FAQs
What is the 'Paste The Wall' method?
This method involves applying the wallpaper adhesive directly to the wall instead of soaking the wallpaper itself. The dry paper is then applied to the pasted wall, making application generally quicker and simpler.
How do I clean the wallpaper?
The wallpaper is washable. Use a damp cloth or sponge to gently wipe away marks. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
What does 'Good Light Fastness' mean?
It means the wallpaper is designed to resist fading when exposed to sunlight, helping the colours and pattern remain vibrant for longer periods.
What is the pattern repeat and match?
The pattern repeat is 53cm, with a 26.5cm offset match. This means you will need to align a portion of the pattern from the previous strip when hanging the next one to ensure a continuous design.
Can I hang this wallpaper over existing wallpaper?
It is generally recommended to remove old wallpaper first. However, if the existing wallpaper is firmly attached and flat, you may be able to hang over it, but using a lining paper is often a better preparation step for a smoother finish.
What is the roll size and coverage?
Each roll measures 10 meters in length and 0.53 meters in width, covering approximately 5.32 square meters (57.7 sq. ft).
Is this wallpaper suitable for a bathroom?
While it is washable, it is a paper-based wallpaper. For very humid environments like bathrooms, a vinyl or more moisture-resistant wallpaper is typically recommended to prevent potential issues with moisture.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or wrinkles appearing after application
Gently lift the edge of the wallpaper strip and reapply, smoothing out from the center towards the edges with a wallpaper brush or smoother. Ensure paste is applied evenly to the wall.
Pattern does not match between strips
Carefully adjust the second strip to align with the pattern repeat (53/26.5cm offset match). Ensure the first strip is hung straight. It may be necessary to trim the edge of the second strip slightly for a tighter seam.
Wallpaper not sticking to the wall
Check that the correct type of adhesive for 'Paste The Wall' paper has been used and applied generously and evenly. Ensure the wall surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and free from contaminants).
Color appears different in various lighting conditions
This is normal due to the nature of light reflection. View the wallpaper in the intended room's lighting conditions after it has fully dried. The 'Good Light Fastness' rating indicates it will resist fading from sunlight over time.
