FAQs

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use a high-quality wallpaper adhesive specifically formulated for non-woven (fleece) wallpapers. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for mixing and application.

Can I hang this wallpaper myself?

Yes, the 'Paste the Wall' application and free pattern match are designed for easier DIY installation compared to traditional wallpapers.

How do I clean this wallpaper?

The wallpaper is scrubbable. Use a clean, damp cloth or sponge for light marks. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.

What are the dimensions of one roll?

Each roll measures 10.05 meters (approximately 33 feet) in length and 53 centimeters (approximately 20.8 inches) in width.

Is this wallpaper suitable for a bathroom or kitchen?

While it is scrubbable, it is generally recommended for living areas, bedrooms, and hallways. For very high-moisture environments like bathrooms or kitchens, consider wallpapers specifically designed for these conditions.

How long will the color last?

The wallpaper has good lightfastness properties, meaning the neutral tones are protected against fading from sunlight exposure, ensuring its color remains vibrant for an extended period.

What is a 'free pattern match'?

A free pattern match means that the pattern does not need to be perfectly aligned between adjacent strips of wallpaper. This makes application more forgiving and reduces waste.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles or wrinkles appear after hanging

Gently lift the edge of the wallpaper and re-smooth it onto the wall, ensuring all air pockets are pushed out towards the edges. Use a wallpaper smoother or brush.

Pattern does not align correctly

This wallpaper has a free pattern match, meaning precise alignment is not required between drops. Ensure you are hanging the paper in the correct orientation as indicated on the roll.

Adhesive is visible on the surface

Use a clean, damp cloth or sponge to gently wipe away excess adhesive immediately after application. Do not rub vigorously.

Wallpaper feels loose or is peeling at the edges

Check if sufficient adhesive was applied to the wall. Apply a small amount of appropriate non-woven wallpaper adhesive to the affected edge and press firmly back onto the wall. You may need to re-hang the section.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This wallpaper utilizes 'Paste the Wall' technology. Apply a suitable wallpaper adhesive directly to the wall surface where the paper will be hung. Ensure the wall is clean, dry, and free from old wallpaper or loose paint. Smooth the wallpaper onto the adhesive using a wallpaper brush or smoothing tool, working from the center outwards.

Compatibility: Compatible with standard wallpaper adhesives designed for non-woven wallpapers. Ensure the adhesive is appropriate for the weight and material of the wallpaper. It is best suited for interior walls.

Care: The Antiga wallpaper is classified as 'scrubbable'. For light marks or dust, use a clean, damp cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, which could damage the textured surface. For more stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a wipe with a clean, damp cloth. Ensure the area is allowed to dry naturally.
