I can't find my "How to Apply"?
Don't worry. If you need any more help just contact us.

What is a Funky Monkey Design?
Our products are made from lead-free non toxic vinyl. Composed of very thin, flexible matte finish vinyl allows the material to mold to the wall better than clings or other wall decal materials which will create a professional hand painted look onto the wall. Our wall décor decals are meant primarily for walls and surfaces that will not allow little ones to reach. Although they are not toxic, please make sure your little children can’t reach as they may be a choking hazard if put into their mouths.

Are they reusable or re-positionable?
No, our vinyl wall designs are meant for a one time application only. However, they look great on boards, mirrors, and surfaces that can be moved around if you are unsure about putting it on the wall. The more intricate the design the less you are able to move it around or the vinyl will rip or become ruined.

What types of surfaces can I put Funky Monkey Designs on?
Our vinyl designs can be applied to smooth, dust free, clean surfaces. Our vinyl is very thin and is meant to mold and follow the grooves of the wall. (Although, every wall is different) However, sandy type paint surfaces may not give the vinyl any place to grab on to. Our vinyl can be used on many surfaces; walls, windows, mirrors, tile, ceramic, smooth wallpaper, wood and metal, and can be used both indoors and outdoors. If you are unsure
of your surface we would be happy to send you a sample to try out first. Most paints and textured surfaces are compatible with our vinyl. However with fabric, sandy or heavily textured walls and some paints it may not stick. Our vinyl decals can be placed outside as well and can withstand temperatures ranging from -20°F and +150°F. It will not stick to rough or uneven surfaces like cinder block, brick or stucco. We suggest asking for a sample if you are not sure by emailing us with your address and sample in the subject line.

How long will my Alphabet Garden Design stick for?
As long as you want it to! The sun will fade your paint over time so when you remove your design there may be a faint ghost line from the lettering.

I just painted my wall. Can I put my wall decal right up?
No, make sure you wait at least 2 weeks to one month after painting your wall to hang your wall design. To test, try rubbing a piece of masking tape onto the newly painted wall, and if it doesn't remove any paint you are ready to go! (Make sure you try in an inconspicuous area!)

How important is it to clean the surface before I start?
VERY! If there is dirt, oil or any residue on the surface the vinyl will not adhere correctly and it will make it harder for it to stay on the wall. After the design is up, to clean your wall use a soft damp cloth but make sure not to use cleaners containing alcohol or abrasives. Wait 24 hours after cleaning the walls before applying the design.

There is a small part of my wall lettering that won’t stick. What should I do?
Sometimes for reasons unexplained, a small part of your design may be stubborn and my not want to stick. Use a glue stick or wallpaper paste to reattach it. First test in an inconspicuous place before applying it to your wall. Please contact us if you need a sample of vinyl.

Do Funky Monkey Designs work in the bathroom?
Yes! On the wall that is...if you install it right on the bathtub or shower it will not stay for long, unless you request to use outdoor use vinyl. For the bathroom wall, our vinyl is intended to withstand high heat temperatures.

I only have a certain area I can fit my design into. How can I make sure it will fit?
No problem! Some of our products do not list the width as it is dependent on your name used for the design. If you are worried about the length of the design please contact us to find the width size with your custom name choice.

How can I determine how long my lettering will be?
If you order a pre-designed lettering from our site it will have sizing for the width and height of the whole quote unless the width is determined by the name. When you order a custom quote we can contact you with the width after you have chosen the height of your lettering.

How do I get it on straight?
To achieve a straight alignment, make sure you align the arrows provided of the quote or decal and not the white paper around it. Secure to the wall with masking tape and make sure it is where you would like it to go before applying. Measure from all sides and always measure twice!

How long can I store my Funky Monkey Design?
If you store your Funky Monkey Design too long before applying it loses its ability to stick and may not adhere well. We suggest applying your wall decal shortly after purchasing for best results. If you must store it for a short time (make sure no longer than a year) make sure it is in a dry, clean area at temperature below 100 degrees and leave it in the box it came in.

How long will it take to get my order?
Most orders are shipped within 5 business days from time of order received, or once proof approval has been made. We are happy to expedite your order if needed please contact us for prices.
