FAQs
What type of adhesive should I use for this wallpaper?
Use a high-quality, ready-mixed or powder adhesive specifically formulated for vinyl wallpapers and suitable for the 'paste-the-wall' application method.
Can this wallpaper be used in a bathroom or kitchen?
While vinyl is more durable, it is not waterproof. It can be used in a kitchen or bathroom provided there is adequate ventilation and it is not exposed to direct splashes or excessive steam. Avoid areas directly behind sinks or shower enclosures.
How do I remove this wallpaper when I want to redecorate?
Most vinyl wallpapers are strippable. Often, the top vinyl layer can be peeled off, leaving the paper backing, which can then be removed with water and a scraper.
What does 'wide width' mean for wallpaper?
Wide width typically refers to rolls that are wider than standard wallpaper (often around 20.5 inches). This wallpaper's wide width means fewer seams on your wall, resulting in a more continuous and professional appearance.
Is the texture of the wallpaper difficult to clean?
The textured vinyl is generally easy to clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers that could damage the surface.
How much wallpaper do I need for my room?
Measure the width and height of your walls, calculate the total square footage, and consult the wallpaper roll's coverage specifications. Always account for pattern repeat and wastage (typically 10-15%) when purchasing.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or wrinkles during application
Use a wallpaper smoothing tool to gently push air towards the edges. If bubbles persist after drying, they may require careful lifting and re-smoothing, or a small prick with a pin to release air.
Adhesive not sticking properly
Ensure the correct type of adhesive for vinyl, paste-the-wall wallpaper has been used and applied evenly to the wall. Check that the wall surface is properly primed and dry.
Pattern does not align correctly
Carefully adjust the strip before the adhesive sets. For slight misalignments on subsequent strips, you may need to trim and re-apply. Ensure you are working with a level starting point.
Difficulty trimming edges
Use a sharp, fresh utility knife or rotary cutter and a straight edge (like a metal ruler) for clean cuts. Make cuts carefully and deliberately.
