Mandarin Oriental Hotel | Wall Panel Renovation Project
Hotel maintenance does not always require replacing the whole surface. This Mandarin Oriental hotel project focused on four existing wall panels, using architectural film to renew their appearance after surface preparation.
The project used solid white and tan wood-pattern 3M DI-NOC architectural finishes. Applied to a suitable, prepared substrate, interior film changes the visible finish while retaining the underlying panels.
Architectural film is also called interior wrap, architectural wrap, or architectural vinyl wrap. For hotel wall panels, the decision starts with the condition of the substrate: sound panels with a worn finish may be candidates for resurfacing; damaged or damp material needs assessment and repair first. See our hotel renovation services for larger projects involving doors, elevators, walls, and casework.
Before: worn and water-damaged wall panels
Project scope: renew four wall panels with architectural film.
Existing condition: the wall panels showed visible wear and water damage, affecting their appearance in a guest-facing space.
Surface preparation: our team prepared the existing woodwork before applying the finish. For a new project, active leaks, dampness, and unsound material must be addressed before installation; film is a decorative finish and does not repair the cause of water damage.
Reported installation time: one hour for this four-panel project. Preparation requirements and installation time vary with the condition and size of each job.
Number of panels resurfaced: four.
Project warranty: the original project included a three-year warranty from installation, subject to its terms. Ask our team to confirm the applicable warranty for your material and project.
Material: 3M DI-NOC in solid white and a tan wood pattern with a whorl grain.
After: a refreshed finish on the existing panels
The panels received a new decorative finish while retaining their existing structure. This is the purpose of architectural resurfacing: update a suitable surface without rebuilding it solely to change its appearance.
For your property, send photos of the panels, edges, joints, and any damaged areas, along with approximate dimensions and access restrictions. We can assess suitability, help select samples, and plan the work around hotel operations. Explore wall resurfacing or view more completed architectural wrap projects.
