Proper care ensures your wallpaper looks stunning for years. Here’s how to maintain different types:
- Vinyl Wallpapers: These are the easiest to clean. Use a damp cloth and mild soap to wipe stains or dust. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Textured or Fabric Wallpapers: Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to gently remove dust. Spot-clean stains with a soft cloth and minimal moisture.
- Peel-and-Stick Wallpapers: If any corners peel, smooth them down with a wallpaper adhesive or double-sided tape. Avoid exposing them to heat sources like stoves or heaters.
- Mold & Moisture Prevention: In bathrooms and kitchens, use exhaust fans and avoid applying wallpaper to walls with seepage problems.
Regular dusting and occasional gentle cleaning will help keep the colors fresh and the edges intact, prolonging the wallpaper’s life and maintaining its aesthetic appeal.
