Muriva Venezia Renata Heavyweight Italian Vinyl Floral Wallpaper - Multicolor - Floral

For heavyweight vinyl wallpaper, it is recommended to use a high-quality, strong-bonding wallpaper adhesive specifically designed for vinyl or heavy papers. Always follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.

This wallpaper is 'scrubbable.' You can gently wipe it with a damp cloth or sponge and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing, as this can damage the finish.

While the wallpaper is durable, it's not specifically rated for high-moisture environments like bathrooms or kitchens where steam and condensation are prevalent. It's best suited for living areas, bedrooms, and hallways.

The pattern repeat is 64cm with a straight match. This means you will need to align the pattern every 64cm down the roll.

Each roll is 10.05m long by 53cm wide. Measure the height and width of your walls, calculate the square meterage, and account for the pattern repeat to determine the number of rolls. It's generally advisable to purchase an extra roll for any cutting errors or future repairs.

The wallpaper has good lightfastness, which means the colours, including the metallic gold highlights, are designed to resist fading from normal indoor light exposure. However, prolonged direct sunlight can eventually cause fading over time.

Heavyweight vinyl wallpapers can be more challenging to remove than standard papers. Typically, they are strippable, meaning the top layer can be peeled off, leaving the backing paper, which can then be removed with water and a scraper.

Gently lift the edge of the affected section and re-smooth it with a clean wallpaper brush or roller, ensuring all adhesive is spread evenly underneath. If the paper has already dried, small bubbles may eventually disappear on their own, or carefully prick a tiny hole with a pin and smooth down.

Ensure you are aligning the design precisely according to the 64cm straight pattern repeat. It may be necessary to trim slightly more from one edge to achieve a perfect match. Double-check that the wallpaper is not upside down.

Use a very sharp trimming knife or blade and a metal straight edge. Change the blade frequently, as a dull blade will tear the paper rather than cut it cleanly.

Ensure the wall surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and slightly porous). Check that you are using the correct type and amount of wallpaper adhesive for heavyweight vinyl, and that the adhesive has been applied evenly to the paper.
