Instructions & Care

Please read these instructions carefully before hanging your wallpaper or mural. It is advisable that a professional decorator is used.

PREPARATION

• Remove any old wallpaper and loose paint.
• Walls should be dry, clean and even.
• Walls should have at least one coat of primer on them before applying the wallpaper, to ensure a strong adhesion.
• Roughen painted surfaces with sandpaper before applying the adhesive.

PASTING AND HANGING

• Please ALWAYS lay out the wallpaper on the floor first before you hang it to make sure the panels all line up and match perfectly.
• Please ALWAYS start the hanging from left to right hanging first PANEL A, B, C and so on (like reading a book)
• This is a paste the wall product. The decorator should paste the wall and not the back of the wallpaper.
• A good quality, solvent free, fungicide protected ready-mixed ‘tub’ adhesive – specifically for paste the wall non-woven papers should be used.
• Paste should be evenly applied to the wall to hang one length at a time, to an area slightly wider than width of the paper.
• Butt joints and use a decorators brush to smooth down the wall covering, working from the center to the edges to express air bubbles.
• Avoid squeezing paste out of the joints and ensure paste does not get onto the brush or roller.
• No paste should be allowed to come into contact with the surface and hands should be kept clean and dry whilst hanging the wall covering.
• Paste will damage the surface. We cannot accept responsibility for marks or damage caused by paste.
• Should any paste have been allowed to come into contact with the surface, it should be lightly sponged whilst still moist, using a clean damp sponge.

CARING FOR YOUR WALLPAPER

The wallpaper should be cleaned by dusting with a clean dry brush or by brush accessory on a vacuum cleaner.
