FAQs
What is the best way to prepare walls for this wallpaper?
Walls should be clean, dry, smooth, and free from old wallpaper or loose paint. Fill any cracks or holes, sand them smooth, and apply a suitable primer or sealer if necessary.
Can I use this wallpaper in a kitchen?
Yes, it can be used in a kitchen, but avoid areas directly behind the cooker or sink where it might be exposed to excessive steam or grease. Ensure good ventilation.
How do I remove this wallpaper when I want a change?
Due to the paste-the-wall application, it should strip off easily in dry strips. If there are stubborn remnants, use a wallpaper stripper solution as per the product's instructions.
Does the textured finish make it hard to clean?
The textured finish requires gentle cleaning with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive materials that could damage the texture or pattern.
What kind of paste should I use?
Use a high-quality, ready-mixed or powder wallpaper paste suitable for paste-the-wall products. Follow the paste manufacturer's specific instructions for application rates.
Is the grey color consistent across different batches?
While efforts are made to ensure color consistency, slight variations can occur between batches. It's recommended to purchase all the wallpaper needed for a project from the same batch.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or creases appear during hanging
Smooth the wallpaper firmly with a wallpaper brush or smoothing tool, working from the center outwards to push out air. If a crease is severe, you may need to lift the strip carefully and re-apply.
Pattern does not align correctly
Ensure the first strip is perfectly vertical using a spirit level. Subsequent strips should align with the preceding one. Slight adjustments can be made while the paste is wet, but avoid overworking the paper.
Wallpaper is difficult to trim
Use a very sharp wallpaper blade or craft knife and a straight edge. Trim immediately after hanging each strip while the paste is still wet, but the paper is firm.
Paste is visible on the surface after drying
Gently wipe the area with a clean, damp sponge. Ensure you use minimal water and dry immediately with a clean cloth to avoid watermarks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure your walls are clean, dry, and smooth before starting. Apply wallpaper paste directly to the wall according to the paste manufacturer's instructions. Hang the wallpaper strips, aligning the pattern carefully. Trim excess with a sharp blade.
Compatibility: This wallpaper is compatible with most standard interior wall surfaces, including plaster, drywall, and previously painted surfaces (ensure paint is sound and non- Peelable). It is not recommended for use in very high-humidity areas like bathrooms without adequate ventilation, or in areas prone to direct moisture.
Care: To clean, gently wipe with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as this can damage the embossed texture and pattern. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution may be used sparingly.
