Muriva Cove Wallpaper - Charcoal Textured - Grey

You should use a good quality, ready-mixed wallpaper paste specifically formulated for 'paste the paper' application.

While this wallpaper is wipeable, it is generally recommended for use in bedrooms and living rooms. High humidity environments like bathrooms may affect its long-term adhesion and appearance, so it's not explicitly recommended for such areas.

To estimate, measure the total width of your walls and the height of your walls. Divide the total wall width by the wallpaper width (53cm) to get the number of 'drops' needed. Then, divide the roll length (10.05m) by your wall height plus the design repeat (64cm) to find out how many drops you can get from one roll. Finally, divide the total drops needed by the drops per roll. Always purchase an extra roll to account for pattern matching and potential errors.

This wallpaper is designed to be a finished surface with its own unique texture and metallic accents. Painting over it is not recommended as it would cover these features and alter its intended aesthetic.

An offset match means that the pattern on the right edge of a wallpaper strip matches the pattern on the left edge of the next strip, but at a different height. For this wallpaper, it's a 64cm offset repeat, meaning you'll need to slide the next strip up or down by 64cm to align the pattern seamlessly.

As a 'paste the paper' wallpaper, it is typically strippable when dry, meaning it may peel off in full sheets from the wall. Alternatively, it can be soaked with warm water and a wallpaper remover solution, then scraped off. Always follow general wallpaper removal guidelines.

During application, ensure thorough smoothing from the center outwards to remove all air. If bubbles appear after drying, for small bubbles, you might carefully inject a small amount of paste with a syringe and re-smooth. For larger bubbles, cutting a small slit, applying paste, and smoothing can work, but this should be avoided by careful application.

Ensure strips are butt-joined closely during application without overlapping. Use a seam roller or a clean, damp cloth to firmly press down seams immediately after hanging. If a seam lifts after drying, carefully re-apply paste to the underside of the lifting edge and press firmly back into place.

The Muriva Cove wallpaper has a 64cm offset design repeat. When cutting subsequent strips, you must ensure the pattern aligns correctly by shifting the new strip vertically relative to the previous one before applying paste and hanging. Double-check your alignment carefully before pressing the strip firmly onto the wall.

Ensure the wall surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, smooth, primed if necessary) and that you used a good quality, sufficient amount of 'paste the paper' wallpaper adhesive. Also, check that the paper 'booked' for the correct amount of time, allowing it to expand before hanging.
