FAQs

Can I use this paper on outdoor items?

While the finish is durable with varnish, it is primarily intended for indoor use as extreme weather may eventually degrade the adhesive.

Do I need a specific type of glue?

Decopatch glue or a standard water-based decoupage medium is recommended for the best results.

How many sheets are in the pack?

Each pack contains three sheets, each measuring 30 x 40 cm.

Does the paper come with adhesive backing?

No, this is non-adhesive paper and requires a separate decoupage glue for application.

Is the paper transparent?

It is semi-transparent, so the base color of the item you are decorating may show through slightly if the surface is very dark.

How do I make the colors pop more?

Applying a layer of varnish after the glue dries is the best way to enhance the depth of the green and gold colors.

Troubleshooting

Paper tearing during application

Use a softer brush and ensure the paper is fully saturated with glue before smoothing out air bubbles.

Air bubbles trapped under paper

Gently press from the center of the paper fragment outward toward the edges using a soft brush or your finger before the glue dries.

Edges of paper lifting

Apply a little extra glue under the edge and press down firmly until the bond sets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting your project, ensure your base surface is clean, dry, and free of dust. If applying to a porous surface like raw wood, a light sanding may improve adhesion. To maintain the life of your finished project, always apply a water-based varnish once the decoupage glue is completely dry. This will make the surface resistant to light moisture and dust. For long-term care, simply wipe your finished item with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh cleaning agents or abrasive scrubbers that could dull or damage the foil surface.
