FAQs

What is an offset match?

An offset match (also known as a drop match or half drop) means that the pattern on the wallpaper repeats across the width, and the second length has to be dropped by the distance indicated to match the design. This can be found on the wallpaper label.

How do I apply the wallpaper?

This wallpaper uses the Paste-the-Wall method. Apply the paste directly to the wall, then apply the wallpaper strips.

Can I use this wallpaper in a bathroom?

While the wallpaper is spongeable, it is not specifically designed for high-moisture environments. Ensure good ventilation to prevent any issues.

How do I calculate how much wallpaper I need?

Measure the height and width of the walls to be covered. Consult a wallpaper calculator or contact a professional for precise measurements, considering the pattern repeat and offset match.

How do I remove the wallpaper?

The wallpaper is fully strippable. Gently lift a corner and pull the wallpaper down. If it doesn't come off easily, try using a wallpaper scorer or steamer to help loosen the adhesive.

What kind of paste should I use?

Use a wallpaper paste suitable for non-woven wallpapers.

Troubleshooting

Visible seams or misaligned pattern.

Double-check the offset match and ensure each strip is aligned correctly. Re-apply the wallpaper to the wall if necessary.

Wallpaper not sticking to the wall.

Make sure you are using the correct type of wallpaper paste suitable for 'Paste the Wall' application. Ensure the wall is clean and properly prepared. Apply extra paste if needed.

Bubbles under the wallpaper.

Use a smoothing tool to push out any air bubbles from the center to the edges of the wallpaper. If the bubbles persist, carefully lift the wallpaper and re-apply.
