Cora is priced, packaged and sold by the set. Each set is an A and B roll. For the best results, we highly recommend using a professional wallpaper installer to hang this quality product. To find an expert hanger please contact the Wallcovering Installers Association in your area or check their website https://www.wallcoveringinstallers.org. The highest quality of workmanship is employed in the production of this wallcovering. Careful inspection is made before shipment, however, final inspection and approval are the ultimate responsibilities of the customer. Correct design, color and quantity should be verified before the wallcovering is cut or hung. We can not accept any liability for faulty rolls after they have been cut.
WALL PREPARATION
We do not recommend installing over existing wallcoverings. Remove old wallcovering and glue if applicable. Some papers may allow some show- through—all surfaces must be smooth and sound, free of dust and peeling of inferior paint. Inferior latex paints must be cured with a product such as Gardz. New plaster must be properly cured (60-90 days) and feel cool to the touch. Remove existing wallcoverings, sand. Wash and clean thoroughly to disinfect, remove adhesive and eliminate mold and bacteria. Patch and sand as necessary to achieve a smooth surface. Prime with a universal wallcovering primer (T9000, Sheildz, 1-23 etc.). Do not use oil-based primers. For new walls: smooth, free of dust, room temperature (55 degrees F or warmer for at least 12 hours prior to installation) and properly primed as instructed above.
TRIMMING
Use a sharp new blade, brass bound straightedge and zinc strip. Refer to join
marks on the paper edge for pattern match. Use trim marks provided to trim the
excess from the edges of paper.
PASTING
This wallcovering can be hung best with a lightweight clear premixed adhesive.
Wheat, cellulose, and clay-based adhesives are not recommended. Using either a
pasting machine or roller, apply an even coat of adhesive over the entire back
of each strip of the wallcovering. Be sure the edges are evenly and adequately
covered. Book the pasted sheet and allow adequate soak time (about 5 minutes)
before installing. Soak time is essential to allow the pasted sheet time to
relax and expand in order to prevent bubbles, wrinkles, and possible shrinkage
after drying.
HANGING
Any writing on the wall to aid in the installation should be done with a light
pencil or a similar color pencil to the ground of the wallcovering. Never use
a ballpoint pen or marker as they may show through. After cutting the desired
length and pasting, position the wallcovering on the wall. Use a smoothing
brush to remove all air pockets, wrinkles and excess paste by brushing the
wallcovering from the center to the edges. Use caution if rolling seams. Do
not allow paste to get on the face of the wallcovering. If any should get on
the face, remove at once with a damp, not wet sponge using a flicking action
rather than scrubbing. Blot with a Turkish towel or soft cloth. Do not wipe.
Do not allow paste to dry on the face of the wallcovering as permanent damage
may occur.
