FAQs

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use a standard wallpaper paste suitable for non-woven or paste-the-wall products. Always follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for application and drying times.

Can this wallpaper border be applied over existing wallpaper?

It is best applied to a clean, bare wall. Applying over existing wallpaper may lead to adhesion issues or an uneven finish. Remove old wallpaper first.

How do I remove the wallpaper border?

Most wallpaper borders can be removed by starting at a seam and peeling slowly. If adhesive residue remains, use a wallpaper stripper solution or warm, soapy water and a sponge.

What are the dimensions of the border?

The product description specifies the pattern repeat is 53 cm. Specific width and length of the roll are not provided but are typical for wallpaper borders.

Is this suitable for a bathroom or kitchen?

This border is designed for general interior walls. It is not recommended for high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens unless specifically stated by the manufacturer, as excessive humidity can affect adhesion and durability.

How much border do I need for my room?

Measure the total length of the walls where you want to apply the border. Divide this total length by the pattern repeat (53 cm) to estimate the number of pattern repeats needed, and add a little extra for cuts and errors.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles or wrinkles after application

Gently lift the edge of the border and reapply, smoothing from the center outwards with a clean, dry cloth or a plastic smoother.

Pattern does not align correctly

Carefully peel back the section and adjust the positioning. Ensure the 53 cm repeat is correctly matched with the previous section before pressing firmly.

Border not sticking to the wall

Check that the correct type of wallpaper adhesive was used and applied evenly to the wall. Ensure the wall surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, and smooth).

Color variation between strips

This is unlikely if all strips are from the same production batch. If perceived, ensure lighting conditions are consistent and that the pattern is aligned correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To apply the As Creation Yellow Diggers Wallpaper Border, ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Apply a suitable wallpaper adhesive directly to the wall following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions. Carefully align the wallpaper border, matching the pattern repeat (every 53 cm), and press firmly from the center outwards to remove air bubbles. Trim any excess with a sharp blade.

Compatibility: This border is designed for application on most smooth, prepared interior walls. It is not recommended for textured, damp, or freshly painted surfaces.
