The wallpaper would not leave marks but removing the wallpaper could leave marks depending on what you are covering and what you use to remove it. Removing wallpaper is a difficult and time consuming task! If you decide to do it anyway, painting the wallpaper would not make it more difficult to remove or damage the surface underneath, especially if you use the newer latex paint! Good luck!

depends. i attached the mural with nails, so it would just be a matter of removing each nail and getting the paper down. however, if you use the glue that many suggested NOT to use because it messes the paper up, i dont know how easy it would be to remove.like any other wallpaper, i suppose.

Yes the decal is removable and will not damage walls/paint as long as the wall is in good condition. The decals are not reusable and can't be reapplied after removal. Thank you!

I have it installed in my bathroom, but there is wainscoting at the bottom so it is only on the top half of the wall. I really like it! It was easy to install and this was my very first wallpaper installation too. As far as cleaning, you can wipe it off but I do not think you can scrub it. The raised pattern can be damaged (scratched or indented), so it has a little less ability to be scrubbed than just a painted wall.

I am dubious, mostly because the surface is no more metallic than your fridge (maybe less so). I think the wallpaper would be too much of a barrier. Honestly, I'd hold a piece of the paper up to your fridge and see if a magnet will stick through it...if not, I think this won't work. On the other hand,I think you could definitely paint over this and maybe do a faux finish... that would maintain the magnetic properties, I think. Good luck!

Hi Summer, depends on the wallpaper you got. Can remove from polyester and nylon, cloth, but seems it will damage regular wallpaper though... Hope this helps. Other than that, looks great once applied after some work!

I don't think it will leave any trace. I had to remove part of one of mine (because I put it in the wrong spot) and it didn't leave any sticky residue. It is not like tape. I think you'd be fine putting it up on a wall for removal later. BTW I LOVE mine. I actually have two up, same design, just one right and one left facing. They are beautiful! Very easy to put up if you have a helper and follow the directions. I highly recommend watching some YouTude videos before you put it up. They are very helpful. Also, a great company to work with. My piece I messed up, they replaced right away and for no charge. Love it! A great all around experience. Let me know if you have any questions.

I just spray the paper with water as I am pulling off, what is left I soak with water and use a soft sponge to rub off. this way there are no marks left on the wall. Pretty easy! Hope this was helpful.

If should not if removed properly. Watch the video. Its reminds you of the feel of pulling a rubber band, when you are doing it right. It's amazing how clean your walls are. Wood should not be that different. Honestly until I read the directions properly, I was peeling the paint off my walls when removing. Now since I live in a rental I use them for everything I can. Just read directly on how to disengage and follow the weight capacity for hanging. You will love using them. Hope you find this helpful.

I haven't tried removing it, but I doubt it. It had to be put on using a sticky transfer sheet, which is pulled off leaving only the black words on the wall. It isn't like the one piece stickers I've used before that can be reused.

Yes, I took a piece off and moved it, leaves nothing on wall. Was not hard to remove, just have to get edge.

Not sure have not attempted to remove but I'm sure with warm water applied to wall paper it will remove with no damage to walls

Yes, they can. My wall is the same color as pictured and I move the decals around all of the time and no marks are left and the stick in the next spot just fine.

Hi Jamie, The paper is fairly heavy but depending on color of the old wallpaper, it may show through. Also, the texture of the wallpaper liner is similar to a dryer sheet, so you may be happier with the end result if you painted it once it was thoroughly dry. Hope this helps.

No, it's actually wallpaper with glue on the back. But it is easy to remove if you want to - - wipe it with a very wet sponge and it makes the glue soft again, then you can just peel back off. Note: it will come off in pieces, so you can't use it again.

Hello, Gwynny's Mommy, what a great idea! I have not had any concerns/problems removing any of the RoomMates decals. The paint remained on the wall, it did not peel off and the colour of the paint was not affected. The only thing I have noticed, sometimes a sticky substance is left on the wall after removing the decal; however, with dish soap, water and a little "elbow grease", the sticky substance comes off. This has only occurred when the decal was on the wall for an extended period of time (4 years). If you are just putting it up for a birthday party, you should be okay. :) I hope this helps. Have a great birthday celebration! Take care, Sandra

Apparently L. M. Brown was able to do this, but in general I agree with the others who responded that it would be difficult to get the paper wet enough to activate the paste without damaging the new paint and printing. You also have to do a certain amount of hand-adjustments after the paper's on the wall, which could also damage the painted surface. I mean, it's possible, of course, but wouldn't it be easier to paint it and block print it afterward? By the way, when you get it on the wall wet it will probably look as if it's not going to flatten out, but a day later it had.
