FAQs
Is this wallpaper suitable for a child's room?
Yes, the enchanting and imaginative design makes it a wonderful choice for a child's room, creating a whimsical and stimulating environment. Its spongeable nature also helps with minor cleanups.
How do I measure how much wallpaper I need?
Measure the height and width of your wall. Multiply the width by the height to get the square meterage. Divide this by the coverage per roll (5.3m²) and round up to the nearest whole number to determine the number of rolls needed, accounting for pattern repeat and wastage.
Can I hang this wallpaper over existing wallpaper?
It is generally recommended to remove old wallpaper first for the best adhesion and finish. If you choose to hang over existing wallpaper, ensure it is firmly adhered, smooth, and not peeling. An appropriate primer might be necessary.
What type of paste should I use?
Use a high-quality, pre-mixed or powdered wallpaper adhesive specifically designed for paper-based wallpapers. Follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for mixing and application.
How durable is the 'spongeable' feature?
The 'spongeable' feature means light marks can be gently wiped away with a damp cloth. It does not make the wallpaper waterproof or resistant to heavy stains or scrubbing.
What are the dimensions of a single roll?
A single roll measures 10 meters in length and 0.53 meters in width.
What is the main color of the wallpaper?
The primary color family is Gold, though the design incorporates multiple colors within its fantastical jungle theme.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or creases appear after hanging.
Gently lift the affected section of wallpaper while the paste is still wet and smooth it out towards the edges. If the paste has dried, a pinprick can be used to release trapped air, followed by gentle pressure.
Pattern does not align correctly.
Carefully adjust the positioning of the new strip before the paste sets. Ensure you are working from a plumb line. Slight adjustments are possible if the paste is still moist.
Wallpaper is difficult to cut cleanly.
Use a sharp, fresh blade in your utility knife. Make cuts carefully along a straight edge, such as a plasterer's trowel or ruler.
Color variation between rolls.
Ensure all rolls used for a project come from the same batch number. If color variation is noticed, contact the retailer immediately before applying.
