FAQs
Is this wallpaper suitable for bathrooms?
While the vinyl is durable and washable, it is not recommended for high-humidity areas like bathrooms or areas with direct water contact.
How many rolls do I need?
Measure the total width and height of your walls, then divide by the dimensions of a single roll (53cm x 10.05m), accounting for roughly 10-15% extra for pattern matching and trim waste.
Can I paint over this wallpaper?
This wallpaper is designed for its aesthetic finish; it is not recommended to paint over it.
Is it difficult to remove?
No, it is designed to be strippable, which allows for easier removal compared to traditional permanent wallpapers.
Does the purple color fade in sunlight?
This product features good light fastness, meaning it is resistant to fading under normal lighting conditions.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper edges lifting
Apply a small amount of wallpaper seam adhesive under the edge and press firmly with a seam roller.
Air bubbles during installation
Gently smooth the bubble toward the nearest edge using a clean, dry wallpaper smoothing tool.
Pattern alignment mismatch
Ensure the first strip is hung perfectly plumb; use a spirit level to verify your vertical starting line.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure your walls are clean, dry, and smooth before beginning. Because this is a 'paste-the-wall' product, apply your wallpaper adhesive evenly to the wall surface and position the wallpaper dry. Each roll measures 53cm wide by 10.05m long; always check your wall dimensions to ensure you have enough coverage for the pattern repeat. To maintain the wallpaper, use a soft sponge or cloth with mild, soapy water for spot cleaning. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads that could mar the shimmering finish.
