FAQs

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use a high-quality, all-purpose wallpaper adhesive suitable for vinyl and heavyweight papers. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for mixing and application.

Can this wallpaper be used in a bathroom or kitchen?

While the surface is wipeable, it is not specifically designed for high-moisture environments like bathrooms or kitchens. Ensure good ventilation if used in such areas, and avoid direct contact with water or steam.

How do I remove this wallpaper when I want a change?

As it's vinyl, it may be strippable. Try peeling from a corner; if it comes off easily in large sections, it's strippable. If not, use a wallpaper scorer and steam or a water-based stripper solution, followed by washing the wall.

What is the roll size?

Each roll measures 10 meters in length and 53 centimeters in width.

Does the pattern repeat? If so, how often?

The design has a pattern repeat, which is typical for wallpapers. Specific repeat details should be checked on the product packaging or manufacturer's website, but generally, ensure alignment for a seamless look.

Is this wallpaper suitable for a beginner?

The paste-the-paper method is traditional and requires care. While manageable for a confident DIYer with good preparation, beginners might find pre-pasted or peel-and-stick options easier.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles or air pockets appear during application.

Smooth out bubbles immediately with a wallpaper brush or seam roller, working from the center outwards. If a bubble is missed, try to gently lift the edge of the wallpaper and re-smooth.

Wallpaper is not adhering properly.

Ensure the correct type of wallpaper adhesive has been used and applied evenly to the paper. Check that the wall surface is clean, dry, and suitably prepared. Ensure adequate booking time for the paste.

Seams are visible or opening up.

Ensure a consistent, even application of paste along the edges. Use a seam roller gently to press seams down. If seams are opening after drying, a small amount of vinyl wallpaper adhesive may be carefully applied with a fine brush.

Difficulty in trimming excess wallpaper.

Use a sharp wallpaper trimming knife or utility knife and a straight edge (like a level or ruler) for clean, precise cuts. Change blades frequently for best results.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique, exclusive design differentiates it from mass-produced options.
  • Durable and wipeable vinyl material ensures easy maintenance.
  • Versatile styling complements both modern and classic interiors.
  • Generous roll size is practical for most wall applications.

Cons

  • Requires traditional paste-the-paper application, which may be more involved for beginners.
  • The specific gold and cream palette might not suit all existing color schemes.
  • As a feature wallpaper, it can be a significant focal point, which may not be desired in all rooms.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This wallpaper uses a traditional paste-the-paper application. Ensure walls are clean, dry, and properly prepared (primed if necessary). Apply wallpaper adhesive evenly to the back of the wallpaper strip according to the adhesive manufacturer's instructions. Allow a brief booking time for the paste to penetrate the paper before hanging.

Compatibility:

Suitable for most interior walls, including plaster, plasterboard, and previously papered surfaces (ensure old wallpaper is sound and paste adheres well). It is recommended for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, dining areas, and offices. Ensure good ventilation during and after application.

Care:

The vinyl surface is wipeable. For cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, which could damage the finish or the adhesive.
