FAQs

Can I reuse the paper after it is cut?

Once a section of the paper has been stepped on or damaged, it is best practice to trim it off to maintain a seamless look for future sessions.

Does this include the stand for the background?

No, the Colorama background paper roll must be used with a compatible background support system, which is sold separately.

How should I store these rolls?

It is essential to store rolls vertically to maintain the integrity of the cardboard core and prevent the paper from sagging or developing permanent bends.

Is this paper waterproof?

No, this is premium paper and is susceptible to moisture damage. Avoid using in damp environments or with liquids.

Are these papers colorfast?

Yes, Colorama papers are produced with light-fast dyes to ensure consistent color rendition under various lighting conditions.

Troubleshooting

Paper sagging or uneven unrolling

Ensure the support bar is perfectly level and that the roll is fully seated on the mounting system.

Visible wrinkles or creases

Verify that the paper is being stored vertically. If wrinkles persist, ensure there is enough tension on the roll when pulling the paper down.

Difficulty unrolling the paper

Check that the core is not obstructed and that your background stand system allows for free rotation of the roll.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Crease-free surface for seamless backgrounds
  • Non-reflective matte finish
  • Highly durable and resists sagging
  • Environmentally friendly and recyclable
  • Excellent color consistency

Cons

  • Requires a separate support system for mounting
  • Paper can be damaged by water or moisture
  • Once cut, the used section cannot be reused as a clean background
  • Requires vertical storage to prevent core bending

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Colorama backdrop, slide the cardboard core onto a standard background support bar or a dedicated backdrop stand system. Ensure the roll is tensioned correctly to prevent excess paper from unspooling. For long-term maintenance, always store the rolls vertically to prevent the core from warping over time; the use of a 'Colorgrip' (LL COPAPERGRIP) is recommended for stable vertical storage. If the edge of the paper becomes scuffed or torn during a shoot, simply trim the damaged section with a sharp utility knife to reveal a fresh, clean length of paper.
