfaces require specialized rough surface vinyl and industrial heat tools. Using heat stretching techniques, our installers conform the vinyl to the texture of the surface for a painted-on appearance. This is a technically demanding installation that requires experience. Results from standard vinyl applied to textured walls without proper technique are almost always poor.
What are the challenges of installing wall graphics on low-VOC painted walls?
Low-VOC paints have lower surface energy than conventional paints, which means standard adhesive vinyl may not bond reliably and can edge-curl over time. We use specialized high-tack adhesives and adhesion promotion primers, applied after surface energy testing. This additional preparation step is critical for any installation on low-VOC painted walls.
How much do custom wall graphics cost?
The actual cost of custom wall graphics depends on the size, material, complexity of design, and wall surface conditions. Adhesive vinyl graphics are relatively inexpensive compared to other forms of advertising. We provide detailed, written quotes that break down costs for design, materials, and installation. Call (502) 254-0001 for a free quote.
Can wall graphics be installed quickly without disrupting the business?
Wall graphics can typically be installed in a matter of hours, and our team works to minimize disruption to business operations during the installation process. For large-format murals or multi-panel installs, we can schedule work around your business hours.
What finishes are available for wall graphics?
We offer matte, lustre, satin, and scuff-resistant laminate finishes depending on your environment and lighting conditions. Matte is preferred in office and gallery environments to eliminate glare. Scuff-resistant laminate is recommended for high-traffic areas where the surface may be touched or brushed regularly.
