Handy installation tips

Tips Vinyl Wallpaper Installation

• Using a primer to prime the walls before installation is an absolute must!
• Use ONLY the recommended products for primer and adhesive.
• The panels are 130cm wide and can be heavy. Having a second person to hold one end up while you position the panels is very important.
• Do not press too hard when smoothing out the air bubbles. Use light force as we don’t want glue seeping out the edges.
• Ventilation assists in the fastness of the adhesive drying time. When installing the first panel, if you are too quick or the room doesn’t have much ventilation then the panel can slip a bit. If this is happening you just need to hold it into position and let the glue harden for a while so it stays in place. This is most important with the ‘overlap, double cut’ method. You want the adhesive to be almost dry so the panel doesn’t move when cutting.
• Use a thin blade when double cutting the wallpaper. The thickness of the blade can determine whether the seams are visible or not.
