Designed to be incredibly thin and pliable, this paper adheres perfectly to both flat surfaces and intricate corners, though it requires a separate adhesive and varnish to complete the transformation.

FAQs

Can this paper be used on metal surfaces?

Yes, Décopatch paper is compatible with wood, metal, plastic, and paper mache.

Is the glue included in this pack?

No, the pack contains three sheets of paper; adhesive and varnish must be purchased separately.

Can I use this for outdoor garden decorations?

No, this product is intended for indoor use only as the materials are not weather-resistant.

Do I need to cut the paper with scissors?

It is recommended to tear the paper into small pieces, as the torn edges blend together more seamlessly than cut edges.

What is the recommended age for using this product?

This product is suitable for users aged 5 years and older.

Troubleshooting

Paper tearing during application

The paper is very thin; use a soft, damp brush to gently smooth it out rather than pressing with your fingers.

Air bubbles forming under the paper

Apply a slightly thicker layer of glue underneath and ensure you are brushing from the center outward to push the air to the edges.

Edges are lifting after drying

Apply a small amount of extra glue under the edge and press down, followed by a light coat of varnish to seal the seam.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting your project, ensure that the object you are covering is clean, dry, and free of dust. While the paper adheres to plastic, wood, metal, and paper mache, it is recommended for indoor use only.

  1. Surface Prep: Lightly sand rough wooden surfaces if necessary to ensure a smooth base.
  2. Adhesion: Use a dedicated decoupage glue for the best results.
  3. Application: Work from the center of the paper piece outward to prevent air bubbles.
  4. Maintenance: Finished projects should be kept away from direct sunlight or humid environments to preserve the integrity of the adhesive and paper color. Dust finished items with a dry, soft cloth.
