Abstract:

A repositionable, self-adhesive wallpaper can be applied to a surface, positioned, repositioned, and can be removed without damaging the underlying surface, allowing the user to change wallpaper designs periodically. Embodiments comprise a vinyl sheet having front and rear surfaces, the front surface having a surface coating that is capable of having an image printed thereon; a removable backing layer comprising a clay coated kraft paper and a release agent; and a pressure sensitive adhesive disposed between the sheet rear surface and the backing layer, the adhesive being an acrylic emulsion adhesive applied to the rear surface, such that after the backing layer has been separated to expose the adhesive the surface covering can be applied to a surface, and the applied surface covering can be removed from the surface and the surface covering can be repositioned and/or reused.
