Product Information
Full details
The Phelan Texture Wallpaper in Beige is designed for homeowners looking to add a modern, industrial aesthetic to their living spaces. Its key benefit is creating an on-trend, sophisticated look with a tactile, layered stone effect and subtle metallic highlights. A potential caveat is that the textured finish, while good for imperfections, may require more careful cleaning than smooth wallpapers.

FAQs
What is the 'paste the paper' application method?
This traditional method involves applying wallpaper adhesive directly to the back of the wallpaper strip before hanging it on the wall. Allow the paste to soak in for a few minutes as per the adhesive instructions.
How do I clean this wallpaper?
The wallpaper is washable. You can gently wipe it with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft sponge, then rinse with a clean damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water.
Can this wallpaper be used in a bathroom or kitchen?
While it is washable and has good lightfastness, it is not specifically rated as a kitchen or bathroom wallpaper. For high-moisture areas, consider wallpapers designed with higher resistance to humidity and steam.
What are the dimensions of one roll?
Each roll measures approximately 10.05 meters (32.9 feet) in length and 53 centimeters (21 inches) in width.
Does the metallic accent mean it will reflect a lot of light?
The metallic accents are subtle and designed to add a touch of luxury and depth, not to create a highly reflective surface. They catch the light gently.
How much coverage can I expect from one roll?
One standard roll covers approximately 5.3 square meters (57 square feet), assuming a standard pattern repeat and minimal waste. Always calculate based on your room's dimensions and pattern repeat.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or Lumps Under Wallpaper
Carefully lift the affected area and reapply adhesive, ensuring even coverage. Smooth out from the center towards the edges.
Difficulty Matching Pattern
Ensure strips are hung vertically and that you are referencing the correct edge of the previous strip for pattern alignment. Take your time and step back to check the overall look.
Wallpaper Not Sticking Properly
Check that the correct type of adhesive for blown vinyl wallpaper has been used and applied evenly. Ensure the paper has been allowed to 'paste soak' for the recommended time.
Visible Seams
Ensure edges are trimmed cleanly. Use a seam roller very gently if necessary, or check adhesive coverage along the edges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

- Apply wallpaper adhesive evenly to the back of the wallpaper strip (paste-the-paper method).
- Allow the adhesive to soak according to the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
- Hang the first strip, ensuring it is level, and smooth it onto the wall.
