This Metropolitan Stories Wallpaper is designed for homeowners and decorators seeking to enhance interior walls with a decorative, stylish, and atmospheric covering. Its key benefit is the ability to transform spaces with a unique faux plaster effect, adding personality and aesthetic appeal. A caveat to note is that this design is a free pattern match, which may affect installation planning. The wallpaper offers a versatile and functional solution for updating homes and offices, available in a variety of colors and textures, including this Raspberry colorway.

A free pattern match means that the pattern on each subsequent strip of wallpaper does not need to be aligned with the pattern on the previous strip. This can simplify installation but requires careful cutting and application to ensure a visually continuous surface.
While it can be used in bathrooms, it is not recommended for areas with high humidity or direct water contact without proper sealing, as moisture can affect the adhesive and the paper itself.
Walls should be clean, dry, smooth, and free from grease or old wallpaper. Fill any holes, sand down rough patches, and consider priming the wall for optimal adhesion and easier removal in the future.
Gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water, which can damage the surface.
The durability depends on proper application and environmental conditions. The faux plaster effect provides a textured finish that can mask minor imperfections, but it should be treated with care to avoid scuffs or tears.
Generally, wallpaper can be removed, especially if the wall was properly prepared and primed beforehand. Most modern wallpapers are strippable, meaning they can be peeled off in large sections.
Gently lift the affected area and reapply adhesive, smoothing out the air bubbles towards the edge. Ensure no adhesive was missed during initial application.
Check that sufficient adhesive was applied to the edges. Use a seam roller gently to press the edges together. If separation persists, a small amount of seam adhesive may be needed.
Handle the wallpaper carefully, especially when wet. If a small tear occurs, it may be repairable with a small amount of adhesive and careful smoothing, or the section may need to be replaced.
Always ensure you have purchased enough rolls from the same batch to complete your project. If color variation is noticed, contact customer service immediately.
Setup: Ensure walls are clean, dry, and smooth before application. Prime walls if necessary, especially if they are porous. Cut wallpaper to size, allowing for a slight overlap at the ceiling and baseboard. Apply wallpaper adhesive evenly to the wall or the back of the paper, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions. Carefully align and smooth the paper onto the wall, working out any air bubbles with a wallpaper brush or smoother.
Compatibility: This wallpaper is suitable for most interior walls that are properly prepared. It is compatible with standard wallpaper adhesives. It is not recommended for use in high-humidity areas such as bathrooms or kitchens without an appropriate sealant, as moisture can affect adhesion and material integrity.
Care: To clean, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as this can damage the wallpaper's surface and finish. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution may be used sparingly, followed by a wipe with a clean, damp cloth.
