FAQs
What type of paste should I use for this wallpaper?
This is a non-woven wallpaper, so it requires a paste specifically designed for non-woven or paste-the-wall applications. Always check the wallpaper paste manufacturer's recommendations.
Can I hang this wallpaper in a bathroom?
While possible, this uncoated non-woven wallpaper is best suited for dry interior spaces. High humidity can affect its adhesion and appearance over time. Consider a vinyl or washable wallpaper for high-moisture areas.
How do I clean the wallpaper?
Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, as the paper is uncoated and can be sensitive.
What does 'uncoated non-woven paper' mean for its texture?
It means the wallpaper has a natural, matte finish with a subtle texture that provides a tactile feel and a soft appearance, unlike glossy or vinyl-coated papers.
How do I handle pattern matching with the wave design?
Align the continuous wave pattern from one panel to the next. Ensure the peaks and troughs of the waves match precisely across seams for a seamless look.
Is this wallpaper washable?
No, as it is an uncoated non-woven paper, it is not considered washable. It can be gently wiped with a damp cloth but should not be scrubbed or exposed to excessive moisture.
What is the recommended method for hanging this wallpaper?
This non-woven wallpaper is designed for the 'paste-the-wall' method, which simplifies the hanging process.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper is not sticking to the wall
Ensure the wall surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, primed). Check that the correct type of wallpaper paste for non-woven paper has been used and applied generously to the wall.
Pattern does not align correctly
Carefully adjust the panel slightly before the paste sets. Ensure the first panel was hung perfectly vertical. Take extra time to align the wave motif accurately with the previous panel.
Air bubbles or wrinkles appear
Use a wallpaper brush or smoother to push air bubbles towards the edges of the panel as you hang it. If bubbles persist after drying, try gently piercing them with a pin and smoothing down.
Color variation between rolls
Ensure all wallpaper rolls used for the project are from the same batch number. Contact customer support if significant color discrepancies are observed between rolls of the same batch.
