FAQs
What is the pattern repeat for Clarke & Clarke Fragment wallpaper?
The pattern repeat information is usually found on the wallpaper roll or product packaging. For precise details, consult the manufacturer's specifications or contact customer support.
Can this wallpaper be used in a kitchen?
While non-woven wallpapers are generally more breathable, this specific design with metallic elements is best suited for living areas and bedrooms. For kitchens, consider a wallpaper specifically designed for high-traffic, potentially humid environments.
How do I prepare my walls for this wallpaper?
Walls should be clean, dry, smooth, and free from dust or grease. Fill any holes or cracks and sand them smooth. A wallpaper primer is often recommended for best adhesion and future removal.
What is the best way to remove this wallpaper later?
Non-woven wallpapers are generally strippable. In most cases, they can be peeled off the wall dry, starting from a corner. If adhesive residue remains, use a wallpaper remover solution.
Does the metallic stripe fade over time?
The metallic print is designed for durability, but prolonged direct sunlight can cause fading in any wallpaper. It's advisable to minimize direct, intense sunlight exposure on the wallpapered area.
Is this wallpaper washable?
This wallpaper is generally wipeable with a damp cloth for light cleaning. It is not considered fully washable, especially due to the metallic accents, so avoid excessive moisture or scrubbing.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or creases after hanging
Gently lift the wallpaper section while the adhesive is still wet and smooth out the bubble or crease using a wallpaper brush or a clean, damp cloth, working from the center outwards.
Pattern not aligning correctly
Ensure you are accounting for the pattern repeat specified by the manufacturer. Slightly adjust the position of the wallpaper panel before the adhesive sets. For severe misalignment, you may need to re-cut and re-hang the section.
Metallic print appears dull or damaged
Avoid using water or cleaning solutions directly on the metallic print. If cleaning is necessary, use a very lightly dampened cloth and wipe gently. Do not rub.
Wallpaper is difficult to reposition
Ensure you are using the correct type of wallpaper adhesive for non-woven materials and that it has been applied evenly to the wall. Allow the adhesive a brief 'booking' time as per manufacturer instructions if recommended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: As this is a non-woven wallpaper, it typically uses a paste-the-wall application method. Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Measure and cut your wallpaper sections carefully, allowing for pattern repeat. Apply wallpaper adhesive evenly to the wall, not the paper itself, for easier handling and repositioning.
Compatibility: Suitable for interior walls in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and dining areas. Avoid high-moisture environments like bathrooms unless specifically rated for such use.
Care: Due to the metallic elements and printed surface, gentle cleaning is recommended. Use a clean, damp (not wet) cloth to wipe away light marks. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, which could damage the metallic finish or printed design.
