INSPECT THE ROLL

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

PREPARATION

-Walls should be clean, dry and even. -Remove any old wallpaper and loose paint. -Roughen painted surfaces withsandpaper. -Scrape powdery, flaky surfaces. Absorbent surfaces should be prepared with an oil based primer ensuring it dries completely. -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 that the walls are cross lined using a good quality lining paper. Sizing the lining paper will aid adhesion. Lining should be allowed to dry completely before hanging the wallcovering. -Dark coloured wallcoverings may need their edges coloured with a crayon of a similar tone to avoid white edges showing.

PASTE AND HANGING

This is a 'paste the wall’ product. The decorator should paste the wall and not the back of the wallcovering.

-A good quality, solvent-free, fungicide protected, heavy grade adhesive should be used. Do not use self-mix adhesives. All purpose pastes are not suitable.  -Paste should be evenly applied to the wall tohang 1length at a time, to an area slightly wider than the width of the roll. -Buttjoinsanduseadecorator's brushtosmooth down thewall covering, working from the centre to the edges to express air bubbles.
