Troubleshooting

Brush leaves streaks or marks on wallpaper.

Ensure the brush bristles are clean and free from dried paste. Smooth gently and avoid excessive pressure, especially on delicate papers.

Bristles feel too stiff.

For very delicate wallpapers, you can try softening the bristles slightly by dipping them in clean water and shaking off the excess. However, the firm bristles are intended for effective smoothing.

Difficulty smoothing corners or edges.

Use the edge of the brush or a smaller smoothing tool for intricate areas where the 9-inch width might be too large.

Handle feels uncomfortable during long sessions.

Ensure you are holding the brush with the ergonomic grip. Taking short breaks can also help alleviate discomfort.
