Product Information
Full details
This Belgravia Zambaiti Parati Marrakech Tree Red Wallpaper is designed for homeowners seeking to infuse their living spaces with exotic Moroccan charm. Its key benefit is the ability to create a rich, textured, and durable feature wall inspired by ancient architecture and artisanal crafts. A potential caveat is that, as a heavyweight vinyl, it requires a specific application method (paste-the-wall) which may differ from traditional wallpapering techniques.

FAQs
What is the 'paste-the-wall' application method?
Paste-the-wall means you apply the wallpaper adhesive directly onto the wall, not onto the back of the wallpaper. You then hang the dry wallpaper strip onto the pasted wall, which generally makes the process quicker and less messy.
What kind of adhesive should I use?
You should use a high-quality adhesive specifically designed for heavyweight vinyl wallpapers and suitable for paste-the-wall application. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for mixing and application.
Can this wallpaper be used in a kitchen?
While durable, it's best suited for main living areas. If used in a kitchen, ensure good ventilation and avoid direct contact with cooking splatters or excessive steam, as this can affect the adhesive and material over time.
How do I clean off minor marks?
For minor marks, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid scrubbing or using harsh cleaning agents, as these can damage the textured finish and the print.
What are the dimensions of the wallpaper roll?
Please refer to the product packaging or the retailer's specific product listing for the exact dimensions (length and width) of the wallpaper roll.
Is this wallpaper paintable?
This wallpaper is designed with a specific print and texture; it is not intended to be painted over. Painting may obscure the design and damage the material.
What is the pattern repeat of this wallpaper?
The pattern repeat details should be available on the product packaging or the retailer's specification sheet. This information is crucial for ensuring the pattern aligns correctly between strips.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper not adhering well
Ensure the correct type of adhesive for heavyweight vinyl and paste-the-wall application is used. Verify the wall surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and sound) and that enough adhesive has been applied to the wall.
Bubbles or wrinkles appearing
Smooth out the wallpaper gently with a clean, damp smoothing tool or brush, working from the center outwards towards the edges before the adhesive fully sets. If bubbles persist after drying, they may need to be carefully pricked with a fine needle and the area gently pressed down.
Pattern doesn't align between strips
Double-check that each strip is hung straight and that the pattern repeat is correctly matched with the previous strip. Minor adjustments can be made before the adhesive sets, but significant misalignment might require re-hanging the affected strips.
Difficult to cut edges cleanly
Use a very sharp, fresh wallpaper trimming knife or blade and a straight edge. Make cuts firmly and in one smooth motion for the cleanest finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This wallpaper utilizes a paste-the-wall application. Apply wallpaper adhesive directly to the wall surface where the first strip will be hung. Then, hang the wallpaper strip directly onto the pasted wall. Ensure the adhesive is suitable for heavyweight vinyl and paste-the-wall application. Trim excess at the ceiling and skirting board with a sharp blade once adhered.
Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls. Ensure walls are clean, dry, smooth, and sound before application. Remove any old wallpaper or loose coatings. Not recommended for use in areas of consistently high moisture, such as bathrooms without adequate ventilation.
Care: To maintain the appearance and texture, gently dust regularly with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner attachment on a low setting. For minor marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used very carefully, avoiding excessive rubbing, as this could damage the texture. Do not use abrasive cleaners or excessive water.
