SURFACE PREPARATION
-Thorough preparation of the surface is essential when installing Lincrusta. Remove old paper, wash down, fill all imperfections and allow to dry. -For POROUS surfaces, rub down before applying a coat of size (diluted regular wallpaper adhesive). - For NON-POROUS surfaces (eg. solvent painted walls), cross-line to give perfect adhesion. Apply lining paper using a ready-mixed adhesive containing a fungicide.
STORING & HANDLING LINCRUSTA
Store Lincrusta at room temperature before installation. When handling, care should be taken to avoid surface damage. Lincrusta becomes more pliable after soaking and pasting. Lincrusta is made from materials that once mixed, start a natural curing process. If stored correctly at an ambient temperature, Lincrusta has a shelf life of 18 months to 2 years from the production date. Please make sure that you bear this in mind when planning your project and only purchase Lincrusta when it is required.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR WALLCOVERINGS
GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Plan your start and finish points in the room to minimise wastage, and mark a vertical plumb line to which to hang your first length.
- Match the pattern where necessary. Cut individual lengths to size adding 50mm (2”) at the top and bottom for trimming.
- Cut to the left and right trim position using a sharp knife and straight edge, taking care to avoid edge damage. Refer to Trim and Repeat Information Table for details of recommended trim position for individual designs.
- Wet the back of the paper with warm water using a sponge. For best results place lengths back to back and leave for approximately 5–8 minutes.
- Remove any excess water using a sponge or cloth.
- Apply Lincrusta Adhesive to the back of the Lincrusta using a 50–75mm (2–3”) synthetic bristle paint brush.
- Apply length to the surface and smooth down using a 178mm (7”) felt smoothing roller, working from themiddle to the outer edges expelling all air bubbles.
-To form lower edge, mark Lincrusta at each side with a pencil, level with top of skirting or dado. Place cutting board behind Lincrusta leaning against wall, and cut between pencil marks using a sharp knife and straight edge. Repeat at top.
INTERNAL CORNERS
Cut to fit into the corner. Hang the remaining off-cut to a plumb line on the adjacent wall, trimming to fit in corner. Trim any areas of high relief in the corner at 45° angle to fit.
EXTERNAL CORNERS
For gently rounded corners, Lincrusta can be smoothed round in one piece. Where the angle is sharp, cut the Lincrusta to finish flush at the corner. Hang the remaining off-cut to a plumb line on adjacent wall, equal to the minimum width of off-cut. Fill any gaps at the external corner using linseed putty.
