FAQs
What type of paint can I use on this wallpaper?
You can use most emulsion paints. However, it's recommended to test the paint on a small, inconspicuous area of the wallpaper first to ensure compatibility and the desired finish.
How do I calculate how many rolls of wallpaper I need?
Measure the height and width of your walls, and calculate the total surface area. Subtract the area of doors and windows. Then, factor in the pattern repeat (1 cm) and the roll dimensions (10m x 53cm) to determine the number of rolls needed.
Can this wallpaper be used in a bathroom?
While the wallpaper is spongeable, bathrooms can have high humidity. Ensure the room is well-ventilated, and consider a suitable sealant to protect the wallpaper from moisture.
Is the wallpaper easy to remove?
Removal depends on the adhesive used and how well the wall was prepared. The wallpaper should be easier to remove using a wallpaper stripper and following the manufacturer's instructions.
What is the pattern repeat?
The pattern repeat is 1 cm.
What type of application is required?
Paste-the-paper application is required.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper not sticking to the wall.
Ensure the wall is properly prepared (clean, dry, smooth). Use a good quality wallpaper adhesive and apply it evenly. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the adhesive.
Bubbles or air pockets under the wallpaper.
Use a wallpaper smoother to gently push the bubbles out towards the edges. If bubbles persist, carefully lift the wallpaper and re-apply, ensuring no air is trapped.
Seams are visible.
Ensure the edges are properly aligned and butted tightly together. Use a seam roller to flatten the seams. Consider priming the wall before hanging to provide a good surface to adhere to.
Paint not adhering to the wallpaper.
Make sure the wallpaper is completely dry before painting. Use a primer specifically designed for wallpaper to improve paint adhesion. Use quality paint and follow the paint manufacturer’s instructions.
