FAQs

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use a wallpaper adhesive specifically designed for vinyl wallpapers.

Can I use this wallpaper in a bathroom?

While the wallpaper is washable, bathrooms may have excessive humidity. Ensure adequate ventilation to prevent moisture damage.

How do I remove the wallpaper?

Being peelable, it should remove easily. Start from a corner or edge and gently peel away the paper. Use a wallpaper stripper solution if necessary to remove any remaining adhesive.

How do I clean the wallpaper?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbing too hard.

Is the color of the wallpaper exactly as shown in the picture?

Color representations can vary depending on screen settings. Consider ordering a sample or checking the actual product before purchasing in bulk.

What is the warranty period?

The wallpaper comes with a 1-year guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Wallpaper not sticking to the wall.

Ensure the wall is properly prepared (clean, smooth, and primed). Use the correct adhesive and apply it according to the manufacturer's instructions. Press the wallpaper firmly to the wall and smooth out any air bubbles.

Air bubbles appear after hanging.

Use a smoothing tool to push out air bubbles from the center to the edges. If bubbles persist, use a pin to prick them and smooth the area.

Seams are visible.

Ensure the edges are butted together tightly. Use a seam roller to flatten the seams. Consider overlapping the edges slightly if the pattern requires.
