Hanging Instructions

We recommend using a good quality, PH-neutral, solvent-free, fungicide-protected, light-grade adhesive (such as Albany Super Smooth, Cole & Son, Solvite Paste The Wall). Do not use self-mix adhesives. All purpose and heavy-duty paste are not suitable.

1. Inspect Each Roll

Before cutting and hanging this wallpaper, ensure that all rolls have the same batch reference, are in good condition, have no shade variation and that no other faults are present. Please ensure that there are enough rolls to complete the job. Do not assume that the wallpaper will come off the roll the correct way up. Always refer to the pattern book or check with the retailer. Examination before hanging is the buyer’s responsibility. No claim can be accepted for hanging incorrect wallpapers or after wallpapers have been cut and hung showing defects which were apparent at the time of hanging. In the event of any complaint, please quote the design reference and batch number on this label.

2. Preparation

Walls should be clean, dry and even. Remove any old wallpaper and loose paint and scrape off powdery, flaky surfaces. Roughen painted surfaces with sandpaper. Absorbent surfaces should be prepared with an oil-based primer ensuring it dries completely before continuing. New plaster should be allowed to dry out completely. Metallic effects can be damaged if high levels of alkaline are already present in the walls. Preparing the walls with an alkaline-resistant primer should prevent any damage of this type. For best results, we recommend walls are cross-lined using good quality lining paper. Sizing the lining paper will aid adhesion. The lining should be allowed to dry completely before hanging the wallpaper. Dark coloured papers may need their edges coloured with a crayon of a similar tone to avoid white edges showing.

3a. Pasting Woven Papers – 'Paste The Paper' (please check which type of paper you have before beginning )

We recommend using a good quality, PH-neutral, solvent-free, fungicide-protected, light-grade adhesive (such as Albany Super Smooth, Cole & Son). All purpose and heavy-duty paste are not suitable. Do not use self-mix adhesives. Apply an even coat of paste to the wallpaper, ensuring the edges are fully pasted. Do not allow paste to come into contact with the surface. Allow sufficient time for the paper to become supple (5-8 minutes). Care should be taken not to crease the paper when folding.

3b. Pasting Non-Woven Papers – 'Paste The Wall Products' (please check which type of paper you have before beginning )

This is a ‘paste the wall product’. The decorator should paste the wall and not the back of the wallcovering. We recommend using a good quality, PH-neutral, solvent-free, fungicide-protected, light-grade adhesive (such as Solvite Paste The Wall Adhesive). All purpose and heavy-duty paste are not suitable. Do not use self-mix adhesives. Paste should be evenly applied to the wall to hang one length at a time, to an area slightly wider than the width of the roll.

4. Hanging
Butt joins and use a decorator’s brush to smooth down the wallcovering, working from the centre to the edges to express air bubbles. NB. If this is a flocked wallcovering, use only a clean, soft roller, NOT a decorator’s brush. Avoid squeezing paste out of joins and ensure paste does not get onto the brush or roller. No paste should be allowed to come into contact with the surface of the paper and hands should be kept clean and dry whilst handling the wallcovering, 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 off whilst moist, using a clean, damp sponge. Trim the top and bottom with a sharp knife or scissors. Ensure wallpaper is firmly adhered as, in the event of a fire, loose wallpaper can contribute to the hazard. After hanging 2 or 3 lengths, inspect the result to ensure that no shading or other faults are present. No claim for hanging costs can be accepted once more than one roll has been hung.
