Arthouse 670901 Raffia Silver Wallpaper

I haven't wallpapered before. This wallpaper is actual PAPER. Some others are Vinyl, or has a coating.because this is paper, apply paste to the wallpaper, let is sit, 5 minutes then apply. You must wait. If you don't it will bubble. I went through rolls to learn how to use it. Other wallpaper like vinyl dont need to wait, but you must.Wish the directions were more clear.The paper looks ok. has a green tint. Wish I spent a little more on a better wallpaper.

Purchased 5 rolls and installed them in a few hours. My only problem with it was that it is not pre-pasted and it has a tendency to absorb the glue and dries too fast. By the time you finish applying the glue the other end starts to dry and won't adhere to the wall. To remediate I had to use a bottle spray filled with water and wet the paper before applying the glue. Other than that it is a fine wall paper, thick enough so it does not tear too easily.

compre 3 ocaciones y todos llegaron de otros tonos y el papel es muy muy sencillo, se rompe con facilidad

Firstly, I should say I am an experienced paper hanger. And am a bit of a perfectionist. So, after papering the first wall with this paper I was sweating like the proverbial pig and totally wrung out. I let it dry back and was ready to tear it off again the following day. (I have, in fact, taken off half of it). The seams have not stuck well and they really show badly. I never see a seam when I paper. I have tried pasting the edges and pressing them into the wall with a clean cloth but they still show horribly. Cutting around plug sockets and light switches was a total nightmare, the paper was difficult to handle and stretched and tore at will. Also, trying to follow a plum line which had been drawn on the wall to the measurement of the dry paper was impossible. Once pasted, the paper spreads and is a good half centimetre wider than it started out. I would NEVER EVER buy this paper again and am in two minds as to whether I will finish the job or tear it all off and start again. The paper looks nice if you don’t mind seeing seams and wrestling with the devil to get it on the wall.

Quite different than what the image shows. It's more striped than solid. However, I really like it and wish I could order more.
