Full details

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 often quicker and less messy.
How washable is this wallpaper?
The 'extra washable' rating indicates that minor marks and smudges can be gently wiped away with a damp cloth or sponge, making it suitable for areas that may require occasional cleaning.
Can this wallpaper be used in a bathroom?
While it is washable, it is not designed for high-moisture environments like bathrooms or kitchens directly adjacent to cooking or washing areas unless properly sealed with a suitable waterproof sealant.
What kind of adhesive should I use?
Use a high-quality adhesive specifically designed for vinyl or non-woven wallpapers. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for mixing and application.
How do I prepare the wall before applying this wallpaper?
Walls should be clean, dry, smooth, and sound. Remove any old wallpaper, paint, or loose material. Fill any cracks or holes, and sand smooth. A primer might be beneficial for optimal adhesion.
What are the dimensions of the wallpaper roll?
Please refer to the product packaging or retailer for the exact roll dimensions, as this information is not provided in the product description.
Can I paint over this wallpaper?
While this wallpaper has a rich color and texture, it is not typically designed to be painted over. Painting may obscure the subtle texture and alter the intended finish.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper not sticking to the wall
Ensure the wall is properly prepared (clean, dry, and lightly sanded if necessary) and that the correct wallpaper adhesive has been used and applied generously to the wall.
Visible air bubbles after hanging
Gently smooth out bubbles towards the nearest edge with a clean wallpaper brush or roller before the adhesive dries. If dried, a syringe can be used to inject adhesive into small bubbles.
Seams are visible or separating
Check that the wallpaper strips were aligned precisely. If the adhesive is still wet, gently press the seam together. If dry, a seam roller might help, or a small amount of seam adhesive can be applied carefully with a fine brush.
Difficulty removing the wallpaper
Ensure the wallpaper is fully stripped using the designated method. If it's resistant, a steamer or a specific wallpaper removal solution might be needed. Ensure the wall is not damaged during removal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This wallpaper is designed for a 'paste-the-wall' application. Prepare your walls by ensuring they are clean, dry, smooth, and free from any old wallpaper or loose paint. Apply wallpaper adhesive evenly to the wall where the first strip will hang. Measure and cut your wallpaper strips to the required length, allowing for a slight overlap at the ceiling and skirting board. Hang the first strip, ensuring it is perfectly vertical using a spirit level. Smooth the wallpaper onto the pasted wall using a clean brush or roller, working from the center outwards to remove air bubbles. Continue with subsequent strips, aligning the edges closely. Trim any excess at the ceiling and skirting board with a sharp blade.
Compatibility:
Suitable for most interior walls, including living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms, and hallways. It is recommended to use a quality wallpaper adhesive suitable for vinyl and non-woven wallpapers. Not recommended for areas of high condensation or direct water contact without appropriate sealing.
Care:
This wallpaper is 'extra washable'. To clean, gently wipe away marks or smudges with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh scrubbing, as this can damage the textured surface and the color. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a clean damp cloth rinse. Ensure the area is dried thoroughly.
