FAQs

What type of paint is best to use on this wallpaper?

Use a paint suitable for wallpaper. Latex or acrylic paints are generally recommended. Always check the paint manufacturer's instructions and test in a small area before painting the entire wall.

How do I calculate how much wallpaper I need?

Measure the height and width of each wall and calculate the area. Consider the pattern repeat and match when calculating the number of rolls needed. It's always best to have a little extra to account for waste.

Can this wallpaper be used in a bathroom?

While the wallpaper is durable, it is best to avoid direct contact with water. Ensure good ventilation to minimize moisture buildup.

How do I remove this wallpaper?

Depending on the adhesive used, you may need to score the surface of the wallpaper with a utility knife and apply wallpaper remover. Follow the adhesive and wallpaper remover instructions for best results.

Is the wallpaper washable?

Yes, you can gently clean the wallpaper with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What is a pattern match?

A pattern match is the way the design on the wallpaper aligns from one strip to the next. This wallpaper has a half drop pattern match, meaning the pattern on each strip is offset by half the pattern repeat.

Troubleshooting

Wallpaper is not adhering to the wall.

Ensure you are using the correct adhesive for blown vinyl wallpaper. Make sure the wall surface is properly prepared, clean, and dry. Reapply adhesive and firmly press the wallpaper against the wall, removing any air bubbles.

Visible seams or gaps between wallpaper panels.

Ensure that the panels are correctly aligned and that the pattern match is accurate. Use a seam roller to flatten the seams and eliminate gaps. Apply a small amount of adhesive to any lifted edges.

Wallpaper bubbling after application.

Use a smoothing brush or roller to remove air bubbles. If bubbles persist, gently lift the wallpaper and reapply adhesive, smoothing again to eliminate bubbles.
