Looking for printable vinyl that will stick to uncoved dry wall.

Got an VG540 and have a job to cover uncoated/finished drywall.
This is a temp job and will be removed after about 1 month.
What is the best bang for the buck vinyl to use?

thanks!

I'm using a lot of Orafol 3640 for this kind of thing. I'm getting it for $109 a roll (54"x150'") It sticks to most anything and I have spent a lot of time with drywall. Scotch tape will stick to drywall. Just know that nothing with adhesive will come off of drywall ever without taking the paper with it. That's why it should be painted first.

I tried some 3164 and it peeled up pretty fast.
I wonder if 3640 has a different adhesive behind it

3641 will stick well to drywall paper.

3641 will stick well to drywall paper.

Ignore that because 3641 would definitely rip the paper off the drywall for a temporary job.
Have you ever used PhotoTex?

You can use it as a mouse trap. That's how sticky it is!
You will not be able to peel it back from drywall. It will rip off a layer of paper from it.

The drywall should at least be sealed so you don't damage it at removal.

Oracal 631 is made for wall applications and doesnt have a strong adhesive so it can be removed without taking anything with it.Heating it up will also make it easier to remove as well..and its very reasonable as well..ORACAL 631 Removable Adhesive Indoor/ Outdoor Vinyl 15" x 10 Yard Roll (Punched)

A trick of the trade show world is to have graphics applied to panels. I have no idea if that's applicable to this project, but the savings in labor and the benefit of the graphics being reusable can often offset the cost of the substrate.
