A made-to-measure wallpaper mural is hung like a standard non-woven wallpaper, with one difference that matters: each panel carries a unique piece of the design. The hanging order and the check before pasting determine the result. Here is the method, based on the instructions of our print workshop in Germany.

On delivery, unroll each panel on a clean, flat surface and check them all: design, colours, numbering. Once a panel has been pasted, a defect that was visible before hanging can no longer be claimed — this is the workshop's rule as well as ours. Only use rolls from the same production run.
Do not use: a wallpaper spatula (rigid smoother), a brush, a seam roller or a plastic roller. Pressing too hard deforms the material, and the spatula scratches the surface. Use a soft damp cloth or a foam rubber roller instead.
The surface must be dry, sound, smooth, clean, even in colour and evenly absorbent. Remove all old wallpaper completely, fill any holes and sand down rough spots. If the wall absorbs unevenly or is powdery, apply a water-based primer. On a wall of uneven colour, a pigmented primer prevents differences in shade from showing through. On a non-absorbent surface, first hang a renovation non-woven lining.
Welltouch wallpaper has a non-woven backing: it is hung using the paste-the-wall technique. Apply the adhesive directly to the wall, generously and evenly, over a width slightly wider than one panel. The panel is hung dry, with no soaking time.
Immediately wipe off any adhesive that seeps out with a soft damp sponge: once dry, it remains visible.
Trim the excess directly on the wall, at the ceiling and along the skirting board, using the straightedge and a sharp utility knife. Change the blade often: a blunt blade tears the non-woven material instead of cutting it.
While it dries, avoid overheating the room and avoid draughts: drying too quickly can open the seams between panels. Hanging with a pasting machine is not covered by the workshop's warranty (dimensional stability and damage to the material).
On a well-prepared wall, a non-woven wallpaper can usually be stripped dry, without leaving any residue. Otherwise, dampen it, let the water soak in, then remove it: non-woven is much stronger than paper. Offcuts and old wallpaper go in household waste.
The recommendations above are general guidelines. Site conditions and the state of the surface remain beyond our control: if in doubt, test on a small area.

Enter the exact dimensions of the wall and tick “Hanging margin” in the configurator: 2.5 cm is added on each side so you can trim neatly. This area is included in the price.
Welltouch is not designed for wet rooms: they require a specific wallpaper. Ask us for a quote for your project.
The wall. Welltouch has a non-woven backing: the adhesive goes on the wall and the panel is hung dry.
An adhesive for non-woven wallpaper. The workshop tests its papers with Henkel's “Metylan direct”, but any non-woven adhesive is suitable.
No: it scratches the surface. Use a soft damp cloth or a foam rubber roller, without pressing too hard.
From left to right, following the numbering printed at the top of each panel, always with the numbering facing up. The order is also shown in the configurator before you order.
Do not hang it. Check all the panels dry before you start, and contact us with a photo at contact@cassili-home.com. A defect visible before hanging can no longer be claimed once the panel has been pasted.
