FAQs
Is this background paper reusable?
It is designed as a disposable background. When the used portion becomes dirty or damaged, you can simply cut it off and pull down more fresh paper.
What width is the LL CO114?
This specific roll is 2.72 meters wide.
Can I use this for video work?
Yes, its non-reflective, matte surface makes it excellent for video production and studio broadcasts.
Does the roll come with a stand?
No, the background is the paper roll only. A separate support system is required for installation.
How should I store the paper when not in use?
Store the rolls vertically in a dry environment, ideally using a Colorgrip to prevent sagging.
Is the paper acid-free?
Colorama papers are made with high-quality materials designed for studio use, though they are primarily intended as a consumable backdrop.
Troubleshooting
Paper sagging in the middle
Ensure the background is mounted on a sufficiently rigid crossbar and store the roll vertically when not in use.
Surface glare in photographs
Adjust your lighting angles to avoid direct reflection on the matte surface or increase the distance between the subject and the lights.
Difficulty unrolling smoothly
Check that the roll is properly seated on the support brackets and that there is no tension or obstruction at the ends of the core.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper installation is essential for getting the most out of your Colorama background. Always mount the roll on a standard studio support stand or wall-mounted roller system to ensure it hangs straight and does not buckle. When not in use, it is highly recommended to store the rolls vertically using an accessory like the Colorgrip to prevent the weight of the roll from causing the center to dip over time.
To clean minor scuffs, use a dry, soft brush to remove dust. If the paper becomes wet or badly torn, the damaged section should be cut off using a sharp utility knife to maintain a clean edge for future use. Ensure your studio floor is clean before unrolling the paper to prolong its lifespan.
