FAQs
What does 'Paste the Wall' mean?
'Paste the Wall' means you apply the adhesive directly to the wall surface before hanging the wallpaper strip, rather than pasting the back of the paper itself. This method is generally quicker and less messy.
Can this wallpaper cover cracks and imperfections?
Yes, the textured embossed finish is designed to help discreetly cover minor cracks and imperfections on the wall surface, providing a more flawless final appearance.
What kind of adhesive should I use?
Use a good quality, heavy-duty wallpaper adhesive suitable for 'paste the wall' applications. Check the wallpaper manufacturer's recommendations for specific adhesive types.
How do I clean this wallpaper?
You can clean the wallpaper by gently wiping it with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this could damage the finish.
Is this wallpaper suitable for a bathroom?
While it can be used in low-moisture areas like powder rooms, it is not recommended for high-humidity environments such as showers or steamy bathrooms, as excessive moisture can affect adhesion and the material.
What are the main colors in this wallpaper?
The main colors are deep luxurious shades of black with a subtle golden sheen, designed to mimic an elegant marble texture.
How do I remove this wallpaper when I want a change?
Typically, 'paste the wall' wallpapers can be stripped dry from the wall. If some adhesive residue remains, it can usually be removed with warm water and a sponge.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper not adhering well
Ensure the wall surface is properly prepared, clean, and dry. Use the recommended type of wallpaper adhesive and apply it evenly to the wall.
Visible air bubbles after application
Gently lift the edge of the wallpaper strip and re-smooth it onto the wall, working from the center outwards. A soft brush or wallpaper smoothing tool can help push out trapped air.
Difficulty aligning pattern between strips
Take care to align the pattern precisely before smoothing the strip. If a slight misalignment occurs, carefully adjust the strip before the adhesive sets. Ensure the correct overlap or butt-joint is maintained as per instructions.
Damage to embossed texture during application
Handle the wallpaper with care, especially when smoothing. Use light pressure and a soft tool to avoid compressing or tearing the textured finish.
