Will
Casart coverings damage my walls?
Casart coverings
use a water-based, pressure sensitive, self-adhesive (PSA), similar to what you find on Post It® notes, but more aggressive to ensure strength, durability, and reuse. The PSA will not leave
a residue upon removal. However, proper wall preparation is essential. We recommend eggshell, satin
or higher sheen (gloss or semigloss) to ensure loose or degraded paint or
substrate is not lifted off by the PSA. If the wall has been freshly painted, allow at least one
week for it to "cure" prior to installation.

Is
there a maximum or minimum size affecting cost?
Some
sizes are stock and if different, may require custom
ordering.There is no minimum order size but when placing a small square footage order,
we reserve the option to hold orders until total of square feet can be achieved due to the manual
labor to print and process each order. Prices are variable and
are subject to change due to fluctuation in production cost.

Casart
is printed on what type of material?
Our material is printed on 20 oz and 18ml (with backing sheet), Type II, Class
A, Poly-cotton, smooth, canvas-like, vinyl material with a repositionable, self-adhesive
backing that allows for quick and easy installation,
removal, storage, and reuse.

What
surfaces are suitable for installation?
Suitable
surfaces are pre-painted, interior walls, cabinets
or doors with an eggshell or higher finish (preferably
in latex). Note this product has been tested on flat
finished surfaces, as well as ceilings, with no known
damage. The product is best suited for long term use
in low humidity conditions and should not be applied
over any visible mold or mildew.
The
adhesion is guaranteed up to one year, provided proper
methods are taken to prep the wall surface before
installation. Product may also be adhered to glass and other smooth surfaces.
If newly painted, wait a week before installing. The
walls should be clean, dry and free of dust. Do not
use cleansers as they may affect adhesion.

Is
my Casart scratch resistant?
No,
but the eco-solvent inks are durable and made to last. However
if extra protection is desired, especially for "high
trafficked" areas, a clear protective laminate
in matte or gloss sheen can be purchased from the
Products located on our Wall
finishes page in the drop down choices for size
and price.

Can
it be cleaned?
It
may be cleaned with mild damp cloth using soap and
water. For extra protection, a liquid laminate topcoat
(see
Wall Finishes page) may be applied with a paint
roller once installed. The laminate is clear and water-based,
does not yellow or crack, and has a non-drip consistency.

How
long will my Casart adhere to the surface?
Although
your Casart is likely to adhere to a surface
as long as you want, the adhesion is guaranteed for
one year, providing proper measures are taken to prep
the surface before installation. FYI: we've had Casart installed in our own homes for over 2 years and these have been removed and reused multiple times with no problem.

Will
the surface be damaged when I remove my Casart?
No,
providing the surface was properly prepared before
installation. Try this test, if your walls can withstand the packaging or duct tape test then they are OK but the PSA will uplift any areas where paint is unstable -- peeling or bubbling and not properly prepped + the finish should be eggshell for short term or higher, semigloss, for long term use.

How
do I store my Casart for reuse?
Save
the peel-away backing in order to store your Casart.
Once removed and repositioned on corresponding backing
sheet, you can roll the Casart and store in
the original packing tube.

Will
a residue be left on the surface after removal?

will be no residue left behind on the surface.

Is
this a "do-it-yourself project?
Yes,
but with 54" wide or larger Casart, it
will be helpful to have another person to assist in
positioning, although you can reposition until satisfactory
position is achieved.

How
do I measure to determine the amount I need to order?
You
will need to find the square footage of your wall
space. Measure the height of your wall. Measure the
length of the wall to be covered. Multiply these two
numbers to get the square feet (sf) of your wall.
Each Casart has the square foot measurement
listed to determine which size bests fits your needs.
Please refer to our specs
pdf for additional measuring details.

How
do I measure if my Casart has a pattern?
If the finish you are choosing contains a pattern,
then add the repeat measurement height to the total
maximum height and the repeat pattern width to the
total maximum width figure, for extra flexibility
in the positioning while installing. Calculate the
square footage of each wall based on this total maximum
height multiplied by the maximum width measurements
in feet. Continue to figure out each wall space square
footage by this method and add each one together.
This is the total square footage needed. Please refer
to our specs
pdf on our About page for additional pattern repeat
information. We have included an extra 6 inches of
Casart per roll to accommodate walls that are
not square.

finishes page in the drop down choices for size
and price.
