1. What is Type I and II wallcovering?
7. Environmental
Type I and II refers to a classification for wallcoverings that
combines several important features including tear strength,
durability and code certifications.
DreamScape vinyl is manufactured with both a cadmium and lead
free formulation and is recyclable through Roysons Wallcovering
Reclamation Program.
Weight for Type I is 15oz and Type II is 20oz and is measured
(54”x 1yd = 20oz). Weight adds to durability and is often selected
for applications where extensive wear may be a factor. For
example, a hotel may want 20oz for hallways or other high traffic
areas and choose the more economical 15oz for room interiors.
Also, 20oz is better at hiding imperfections on wall surfaces.
8. Bright white point.
Tear strength is measured on a special machine that applies
directional and cross-directional forces to determine resistance to
tearing. DreamScape exceeds these requirements insuring
dimensional stability in inkjet printers and handling during
installation.
Durability refers to resistance against abrasion, extreme cold
and heat. DreamScape withstands temperature extremes from –
20F to 158 F.
2. Why does it have a fabric backing?
High quality vinyl wallcovering is made with one of two types of
fabric
backing;
poly-cotton
Osnaburg
(textured)
and
Polyester/pulp non-woven. These fabric backings provide weight;
improve dimensional stability and aid installation and good
adherence to wall surfaces. Backings are selected based on the
embossed surface of the vinyl, Osnaburg for heavier textured
surfaces and non-woven for smooth and light textures.
3. Why are Flame and Smoke ratings important?
Fire testing and Federal specification certifications are important
safety testing to meet local and national building codes. These
tests are conducted by certified and licensed organizations to
measure flame spread, smoke and toxins. DreamScape vinyl
media meets or exceeds these stringent specifications. Other
vinyl print media used in residential and commercial wall murals
and wallcovering may not be code certified. Not only is this a
safety issue, it can also be a legal liability.
4. What certifications are required?
All DreamScape media conforms to Federal specifications CCC408-D and CFFA-W-101-D. These are specific to wallcovering. To
get these certifications materials must pass the tests listed under
“Fire Testing” and “Mold/Mildew” as listed in the DreamScape
specification sheet. The two main agencies, the American Society
for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) write the standards and procedures for the
tests. The actual testing is performed at an independent licensed
test facility.
A clean white surface is critical to achieving a clean color gamut
and hence good image quality. Our “TruWhite” point has been
optimized to provide users access to the largest color gamut.
DreamScape provides a bright, consistent neutral white point on
all surfaces except the specialty surface SpunSilk. DreamScape’s
bright white offers a visible advantage over competitive products.
Simply put DreamScape “TruWhite” provides the optimal starting
point for your most challenging jobs.
What does Dry Strippable mean?
When applied according to instructions, DreamScape vinyl media
can be peeled from a wall without the need for heat or stripping
solutions. The solid vinyl construction will not tear allowing the
entire vinyl panel to be peeled away. The underlying paste
residue can be removed with a mild bleach solution. DreamScape
should not be confused with typical “wallpaper” products
10. Application.
DreamScape is applied using commercially available vinyl
wallpaper pastes that are available at hardware and home
improvement stores. Best results are achieved by following
DreamScape’s “Hanging Instructions”. A primer is recommended
to promote better adhesion and easier removal in the future.
Two brands that are commonly used are Roman and Zinsser.
Roman Adhesives: www.romandecoratingproducts.com
Primers- R-35 Primer Pro 935 or Pro-988
Adhesives- Pro -838, Heavy Duty Clear Pro, Ultra Pro-880 or Pro888
Zinsser Adhesives: www.zinsser.com
Primers- Shieldz Universal Plus
Adhesives- Sure Grip-128 Heavy Duty Clear or Sure Grip Heavy
Duty Plus
11. Can DreamScape be laminated?
Yes. DreamScape vinyl can be laminated with a good quality
liquid laminate such as DreamGuard. Liquid laminates can be
machine applied or, with DreamGuard, can be applied with a low
nap paint roller after printing or installation. DreamGuard provides
excellent protection against abrasion and wear for high traffic
areas.
5. Mold and Mildew Resistance.
12. Experience you can trust.
The ASTM-G21 specifications insure your customers that their
mural or wall design will resist mold and mildew formation in
humid climates. Materials are tested for fungal growth and
resistance to Staphylococcus Aureus, Streploverticillium
Reticulum and Mixed Fungal Spore ASTM-G21. A high quality
adhesive is key to helping prevent mold and mildew. Please see
“Application” below.
DreamScape is engineered with the experience of 30+ years of
dedicated service to the traditional wallcovering market.
DreamScape’s parent company, Roysons Corporation, is a global
leader in many wallcovering projects. Our technical support staff
is fully trained on both traditional and digital wallcovering printing
and installation techniques.
6. What does “self-extinquishing” mean?
13. Trusted.
DreamScape will not burn without a fire source. Unlike wood or
paper, DreamScape will not continue to burn once the fire source
is removed.
Used and endorsed by the biggest names in the digital and
traditional wallcovering industry.

Procedures
1.
Butt seeming is recommended for installation. It may be required to field trim or double
cutting to ensure strait vertical edges. The suitability of the factory edges will not be
guaranteed. Installations around door frames, windows, and inside corners a 1/16th gap
should be maintained and corner moldings and j moldings should be used as a part of the
installation to allow for expansion and finished edge profiles. Use a slipsheet to position each
sheet properly on to substrate. Remove any adhesive residue immediately with warm non
abrasive soapy water. DO NOT allow adhesive to dry on the surface of the product. Create
a plum line insuring the Creative Impact panel is applied strait. Smooth the panel by hand or
stiff wallcovering brush and follow with a heavy duty pressure roller. Begin rolling from the
center toward the edges removing all air pockets. Confirm all edges are properly adhered to
the surface of the wall. Contact your sales representative for any questions regarding
installation procedures before installing Creative Impact materials. If you see any issue(s)
with the product stop after 3 sheets and request approval from the architect before
