How to hang FACTURA wallpapers?
FACTURA wallpapers are easy to hang! FACTURA wallpapering instructions All you need is to buy the necessary tools and follow our instructions.
Tools needed:
- Press roller
- Glue for non-woven wallpaper
- Cutter knife
- Disposable towels
- Measure tape
- Wallpaper spatula
- Paint tray
Wallpapering instructions::
- Check a layout and read an instruction. Compare layout dimensions (width, height) with finished wallpapers dimensions. Everything should match.
- Smooth, even and clean wall should be coated with primer 2 days before wallpapering. Use a high-quality primer for wallpapers (not a concentrate).
- Mark out a wall.
- Prepare a paste. We recommend to use high quality glue for non-woven wallpapers (SEMIN, QUELYD). Glue must be mixed with water according to instructions.
- Apply an even layer of a paste only on a wall.
- Dry wallpaper sheet is applied to a wall according to marks. Smooth out wallpapers with a disposable rubber roller only. Then apply the second piece of wallpapers and match a pattern.
- Wallpaper seam should be smoothed with a plastic roller. Press down a wallpaper seam by a wet towel and go over it with a plastic roller, as shown in the video, to remove paste from a seam.
- Turn off the light and illuminate a wall on one side only. This will help to check any remaining bubbles.
- Remove bubbles with a disposable rubber roller, wiping bubbles off to an edge.
- Leave a wall to dry and check it the next day.
Notes:
- Double priming of walls is necessary because dry bulky materials are used, which are very weak for wallpapers to fix on. Coating is diluting when it interacts with a paste. This mixture comes out through wallpapers seams. Properly primed walls have secured coating and wallpapers quickly adheres with a paste and a wall.
- We recommend to use a ready-made paste which is based on PVA. It is applied with a thin layer so there will be a minimum amount of excess paste coming through seams.
- When working with FACTURA wallpapers, paste only a wall because wallpapers material is non-woven.
- A rubber roller can absorb wallpapers ink. Therefore only a disposable rubber roller should be used.
