FAQs

What does 'free pattern match' mean?

A free pattern match means that you do not need to align the pattern between adjacent strips of wallpaper. You can hang each strip as it comes, which simplifies the application process and can reduce waste.

Can I use this wallpaper in a bathroom?

This wallpaper is generally not recommended for high-moisture areas like bathrooms unless it is well-ventilated and the wallpaper is sealed with a suitable wallpaper varnish or protector designed for such applications. For standard bathrooms, consider moisture-resistant alternatives.

How much wallpaper do I need?

Measure the width and height of your walls and calculate the total square footage. It is recommended to purchase slightly more than calculated (typically 10-15% extra) to account for trimming, pattern matching (even with free match, some adjustments may be needed), and future repairs.

What kind of adhesive should I use?

Use a high-quality wallpaper adhesive suitable for the type of wallpaper and your wall surface. Always follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for mixing and application.

How do I clean the wallpaper?

Dust regularly with a dry cloth. For light marks, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Is this wallpaper peelable for removal?

Most wallpapers designed for interior walls are strippable, meaning they can be removed in full or partial sheets when dry. However, always test a small, inconspicuous area first or consult the product's specific removal instructions if available.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles or wrinkles appear after application.

Gently lift the affected edge of the wallpaper and re-smooth it using a wallpaper brush or roller, working from the center outwards. Ensure the adhesive was applied evenly.

Wallpaper is not sticking to the wall.

Check that the wall surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, primed). Ensure sufficient adhesive was used and applied evenly. Allow the adhesive to become tacky as per manufacturer instructions before application.

Seams are visible or not aligning perfectly.

Although this is a free pattern match, ensure panels are hung edge-to-edge without overlapping or gaps. If a slight misalignment occurs, carefully trim the edge of one panel to create a tighter seam.

Difficulty cutting the wallpaper cleanly.

Use a very sharp utility knife or a specialized wallpaper trimming knife. Change the blade frequently for clean cuts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure walls are clean, dry, and free from imperfections. Fill any cracks or holes and sand smooth.
  2. Apply a suitable wallpaper primer to the walls for optimal adhesion and future removal.
  3. Cut wallpaper panels to the required length, allowing for a slight overlap at the ceiling and skirting.
  4. Apply wallpaper adhesive evenly to the back of the paper or directly to the wall, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
  5. Hang the first panel, ensuring it is plumb using a spirit level. Subsequent panels should be hung edge-to-edge.
  6. Gently smooth the wallpaper with a brush or roller, working from the center outwards to remove air bubbles.
  7. Trim excess wallpaper at the ceiling and skirting using a sharp knife.

Compatibility:

This wallpaper is suitable for most interior walls, including living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and dining areas. It is not recommended for high-moisture environments such as bathrooms or kitchens unless adequately protected with a suitable sealant and ventilation.

Care:

  • Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth or a feather duster.
  • For minor marks, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid rubbing.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the texture and color.
