Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Prepare Your Walls: Ensure walls are clean, dry, smooth, and free from old wallpaper, loose paint, or debris. For best results, prime porous walls or apply a wallpaper liner.

For subsequent strips, align the pattern carefully with the previous cut strip, accounting for the 53cm straight repeat, and then cut. Remember to keep rolls with *matching batch codes* together.
- Apply Paste: Apply a high-quality wallpaper paste evenly to the back of the wallpaper strip (check manufacturer recommendations for paste-the-paper or paste-the-wall types, though this is typically paste-the-paper).
- Hang Strips: Starting from a corner or a plumb line, carefully apply the first strip to the wall, smoothing out any air bubbles with a brush or smoother. Repeat for subsequent strips, ensuring the *53cm straight match* aligns perfectly. Trim excess from the top and bottom.
- Clean Up: Immediately wipe away any excess paste with a damp sponge.

Care
