ADVICE FOR PAPERHANGERS NON-WOVEN WALLCOVERING

• After preparing the walls line them with the appropriate grade of lining paper.
• If high levels of alkaline are present in the walls this may affect foil papers.  If in doubt prepare the walls with an alkaline resistant primer.

• We recommend using a traditional style, starch based, ready mixed tub paste for all wallcoverings.
• PVA or PVC type adhesives are not suitable for our wallpaper as they may cause surface staining or adhesion problems.
• Avoid squeezing paste out of the joints. Paste should not come into contact with the printed side of the paper.
• THE WALLS SHOULD BE PASTED NOT THE WALLPAPER.
• Use a felt roller for smoothing.

HANGING COLE & SON WALLPAPER:

• Only cut and hang 1 length at a time.
• Check which way up the design is before hanging.
• Do not crease the paper when folding lengths.
  
• Trim tops and bottoms of lengths with paperhangers shears or a sharp knife and a straight edge.
• Joints should be tightly butted and never overlap.
  
• Dark coloured wallpaper may need the edges coloured with a slightly lighter shade of chalk or pastel to prevent white edges showing.
• Where wallpaper rolls are numbered the hanging should be done in sequence.
  
• Jaspé or Stipple designs should be reverse hung with alternate lengths in sequence.

WARNING:

• It is the responsibility of the decorator to check that this wallpaper is correct.
• Some wallpapers may be damaged by moisture on the surface.
• Check all wallpapers within 14 days of delivery and contact your supplier immediately or after 3 lengths have been hung if there is a problem.  We cannot accept responsibility for wallpaper hung after 3 lengths.
