4. Tools Required (Not Included)
- Measuring tape or ruler
- Utility knife or sharp scissors
- Smoothing tool or squeegee (a credit card can be used as an alternative)
- Clean cloth or sponge
- Pencil
5. Preparation
- Clean the Surface: Ensure the surface where the wallpaper will be applied is clean, dry, and smooth. Remove any dust, dirt, grease, or moisture. For freshly painted walls, allow at least 4 weeks for the paint to fully cure before application.
- Measure the Area: Measure the height and width of the surface you intend to cover. It is recommended to add an extra 1-2 inches to your measurements for trimming.
- Cut the Wallpaper: Unroll the wallpaper and use the grid lines on the backing paper to cut the desired length. Cut each strip slightly longer than needed to allow for pattern matching and trimming.
- Inspect the Product: Before applying, unroll and inspect the wallpaper for any defects or color variations. Contact support if any issues are found.
6. Installation (Setup)
Follow these steps for optimal application:
- Peel and Align: Begin by peeling off approximately 6-12 inches of the backing paper from the top edge of the wallpaper strip. Carefully align the exposed adhesive edge with the top of your desired surface.
- Apply and Smooth: Slowly and gradually peel off more of the backing paper with one hand while using your other hand and a smoothing tool (squeegee) to press the wallpaper onto the surface. Work from the center outwards to remove air bubbles.
- Pattern Matching (for multiple strips): If applying multiple strips, ensure to align the pattern carefully with the previous strip. Overlap slightly if necessary to maintain pattern continuity.
- Trim Excess: Once the entire strip is applied, use a utility knife and a straight edge to carefully trim any excess wallpaper along the edges, corners, or around outlets.
- Final Smoothing: After all strips are applied and trimmed, perform a final smoothing pass over the entire surface to ensure maximum adhesion and remove any remaining small bubbles.
7. Usage Tips
- For best results, apply to smooth, non-textured surfaces.
- When applying to corners, gently fold the wallpaper and press firmly to ensure adhesion.
- If a bubble appears, gently lift the wallpaper and re-apply, or use a pin to prick the bubble and smooth out the air.
- Consider ordering slightly more than needed to account for pattern matching and potential errors.
8. Maintenance
- Cleaning: The wallpaper is waterproof and easy to clean. Wipe gently with a damp cloth or sponge.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these may damage the surface or fade the pattern.
- Regular Dusting: Dust the surface regularly with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its appearance.
9. Removal
This wallpaper is designed for easy removal without damaging surfaces or leaving sticky residue.
- Locate a corner or edge of the wallpaper.
- Gently peel the wallpaper away from the surface at a slow, consistent angle.
- Continue peeling until the entire strip is removed. If resistance is met, try applying a small amount of heat with a hairdryer to soften the adhesive.
10. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Bubbles appear after application | Air trapped underneath the wallpaper | Gently lift the affected area and re-smooth, working from the center outwards. For small, stubborn bubbles, use a pin to prick and then smooth. |
| Wallpaper is not sticking well | Surface is not clean, dry, or smooth; surface is textured; paint is not fully cured | Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and dry. Avoid applying to heavily textured surfaces. Allow freshly painted walls to cure for at least 4 weeks. |
| Pattern does not align between strips | Incorrect alignment during initial application | Carefully peel back the misaligned strip and re-align, ensuring the pattern matches before pressing firmly. |
| Wallpaper peels off edges | Insufficient pressure during application; edge not fully adhered | Press down firmly on the edges with a smoothing tool. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before re-adhering. |
