FAQs
What type of paste should I use?
Use a paste-the-paper wallpaper paste, as recommended by the wallpaper manufacturer. Follow the instructions on the paste packaging for proper mixing and application.
How do I calculate how many rolls I need?
Measure the height and width of your walls, and then calculate the total wall area. Each roll is 52cm wide and 10m long. Consider the design repeat, if any, and factor in extra for matching patterns and waste.
Can I apply this wallpaper in a bathroom?
While the wallpaper is suitable for many rooms, consider the level of moisture. Ensure good ventilation to prevent moisture build-up and potential damage. It is best suited for rooms with less humidity.
How do I remove the wallpaper?
The removal process depends on the type of paste used. Generally, you can soak the wallpaper with warm water and use a scraper to remove it. Some wallpapers are also peelable; refer to the product information for details.
What should I do if the pattern doesn't align perfectly?
Since this wallpaper has a free match design, the pattern should align without a specific match. Ensure edges are aligned properly. If there are minor alignment issues, try to minimize the gap or overlap slightly.
Can I paint over the wallpaper?
This wallpaper is designed as a decorative element itself and is not intended to be painted over. Painting may damage the surface and alter its aesthetic.
How do I clean the wallpaper?
Gently wipe the wallpaper surface with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the paper.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper is not adhering to the wall.
Ensure the wall is properly prepared, clean, and dry. Make sure you are using the correct type of wallpaper paste and apply it evenly. Check for air bubbles and smooth them out.
Visible seams or misaligned pattern.
Carefully align the edges of each strip when applying the wallpaper. Take your time, and double-check the pattern match before adhering the paper to the wall. For a perfect match, slightly overlap the edges.
Air bubbles appear under the wallpaper.
Use a smoothing tool or a soft cloth to gently push air bubbles towards the edges of the wallpaper. If the bubbles persist, use a pin to carefully release the air and smooth the surface.
Wallpaper tears during application.
Handle the wallpaper with care. Ensure your hands are clean. If a tear occurs, try to repair it by carefully matching the pattern and applying a small amount of paste to secure the area.
