FAQs
What type of wallpaper paste should I use?
It is recommended to use a high-quality, pre-mixed wallpaper adhesive suitable for decorative and metallic wallpapers. Always follow the paste manufacturer's specific instructions.
Can this wallpaper be used in a bathroom?
This wallpaper is best suited for dry interior spaces. While it can tolerate low humidity, prolonged exposure to moisture in bathrooms is not recommended as it may affect adhesion and the metallic finish.
How do I remove the wallpaper when I want to redecorate?
Most wallpapers of this type are strippable. Begin by peeling at a corner. If it doesn't come off easily, you may need to steam it or use a wallpaper remover solution, following the product instructions carefully.
Will the metallic highlights fade over time?
The metallic highlights are designed for durability. However, like most decorative finishes, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. It's advisable to protect the wallpaper from intense, direct light sources.
Can I paint over this wallpaper?
This wallpaper is intended as a decorative finish and is generally not designed to be painted over, especially due to its metallic elements and intricate pattern. Painting could obscure the design and damage the finish.
How much wallpaper do I need to order?
Measure the width and height of your walls and calculate the total square footage. Account for pattern repeat and waste (typically 10-15%) when ordering to ensure you have enough matching material.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or wrinkles after application
Gently lift the edge of the affected area and re-smooth it down with a wallpaper brush or roller, ensuring the paste is still wet. If the paste has dried, you may need to re-paste the section or use a syringe to inject paste under the bubble.
Pattern does not match between strips
Carefully peel back the second strip and reposition it to align the pattern. Ensure you are not stretching the wallpaper, as this can affect the pattern match. Trim excess material precisely if needed.
Metallic highlights appear scuffed
Avoid applying excessive pressure when smoothing. If scuffing occurs, try gently buffing with a very soft, dry cloth. For severe scuffs, it may be necessary to replace the affected strip.
Wallpaper is difficult to cut
Use a sharp utility knife and a straight edge. Ensure the blade is changed frequently for clean cuts, especially around edges and corners. Allow paste to soften the paper slightly if it is proving too rigid.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your walls are clean, dry, and smooth before application. Repair any imperfections.
- Apply wallpaper paste evenly to the back of the wallpaper or directly to the wall, following the paste manufacturer's instructions.
- Hang the first strip level, and then butt subsequent strips together, ensuring the pattern matches.
- Use a smoothing brush or roller to eliminate air bubbles and ensure good adhesion.
Compatibility:
This wallpaper is suitable for most interior walls, including living areas, bedrooms, and hallways. It is recommended for use in dry, interior spaces. Avoid areas with high moisture or direct, prolonged sunlight which could fade the metallic elements over time.
Care:
To clean, gently wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the metallic highlights and the wallpaper surface. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and wipe gently, then follow with a clean damp cloth.
