FAQs

How much adhesive do I need?

The amount needed will depend on the surface area and the type of wallpaper. Consult the product packaging for specific coverage information.

Can I use this adhesive on painted walls?

Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.

How should I store the adhesive sachets?

Store the sachets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.

What is the shelf life of the adhesive?

Check the packaging for the expiry date. Unopened sachets should remain effective until the expiry date if stored correctly.

Troubleshooting

Wallpaper is not sticking to the wall.

Ensure the wall is properly prepared (clean, dry, and smooth). Check the adhesive mixture for proper consistency and apply more adhesive if necessary.

Air bubbles are trapped under the wallpaper.

Use a smoothing tool to gently push the air bubbles towards the edges of the wallpaper.

Adhesive is too thick.

Add a small amount of water and mix thoroughly until the desired consistency is achieved.

Adhesive is lumpy after mixing.

Ensure the mixture is constantly stirred while adding the powder to the water. Discard the batch and mix a new batch.
