Designers and architects often ask: “How long will it last - and how easy is it to replace?” Here's what to expect from Type II and III vinyl wallcoverings.

Lifespan

• Average lifespan: 10–15 years in most environments.

• With proper care, some installations last 20+ years.

• Higher traffic = shorter lifespan, but vinyl is still more durable than paint.
   

Ease of Removal

• Most fabric-backed vinyls are strippable.

• When installed over a proper primer, they can be peeled off in large sheets.

• Backing can be cleaned with water or mild solvent to prep for a new finish.
   

Renovation-Friendly

Because of their removability, vinyl wallcoverings are excellent for hotels, retail, or corporate interiors where frequent updates are planned.
