WALLPAPER PASTE

For standard wallpaper we recommend any good, pre-mixed, heavy duty, proprietary brand such as Solvite, Polycell or Halls B-Line. We have found that Halls B-Line supply appropriate paste in a yellow topped container that is well suited for the majority of the walls, and also paste in a red topped container that is especially good for the edges and seams.

If you have chosen to have your order printed on vinyl wallpaper we recommend you use a wheat based adhesive such as B-Line - Prepared Tub Paste. This comes in a black and white container with a green lid and is available from a company called Ciret.

None of our fabrics have been treated to comply with Fire Regulations. However, all our fabrics can be treated for both Domestic and Contract use for upholstery, curtains and bedcovers. Fabrics that have 100% Natural Fibre content will pass a Cigarette Test, but not a Match Test. However, for domestic projects the fabric can be used over a Schedule 3 interliner. For contract use the fabric will have to be specifically treated.

A measure of fabric durability as an upholstery fabric. Also known as the Martindale test.
