FAQs
What is the pattern repeat for this wallpaper?
The pattern repeat is a 64 cm straight match. This means you need to align the pattern every 64 cm along the length of the wallpaper roll.
How do I clean this wallpaper?
This wallpaper is scrubbable. You can gently wipe it with a damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution for minor marks. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive rubbing.
Can I hang this wallpaper myself?
Yes, this non-woven wallpaper is designed for the paste-the-wall technique, which is generally considered easier for DIYers than traditional pasting methods.
What kind of surface is best for this wallpaper?
It is best applied to clean, dry, smooth, firm, and absorbent surfaces. Proper wall preparation is crucial for a good finish.
How do I remove this wallpaper when redecorating?
This wallpaper is dry removable, meaning it should peel off the wall in dry strips without leaving excessive residue.
What does FSC Mix certified mean?
It means the non-woven support material is sourced from FSC-certified forests and includes recycled materials, indicating responsible forest management and material sourcing.
Is this wallpaper suitable for a bathroom or kitchen?
While it is scrubbable, it is not specifically rated as a vinyl or kitchen/bathroom wallpaper. For areas with high moisture or frequent condensation, specialized wallpapers are recommended.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or imperfections after hanging
Gently push any trapped air towards the nearest edge using a wallpaper brush or seam roller while the adhesive is still wet. If the adhesive has dried, it may be difficult to correct.
Difficulty aligning the pattern
Ensure strips are hung at the same height and carefully align the 64 cm repeat. Take your time during the hanging process and adjust slightly before the adhesive sets.
Wallpaper not sticking properly
Check that the wall surface is clean, dry, and absorbent. Ensure you have used the correct type and amount of adhesive for non-woven wallpaper and applied it evenly to the wall.
Glistening effect looks too strong or too weak
This is an inherent design feature. Ensure adequate lighting in the room to appreciate the intended effect. View samples in your intended space if possible.
