FAQs

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use a wallpaper paste specifically designed for paste-the-paper application. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for mixing and application.

Can I use this wallpaper in a bathroom?

While the wallpaper is spongeable, it is not recommended for areas with high moisture levels. Ensure the bathroom is well-ventilated.

How do I remove the wallpaper?

Because it is wet removable, dampen the wallpaper with warm water, let it soak for a few minutes, and then gently peel it away from the wall. You may need a wallpaper removal solution for stubborn areas.

What is the design repeat?

The design repeat is 53/26.5cm, so ensure you account for this when measuring and hanging the wallpaper.

Can I order a sample?

Check with the retailer to see if wallpaper samples are available before committing to a full roll.

What is the size of each roll?

Each roll measures 1005cm in length and 53cm in width.

What is the lightfastness rating?

The wallpaper offers good lightfastness, helping to maintain color vibrancy over time.

Troubleshooting

Air bubbles appear after hanging.

Use a smoothing brush or tool to gently push the air bubbles towards the edges of the wallpaper. For persistent bubbles, gently prick them with a pin and smooth them out.

Seams are visible after drying.

Ensure the edges are properly aligned during hanging. Use a seam roller to gently press the seams together. If seams are still visible, consider using a seam adhesive.

Wallpaper is not adhering to the wall.

Ensure you are using the correct type of adhesive for paste-the-paper application and that the wall surface is properly prepared. Apply sufficient paste to the back of the wallpaper and allow it to soak for the recommended time.

Pattern match is off.

Double-check the offset match instructions. Carefully align the patterns before applying paste and hanging the next strip. Make adjustments as needed to ensure the pattern flows seamlessly.
