You will need a high-quality adhesive specifically designed for 'Paste the Paper' wallpaper. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for application and booking time.
The wallpaper is spongeable, meaning you can gently wipe away minor marks with a damp (not wet) cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing.
An offset match (also known as a half-drop repeat) means that every second strip is shifted vertically by half the pattern repeat. The design repeat is 53cm, so the offset is 26.5cm. This requires careful alignment when hanging subsequent strips.
While spongeable, this is a paper-based wallpaper and is not ideal for high-moisture environments like bathrooms or kitchens, where moisture can lead to damage. It is best suited for living areas, bedrooms, or dining rooms.
This wallpaper is wet removable. You can dampen the wallpaper thoroughly with water (or a solution of water and wallpaper stripper) to soften the adhesive, then peel it away from the wall.
Each roll measures 1005.0 cm in height and 53.0 cm in width, with a depth of 0.1 cm.
The texture and pattern can help to camouflage minor wall imperfections, but it is always best to prepare the wall surface as smoothly as possible for the best finish.
Ensure the wall is properly prepared (clean, dry, primed). Verify that the correct type and amount of adhesive have been used and that the wallpaper has had adequate booking time.
Check the offset match requirements (26.5cm repeat). Ensure each strip is hung at the correct height and position relative to the previous strip. Measure and mark guidelines if necessary.
Immediately after applying a strip, use a wallpaper brush or smoother to gently push air towards the edges. If bubbles persist, they may need to be pricked with a fine needle and smoothed.
Reduce the amount of adhesive applied or shorten the booking time. Handle the paper gently, especially when wet, to prevent tearing.
Setup: This is a 'Paste the Paper' wallpaper. Ensure you have a suitable wallpaper adhesive for paste-the-paper applications. Apply the adhesive evenly to the back of the wallpaper strip, allowing the recommended soaking time (booking time) as per the adhesive manufacturer's instructions before hanging. Hang strips vertically, ensuring the pattern aligns correctly with the offset match (26.5cm repeat). Use a brush or roller to smooth out air bubbles as you apply.
Compatibility: Suitable for most interior walls. Ensure walls are clean, dry, and free from old wallpaper or loose paint. A primer is recommended for optimal adhesion, especially on new plaster or absorbent surfaces.
Care: This wallpaper is spongeable. For light marks or dirt, gently wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as this can damage the paper. For more thorough cleaning, consult wallpaper care guides specific to paper-based materials. It is also wet removable, meaning it can be stripped off the wall when saturated with water during future redecoration.
