Abstract: A wallpaper display package permits vertical display of wallpaper without causing a crease or other damage to the wallpaper. The display package comprises a card having a generally planar body portion of substantially uniform thickness configured to receive an elongate wallpaper sheet wound thereon. A pair of opposing tabs are positioned on and project from respective sides of the body portion lower end. Each tab has an upper portion configured to prevent the wound wallpaper from sliding over the body portion lower end. A pair of opposing slots are provided in the body portion adjacent the upper portions of each tab. The slots prevent the formation of a crease in the wallpaper when displayed vertically.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a releasable wall covering and a method of producing the same. The wall covering comprises a reinforcing backing layer with a surfacing layer formed of a polymer coating overlying a front surface of the backing layer. A layer of printing is applied to the surfacing layer with a transparent top coating overlying the printing layer. A pressure sensitive adhesive layer formed of tacky polymeric microspheres is present on the rear surface of the backing layer so as to allow the wall covering to be repositionable upon installation and releasable after an extended time.

Abstract: A wall covering having a stain resistant outer surface comprises a reinforcing backing layer, an opaque vinyl polymer surfacing layer overlying a front surface of the backing layer, a layer of printing applied to the surfacing layer in selected areas to form a desired decorative pattern to the wall covering, and a stain resistant transparent top coating overlying the layer of printing and imparting stain resistant properties to the exposed outer surface of the wall covering. The top coating is comprised of at least one transparent vinyl polymer, a flattening pigment imparting a substantially non-glossy matte finish to the coating surface, and from about 0.1 to 4 percent by weight of a perfluoroalkyl copolymer, preferably a perfluoroalkyl methacrylate copolymer.
