FAQs

What type of paste should I use?

You should use a wallpaper paste specifically designed for the 'paste the paper' application method. Follow the paste manufacturer's instructions.

How do I calculate how many rolls I need?

Measure the height and width of the walls you plan to cover. Calculate the total square footage and divide by the coverage of one roll (53cm x 10.05m). Consider the pattern repeat when estimating.

Can I use this wallpaper in a bathroom or kitchen?

While the wallpaper is suitable for most rooms, consider the level of moisture. Ensure good ventilation to prevent any issues. It is best to avoid direct contact with water.

How do I remove the wallpaper?

The removal process will depend on the paste used. Typically, you can soak the wallpaper with warm water and use a scraper to remove it. Be careful not to damage the underlying wall.

What tools do I need?

You will need a measuring tape, level, wallpaper paste, smoothing tool, sharp knife or scissors, a pencil, and a seam roller (optional).

What if I make a mistake while hanging?

If you make a small mistake, you can usually carefully peel back the wallpaper and re-apply it. For larger mistakes, consider trimming and patching with a spare piece.

Can I paint over this wallpaper?

It is generally not recommended to paint over wallpaper, especially if it has a textured finish. The paint may not adhere well and could affect the design.

Troubleshooting

Wallpaper is not sticking to the wall.

Ensure the wall is properly prepared (clean, smooth, and primed). Use the correct type and amount of wallpaper paste. Press the wallpaper firmly to the wall and smooth out any air bubbles.

Pattern matching is difficult.

Carefully measure and align each strip according to the offset match instructions (26.5cm). Consider using a level to keep the pattern straight.

Air bubbles are forming under the wallpaper.

Use a smoothing tool to push the air bubbles out towards the edges of the wallpaper. Use a pin to prick and smooth the bigger bubbles.

Wallpaper is peeling at the seams.

Ensure the seams are properly adhered. Use a seam roller or smoothing tool to press the edges firmly. If necessary, apply a small amount of extra paste to the seams.
