About the construction method

Black light printing

During installation, the pattern cannot be seen under normal lighting, so a black light must be used. Since there are no repeats like in normal wallpaper, even a slight distortion will cause the pattern to not match. (Overlapping may cause wrinkles and peeling.)

A short open time is recommended. (Overlapping may cause wrinkles and peeling.) A shorter open time is recommended, and use more water glue and a thicker setting. (Overlapping may cause wrinkles and peeling. The surface of the wallpaper is numbered in visible ink, so start at the edge and work your way down. The numbers are basically numbered from right to first. Place a 20W or 40W black light fluorescent lamp in the room as a working light and start the installation.

Order of construction

Make a vertical line with the first one. If assembling from the right, start at (1) and work down. If assembling from the left, start with the largest number and work your way down; the second and subsequent sheets should be double-cut.

Please note that even the slightest distortion will cause the pattern to not match. Even if a little sunlight enters the room, the installation can be done by bringing a black light closer. The darker the surroundings, the smoother the installation will be.

The cutouts are provided so that the image can be viewed in normal light. The space between the cut lines is the margin of the joint. You can cut anywhere between the cut lines.

Precautions for lighting installation

Black light printing
When 40W is irradiated at a distance of about 80-150cm from the wall
Suitable height Appropriate width
1.8~2.5m 1.8~2.4m
Appropriate distance
Do not place a black light within 80cm of the wallpaper! If you place it too close, the UV energy emitted by the light will be stronger and may cause the color to fade faster.As shown in the figure below, if two rows are placed in the same area, the color near the fluorescent light will become brighter, but the overall color will not change much and will fade faster.
Appropriate UV intensity
The lighting (black light) should use the proper UV intensity! The stronger the UV intensity, the better the color (brightness) near the lighting, so we tend to install a lot of lighting, but too much UV intensity can cause the color to fade faster.
Effective height of lighting
It is recommended to install only on the ceiling (or floor) at a height of 1.8m to 2.5m. If the installation position is too close to the wall, the brightness will be different between the upper and lower part of the wall, so be sure to install it at least 80cm away from the wall. If the installation position is more than 80cm away from the wall and the surrounding area is darkened, the brightness will be evenly distributed.

About Fixtures

If you install a lot of fixtures in a small space, the TRICK WALL® will not emit clean light due to glare.

A single row is enough to get good color.

If you install a lot of fixtures in a small space, TRICK WALL®(wallpaper) will not emit light properly due to glare.

When installing on the ceiling, if the light is mounted directly on the ceiling, the surrounding 80cm will fade faster.
