FATHEAD INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

FATHEAD INSTALLATION VIDEO INSTRUCTIONS

Step One: Find four hands of two patient people.

Step Two: Measure your wall before you begin to install your Fathead to ensure adequate space for your Fathead to lay flat and look stunning.

Step Three: Clean the wall thoroughly and allow it to dry completely before application of the Fathead. Use a warm damp cloth. Do NOT use any cleaning chemicals or soap as this can affect the integrity to the adhesive.

Step Four: Apply your Fathead

Unroll your Fathead and allow some time for it to flatten out prior to applying it to the wall. If your Fathead came in two parts, install the bottom half first.

With someone on either side of the Fathead, start at the top edge and slowly and evenly peel down toward the bottom edge until the Fathead is completely removed from the backing paper. Working together, place one end or corner of the Fathead on the wall and slowly smooth the rest of the Fathead into place using minimal pressure. For helmets, be sure to start at the top of the helmet and work your way down. If needed, gently pull the Fathead from the wall and reposition it until you get it right.

Next, working from the center to the outside of the Fathead, smooth out any bubbles and wrinkles using the provided roller or squeegee. For a two piece Fathead, carefully line up the top half with the bottom, smooth it out and then remove any bubbles with the roller or squeegee. If any residue is left by the squeegee, gently buff the Fathead with a clean dry cloth to remove it.

IDEAL SURFACES FOR YOUR FATHEAD

RELOCATING YOUR FATHEAD

Identify where you want your Fathead to go, wipe the wall clean (no soap), wait until the wall is completely dry. With a friend, carefully remove the Fathead from one wall to the new location and follow the rest of the instructions above. If moving your Fathead to a new location that is not within walking distance put your Fathead back on the original liner it came with and transport it to your new location.

If for some reason you did not save the liner and you wish to relocate your Fathead, purchase a roll of wax paper, carefully peel the Fathead off the wall and place it on a clean flat surface, STICKY SIDE UP. Cover the entire area of the Fathead with wax paper and roll it around a tube large enough to protect the edges of the Fathead and allow it to remain unwrinkled. DO NOT FOLD your Fathead as this will cause creases to appear.

NOTE

If the Fathead has some slicing of the backing paper, don’t sweat it, it’s NOT a product defect. Also, the edges of the sheet your Fathead comes on may become wrinkled during shipping – this will not affect the quality of the Fathead. Fatheads are designed for indoor use only. Your Fathead should not be installed on a newly painted wall surface – most painted surfaces need a minimum of 30 days to completely cure.

Save the liner your Fathead came on, the roller/squeegee, and the tube that your Fathead came in. These are essential for relocating your Fathead or, if for any reason you need to return your Fathead, it MUST be returned with the liner and tube it came in.
