FAQs

What kind of wallpaper paste should I use with this product?

This wallpaper requires a standard wallpaper paste. Always ensure you use a high-quality, pre-mixed or mixable adhesive designed for 'paste the paper' application, following the paste manufacturer's instructions for mixing and application.

Is this wallpaper easy to clean?

Yes, the Muriva Cove wallpaper has a wipeable surface. For most marks or dust, simply use a clean, damp cloth to gently wipe the affected area. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, which could damage the texture or metallic finish.

Can I use this wallpaper in a bathroom or kitchen?

While the wipeable surface offers some practicality, this wallpaper is primarily designed for and recommended in bedrooms and living rooms to add texture and warmth. For high-humidity environments like bathrooms, it is generally advised to choose wallpapers specifically formulated for such conditions.

What is an 'offset design match' and how does it affect installation?

An offset design match (64cm for this product) means that the pattern on the right edge of a strip will match the pattern on the left edge of the next strip, but it needs to be dropped (offset) by a specific distance (64cm) to align correctly. This requires careful measurement and cutting of each subsequent strip to ensure the pattern flows seamlessly across the wall.

How many rolls will I need for my room?

To calculate the number of rolls, measure the height and total perimeter of your walls. Divide the total perimeter by the roll width (53cm) to find the number of strips needed. Then, divide the total area of your walls by the area of one roll (10.05m x 0.53m). Always account for the 64cm offset design match, which will result in some waste, and it's always recommended to purchase an extra roll to account for mistakes or future repairs. Consult a wallpaper calculator or professional for precise estimation. Info needed: Detailed calculation example based on room size.

Can this wallpaper be painted over?

This wallpaper is designed to be a finished decorative surface with its unique texture and metallic accents. Painting over it would obscure these features and is generally not recommended. If you desire a different color, it's best to remove this wallpaper and apply a new one or paint the wall directly.

Troubleshooting

Wallpaper bubbles or blisters appear after drying

This often occurs due to uneven paste application or trapped air. When hanging, ensure paste is applied evenly and smooth thoroughly from the center outwards. For dried bubbles, a fine needle can be used to puncture the bubble and release air, then gently smooth the area. If large, a small cut with a utility knife can release air and allow re-smoothing.

Visible seams between wallpaper strips

Visible seams can result from improper alignment, insufficient paste at edges, or paper shrinking. Ensure strips are perfectly butt-joined (not overlapped) and use a seam roller during installation to press edges firmly. If dry, carefully apply a small amount of seam adhesive with a fine brush under the lifting edge and press down.

Difficulty matching the pattern during installation

The Muriva Cove wallpaper has a 64cm offset design match. Always cut your next strip by aligning the pattern to the previously hung strip *before* applying paste. Take your time, lay out lengths dry if necessary, and use a plumb line for the first strip to ensure a straight start, which makes subsequent matching easier.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Walls: Ensure walls are clean, dry, smooth, and free from any loose paint or old wallpaper. Fill any holes or cracks and sand smooth. Apply a primer if necessary for optimal adhesion and uniform absorption.
  2. Gather Tools: You will need a tape measure, spirit level, plumb line, pencil, wallpaper paste, paste brush/roller, smoothing brush/smoother, utility knife, cutting guide, and a damp sponge.
  3. Measure and Cut: Measure your wall height, adding 5-10cm extra for trimming. Unroll the wallpaper and cut your first length. Important: Refer to the `64cm offset design match`. Cut subsequent lengths, aligning the pattern carefully before cutting.
  4. Apply Paste: Lay the first wallpaper length face down on a clean pasting table. Apply a generous, even layer of wallpaper paste to the back of the paper, covering all edges. Fold the pasted ends towards the center (booking) to allow the paste to soak in for 5-10 minutes (refer to paste instructions).
  5. Hang First Strip: Use a plumb line to draw a vertical line on your wall where the first strip will be placed. Carefully lift the pasted strip and align it with your plumb line at the top of the wall, leaving a small overlap at the ceiling.
  6. Smooth Out: Using a wallpaper smoother or brush, gently smooth the paper from the center outwards, removing any air bubbles. Trim excess at the ceiling and baseboards with a utility knife and cutting guide.
  7. Match and Hang Subsequent Strips: For the next strip, align the pattern carefully with the previous strip before pressing firmly onto the wall. Use a seam roller along the seams to ensure good adhesion. Continue this process around the room.
  8. Clean Up: Immediately wipe off any excess paste from the wallpaper surface or adjacent walls with a damp sponge.

Compatibility

This wallpaper is perfectly suited for bedrooms and living rooms, where its textured design and warm cream tones can create an inviting atmosphere. While its wipeable surface offers some practical benefits, it is not specifically designed for high-moisture environments like bathrooms or areas with direct water contact.

Care Instructions

  • Cleaning: The Muriva Cove Wallpaper features a wipeable surface. For light dirt or marks, gently wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, as this can damage the metallic ink or texture. Pat dry with a soft, clean cloth.
  • Maintenance: Regularly dust the wallpaper to prevent build-up. Address any lifted seams promptly by re-applying a small amount of wallpaper adhesive underneath and pressing firmly.
