While every precaution is taken to ensure that this product reaches you in perfect condition it is your
responsibility to check it is free from defect before & during hanging.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for costs incurred due to incorrect hanging technique, or hanging
defective wallpaper, if by preliminary inspection the defect would have been found.
We recommend completing the Starting Checklist, then after hanging 2-3 lengths check again before continuing. To
resolve complaints, samples & labels must be returned. This does not aect your statutory rights.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Let the product acclimate/acclimatise in the room it will be applied, for a minimum of 48 hours.
Surfaces must be smooth, dry, clean & firm. The product may not adhere to unclean/textured surfaces. Clean
surface using warm water only. If chemical cleaners, or soap is used, there can be no residue.
Allow at least 4 weeks for newly painted surfaces to fully cure (or longer, if recommended by paint
manufacturer) Test product in an inconspicuous location of surface before applying to desired location.
SURFACES NOT RECOMMENDED FOR APPLICATION
Textured Walls; Wallpaper; Brick/Cinderblock; Unpainted Drywall/Sheetrock or Plaster; Outdoors; Non-stick Paint.
If you are hanging this product around sockets or switches, switch o main power, unscrew fixtures & clean out all
dust prior to starting as this will negatively aect adhesion.
Any damp issues must be corrected before application of this wallcovering.
1) Draw a straight vertical line using your level, 20 inches (50cm) from the left hand side of your wall, unless
hanging a feature wall, where you should start in the center to ensure symmetry especially on large scale
designs. This is a guide for your first length/strip, so it’s important for it to be straight.
2) Peel about 12 inches (30cm) of the backing away. Apply the front sheet to the top of the wall, allowing a
bit of excess to overlap the ceiling. Align the right side of the length/strip to your mark & press to the smooth,
clean, dry wall. Working from top to bottom, pull the backing away as you evenly press the paper to the wall.
When peeling the backing away be careful around the edges to avoid papercuts. Do not stretch the material.
This can cause gaps between the seams overtime. Remove the sheet to reposition if needed. Slightly
overlapping lengths/strips by approximately 1/32in (0.5mm) is recommended.**
**If the product is not slightly overlapped when it shrinks back, it will leave a gap.
3) Use a plastic smoother to push out any air bubbles from the center outwards. Applying moderate pressure
use the smoother over the full surface area of the product to ensure firm adhesion to the wall. Trim along the
top & bottom of the length/strip using a straight edge & sharp utility knife. It’s important to use the smoother to
ensure adhesion.
4) Apply the next strip/length the same way, slightly overlapping & matching the pattern to the first strip/
length. If you are having diculty with an uneven corner, try cutting into the corner rather than wrapping from
one wall to the next.
TO REMOVE: Slowly pull edge from top corner directly downward. NUWALLPAPER® adhesive is repositionable
& always removable.
TO CLEAN: NUWALLPAPER® may be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. Excessive liquid may damage the
product and is not recommended.
WARNINGS: To minimise the hazard in the event of a fire do not hang wallcoverings over expanded polystyrene
veneers & ensure wallcoverings are always firmly stuck down.
