Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Preparation: Ensure the walls are clean, dry, and smooth. Remove any old wallpaper and repair any imperfections.
- Tools Needed: You'll need wallpaper paste (suitable for 'paste the paper' application), a smoothing brush or roller, a measuring tape, a level, a sharp knife or trimming tool, and a seam roller.
- Application: Apply the paste directly to the back of the wallpaper, following the manufacturer's instructions on the paste. Allow the paper to soak for the recommended time, then carefully apply it to the wall, aligning the pattern.
- Pattern Matching: The wallpaper has a straight pattern match; align the edges of each strip horizontally. Overlap the edges slightly and then trim for a seamless join.
- Smoothing: Use a smoothing brush or roller to remove any air bubbles and ensure the wallpaper adheres to the wall. Wipe away any excess paste.
- Cutting: Trim the top and bottom edges with a sharp knife or trimming tool, using a straight edge for precision.
- Cleaning: Clean the wallpaper with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Compatibility: This wallpaper is compatible with most standard wall surfaces, provided they are properly prepared.
Care: To maintain the wallpaper's appearance, clean it regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid rubbing the surface aggressively. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse with water.
