FAQs
Can this paper be cleaned if it gets dirty?
As this is a paper product, stains are generally permanent. It is recommended to cut off the soiled portion and roll down fresh paper.
Do I need a special stand for this background?
You need a background support system with a crossbar that is at least 2.72 meters wide.
Is the Larkspur color consistent across different rolls?
Yes, Colorama maintains strict quality control for color rendition across their production batches.
How should I store the roll?
Always store the roll vertically, ideally using a dedicated wall-mounted holder or a Colorgrip system.
Is this background fire-resistant?
While durable, this is a paper product and should be kept away from open flames and excessive heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Paper sagging in the middle
Ensure your background support stand is not set too wide and that the crossbar is sufficiently rigid.
Visible wrinkles or creases
Check the tension on the roll; pull the paper tight and weigh down the end on the floor with a clean, flat object.
Roll unrolling on its own
Use metal spring clamps on the sides of the paper against the crossbar to hold your desired height.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the Colorama LL CO128, you must have a compatible crossbar background support system capable of handling the width and weight of the roll. To prevent the paper from unrolling accidentally, use a clamp or gaffer tape on the side of the roll. For optimal storage, the roll should always be kept in a vertical position to prevent the cardboard core from bending. It is highly recommended to use the Colorama Colorgrip (LL COPAPERGRIP) to store the roll vertically and keep it protected from dust and damage when not in use. If a section of the paper becomes dirty or torn during a shoot, simply use a sharp knife or heavy-duty scissors to cut off the damaged area and pull down a fresh section.
