Full instructions are provided with each item to guide you through the hanging process. Please note that colours on screen may vary from the actual product shade.
The manufacturer recommends applying a top coat of paint or paper after stripping for a fully finished look. This paper offers a very well-reviewed solution with nearly 1,000 ratings, and weighs 820 grams per roll.
