FAQs
Is this wallpaper suitable for bathrooms?
This wallpaper is not specifically rated for high-moisture environments; it is best suited for dry living areas like bedrooms, dining rooms, or hallways.
How do I clean the paper if it gets marked?
Use a very lightly dampened, soft cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can affect the pearlescent finish and the depth of the black ink.
Does the wallpaper come with paste?
No, this is a traditional wallpaper that requires a separate, high-quality adhesive applied during installation.
What kind of lighting works best with the black finish?
Soft, warm ambient lighting works well, but bright direct light will best accentuate the pearlescent effect of the swallows.
Can I paint over this wallpaper later?
Due to the pearlescent finish and the dark pigment, it is recommended to strip the wallpaper rather than paint over it for the best result.
Troubleshooting
Visible seams between wallpaper strips
Ensure the wall is primed with a tinted primer that matches the black background to minimize the visibility of tiny gaps.
Adhesive showing on the surface
Wipe away any excess paste immediately using a clean, damp, lint-free cloth, taking care not to scrub the pearlescent finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure your walls are properly prepared, primed, and sized to ensure proper adhesion, especially given the dark pigment of the paper. Use a high-quality, professional-grade adhesive suitable for luxury wallpapers to avoid staining. To maintain the integrity of the pearlescent finish, avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners. If dust accumulates, use a dry, soft microfiber cloth to gently wipe the surface. Keep the wallpaper away from direct, high-heat sources like radiators, which could cause the paper to shrink or peel over time. It is recommended to order extra rolls from the same batch to ensure color consistency across your installation.
