This Rasch Wallpaper (MPN 484458) is designed for homeowners seeking to add warmth and sophisticated patterns to their living spaces, particularly living rooms, bedrooms, or dining rooms. Its key benefit is the ease and speed of application due to its 'paste-the-wall' feature, eliminating soaking time. A potential caveat is that the vibrant 'Geometric' pattern and 'Red' colour family might not suit minimalist decor styles.

The primary advantage is speed and convenience. You apply the adhesive directly to the wall, eliminating the need to book (soak) the wallpaper, which significantly reduces the time taken for application.
Each roll is 53cm wide and 1005cm long. You'll need to measure the width and height of your walls and calculate how many strips are needed, accounting for pattern repeat. Online wallpaper calculators can assist with this, or consult with a professional.
While the wallpaper is durable, it is not specifically designed for high-moisture environments like bathrooms. Use in such areas may reduce its lifespan. Ensure good ventilation and consider a protective sealant if applying in a moderately humid area.
The design features a warm colour palette including red-orange, Bordeaux violet, grass green, and turquoise blue, presented in horizontal striped blocks.
Generally, paste-the-wall wallpapers can be stripped easily. Start at a seam and pull downwards. If it proves difficult, steam removal methods or a wallpaper remover solution might be necessary.
While possible, it is not recommended as it may obscure the pattern details and affect the texture. If repainting, use a good quality emulsion paint and test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
You will need wallpaper adhesive suitable for paste-the-wall application, a pasting brush or roller, a sharp utility knife or trimmer, a straight edge, a spirit level, a wallpaper brush or smoother, and a seam roller (optional).
Gently lift the edge of the wallpaper strip and re-smooth with a wallpaper brush or smoother, ensuring the adhesive is evenly applied to the wall and paper. Work from the center outwards to push out air.
Ensure each strip is hung perfectly vertical using a spirit level. Adjust the position of the strip before the adhesive begins to set. For subsequent strips, carefully align the pattern repeat before smoothing.
Check that the correct type of wallpaper adhesive for paste-the-wall products has been used and applied generously and evenly to the wall. Ensure the wall surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and primed if necessary).
Use a sharp, high-quality utility knife or wallpaper trimmer and a straight edge for clean cuts. Change the blade frequently for best results.
Setup: This wallpaper utilizes a 'paste-the-wall' application. Apply wallpaper adhesive directly to the wall surface where the paper will be hung. Unroll the wallpaper and cut strips to the required length, allowing for a slight overlap at the ceiling and skirting board. Hang the strips vertically, ensuring they are straight and pattern-matched. Smooth out any air bubbles with a wallpaper brush or smoother, working from the center outwards.
Compatibility: Suitable for most standard interior wall surfaces, provided they are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Ensure walls are properly prepared with a suitable primer if necessary, especially on new plaster or previously painted surfaces.
Care: To clean, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as this can damage the wallpaper. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Ensure the area dries thoroughly.
