Product Insights
The Band Apart Wall Decal from Simons Maison X Meraki is a 24x96-inch, 16 sq ft authored Quebec studio design, priced at 120 CAD and in stock: a single band you compose around the space rather than repeating wallpaper, intended as the grown-up anchor of a whimsical scheme and paired with other prints in the exclusive Simons Maison X Meraki capsule. Meraki is the retail face of the four-designer Pigment Design studio, and the name comes from the Greek word for doing your work with love and creativity. Its core promise is repositionable installation and removal for days to weeks after it is set, but it works only on clean, dry, smooth walls and not on textured walls, existing wallpaper, fresh paint under 30 days, or slick anti-graffiti and easy-clean finishes that stop the adhesive from bonding. Installation requires unrolling and laying the panel flat at room temperature for at least 90 minutes, inspecting it flat for orientation, crop and colour before the backing comes off, anchoring the top edge, releasing the liner 6-8 inches at a time, and firmly squeegeeing edges and seams; adjoining panels should overlap by about 0.5-1 inch rather than be butted, hiding slight vinyl shrinkage. One panel covers about 16 sq ft, roughly one per 2 ft of wall, so a 10 ft wall is about five panels near $600, and because handmade production causes batch-to-batch colour variation, all panels must be purchased at once. After setting, do not peel panels back to fix issues: pinprick trapped bubbles, warm wrinkles gently, use a heat gun for stubborn wrinkles, and reseat lifted edges or seams with an extra squeegee pass and heat-gun post-heat; fix the panel first, then cut around outlets, switches and baseboards with the power off.
Verified claims
- Repositioning

- Post-set correction
- After the adhesive sets, correct bubbles and wrinkles in place rather than peeling the panel back.
- Surface requirements
- Not for textured walls, existing wallpaper, fresh paint under 30 days, or slick anti-graffiti finishes.
- Coverage
- One panel covers about 16 sq ft — roughly one per 2 ft of wall, so a 10 ft wall is about five panels (near $600).
- Color variation
- Handmade production causes batch-to-batch color variation, requiring all panels be purchased at once.
- Installation

- Acclimation
- Unroll and lay the panel flat at room temperature for at least 90 minutes before installing.
- Seam method
- Overlap adjoining panels by half an inch to an inch instead of butting them.
- Repositionability
- Repositionable during installation, and removable for days to weeks after it is set.
- Surface requirement
- Clean, dry, smooth wall; fresh paint needs 30 days and anti-graffiti or easy-clean finishes won't bond.
- Cutting around fixtures
- Fix the panel first, then cut around outlets and trim with the power off
- Seams
- Overlap adjoining panels by about 0.5 in rather than butting the seams
- Edge adhesion
- Give edges and seams an extra-firm squeegee pass to stop lifting

- Panel layout
- One 24 x 96-inch panel covers 16 sq ft, about one panel per 2 ft of wall; compose the run yourself
- Bubble release
- A pinprick or small blade incision releases trapped air without lifting the panel.
- Wrinkle removal
- Stubborn wrinkles are softened and stretched flat with a heat gun, not by peeling the strip off.
- Edge lift
- Lifted edges and seams are reseated with an extra squeegee pass and a heat-gun post-heat.
- Panel seam
- Overlap adjacent panels by about ½–1 inch so slight vinyl shrinkage hides behind the joint.

Adding a colourful accent band to an indoor wall
Use this peel-and-stick vinyl decal to run a full-length, rust-coloured band up an indoor wall for a pop of colour that reflects your personality. It comes with an installation guide and smoother, and can handle moderate humidity without splashing, making it an option for spaces like a living room or powder room. Since it stays removable for a few weeks after installation, it works as a temporary accent, though all panels should be ordered together so the shades match.[2,3]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Band Apart Wall Decal: Choose this if you want a peel-and-stick vertical band to add a pop of color indoors: it is a phthalate-free PVC vinyl that is 100% opaque and, at 6 thousandths of an inch, described by the brand as one of the thickest available, with a canvas-like texture, commercial-grade quality, and included installation guide and smoother. It comes in one 24 inch by 96 inch (61 x 243.75 cm) size and multiple colors such as Taupe, Burgundy, and Ochre Yellow, and stays removable for a few weeks after installation. Note that it is handmade, so shades can vary between batches and all needed panels should be bought in a single order, and it tolerates only moderate humidity without splashing for indoor use.[1,2] | Good Old Days Self-Adhesive Wallpaper Strip: Choose this if you want a peel-and-stick vinyl wallpaper with a retro geometric charm, offered in Taupe and Green 25-inch by 96-inch strips, with a completely opaque, phthalate-free PVC that is easy to trim, overlap (each panel has a 0.5 inch margin), and reposition during installation. It suits indoor walls with moderate humidity but no splashing, and stays removable for a few weeks after application, with an installation guide and smoother included. Because it is handmade, shades can vary between batches, so buy all the panels you need in a single order to keep colors matching.[4] | Offshore Self-Adhesive Wallpaper Strip: Choose this if you want a graphic, large vertical-stripe accent wall in a peel-and-stick format: it's a commercial-grade, phthalate-free PVC vinyl (described by the retailer as one of the thickest available at 6/1000 of an inch) that's completely opaque, repositionable, and removable for a few weeks after installation. Each package contains one 25-inch by 96-inch strip with a 0.5-inch overlap margin, and an installation guide and smoother are included; it handles moderate humidity without splashing but is for indoor use only. Note that because it's handmade in Quebec, shades can vary between batches, so buy all the panels you need in a single order—divide your wall's width in inches by 25 and round up to determine how many you need.[5] |
