Extended Product Information

FAQs

How much wallpaper can one bottle cover?

Since you use one-quarter of the bottle for 4.5 litres, a full bottle is enough for approximately 18 litres of solution, which covers a significant amount of standard wall area depending on the paper's absorbency.

Can I use this on painted walls?

This product is formulated specifically for wallpaper. While it is generally safe, avoid leaving it on painted surfaces for extended periods.

Do I need a steamer as well?

In most cases, the chemical action of the stripper is sufficient. A steamer is generally not required unless the adhesive is extremely old or stubborn.

How do I know if I need to score the wall?

If the paper has a plastic-like, washable, or vinyl coating, the solution will bead off. If water beads on the surface, you must score it.

Is the solution safe for internal use?

Yes, it is designed for interior use, but ensure the room is well-ventilated during the application process.

Should I use hot or cold water?

The product instructions specify using warm water, which helps the active ingredients penetrate the wallpaper paste more effectively.

Troubleshooting

The wallpaper is not coming off easily.

The solution may not have penetrated deep enough. Re-apply the mixture, wait an additional 10 minutes, and ensure the surface was sufficiently saturated.

The solution is rolling off the wall.

Use a brush to work the solution into the texture of the paper, or ensure you are using a sponge to apply a thicker, more consistent coat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation

  1. Dilute one-quarter of the 500mL bottle into 4.5 litres of warm water.
