FAQs

What is 'Paste-the-Wall' wallpaper?

It is a wallpapering method where the paste is applied directly to the wall instead of the back of the wallpaper. This makes the application process easier and cleaner.

How do I calculate the pattern repeat?

The pattern repeat for Strawberry Thief wallpaper is 59 cm. This will affect how much wallpaper you will need.

Is this wallpaper washable?

Yes, this wallpaper is spongeable, making it easy to clean with a damp sponge.

What does 'offset match' mean?

Offset match (also known as a drop match or half-drop) means that the pattern on the second wallpaper strip needs to be dropped by a certain distance to match up with the first strip.

How do I remove the wallpaper?

This wallpaper is fully strippable. You can remove it by peeling it from the wall, usually when the wall is dry.

Can I use this wallpaper in a bathroom?

While the wallpaper is spongeable, it is not specifically designed for high-moisture environments. It may be suitable for a bathroom with good ventilation.

What kind of paste should I use?

Always use a wallpaper paste that is specifically designed for 'Paste-the-Wall' wallpapers. Follow the paste manufacturer's instructions.

How much wallpaper will I need?

Calculate the surface area of your walls and consider the pattern repeat (59 cm) to estimate the amount of wallpaper needed. It's always best to order a bit extra to account for waste.

Troubleshooting

Wallpaper not sticking to the wall.

Ensure the wall is properly prepared, with a clean and smooth surface. Check that the correct paste is used, and it's suitable for the wallpaper type. Apply sufficient paste to the wall and smooth out any air bubbles.

Visible seams or gaps between wallpaper strips.

Make sure you're using the correct offset match. Ensure the edges are butted up closely and use a seam roller if necessary. Check that the wall is straight.

Colour variations between rolls.

Always check and match the batch numbers on the wallpaper rolls. If the batch numbers differ, the colour may vary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Ensure walls are clean, dry, and smooth. Remove any old wallpaper and repair imperfections.

  3. Hanging: Align the first strip carefully, considering the offset match. Subsequent strips need to be dropped by the indicated distance for the pattern to match.

  5. Cutting: Trim excess wallpaper at the top and bottom with a sharp knife.
  6. Compatibility: This wallpaper is compatible with most standard wall surfaces. It is advisable to test the wallpaper on a small area first.
