FAQs
Can I use permanent markers on this wallpaper?
It is strongly recommended to only use standard dry-erase markers. Permanent markers can stain the surface and may be very difficult or impossible to remove completely.
How often should I clean the surface?
For best performance and to avoid ghosting, it is recommended to wipe the surface clean regularly, ideally within 24 hours of writing.
What type of adhesive should I use?
Use a high-quality wallpaper adhesive suitable for vinyl-coated wallpapers. Always follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for application and drying times.
Can this wallpaper be applied over existing wallpaper?
It is generally best to remove old wallpaper and prepare a clean, smooth surface. Applying over existing wallpaper may lead to adhesion issues and an uneven finish.
What are the dimensions of the wallpaper roll?
Please refer to the product packaging or retailer's listing for specific roll dimensions, as this information is not available in the product description.
Is the brick design textured or flat?
The wallpaper features a 3D photographic brick design, meaning it creates the visual illusion of depth and texture but the surface itself is smooth and high-gloss.
Can I use this in a high-moisture area like a bathroom?
While it is wipeable, prolonged exposure to high moisture might affect adhesion and the integrity of the wallpaper over time. Ensure good ventilation if used in such areas.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper is difficult to write on or erase.
Ensure the surface is clean and smooth. Try using a different brand or type of dry-erase marker. Clean the surface thoroughly with a damp cloth and allow it to dry completely.
Air bubbles or wrinkles appeared during application.
Try to carefully lift the affected section and re-smooth it onto the wall using a wallpaper smoother or soft cloth, working from the center outwards. If the wallpaper is already set, small bubbles may dissipate over time, or you may need to gently prick them with a fine needle and smooth them down.
Ghosting or faint marks remain after erasing.
Clean the surface with a dedicated whiteboard cleaner or a solution of water and a small amount of isopropyl alcohol. For persistent marks, you may need to re-apply a fresh layer of wallpaper or use a specialized ghosting remover product.
The wallpaper is peeling at the edges.
Ensure the wall was properly prepared and the adhesive was applied evenly. Reapply adhesive to the peeling edges and press firmly back onto the wall. Use a primer on the wall before application if the surface is porous.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Sand down any imperfections and prime if necessary.
- Measure and cut the wallpaper to the desired size.
- Apply wallpaper adhesive evenly to the wall or the back of the paper, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
- Carefully align the wallpaper and smooth it onto the wall, working from the center outwards to remove air bubbles.
- Trim any excess material with a sharp blade.
Compatibility:
- Best applied to smooth, non-porous surfaces like painted drywall or plaster.
- Avoid application on heavily textured, dusty, or damp walls.
- Ensure compatibility with standard dry-erase markers; permanent markers are not recommended.
Care:
- To clean, use a damp cloth with water. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution may be used sparingly.
- Wipe clean dry-erase marker residue promptly after use to maintain the best writing surface.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads, which can damage the high gloss finish.
