Anaglypta Lapwing RD735 Armadillo Contract

Anaglypta Lapwing  RD735 is a perfect example of using modern technologies to create wallpapers that offer appealing design styles and hard to match durability. Armadillo Contract range of wallpapers is made from a single layer of heavy-duty and high-quality textile reinforced paper. Which is permanently embossed at extremely high temperatures and pressures. Due to the roll width of 75 cm (typically wallpapers are 53 cm wide) and paste-the-wall method of wallpaper hanging, Anaglypta Lapwing RD735 offers a much quicker way of wallpapering walls with less joints to worry about.

Preparation

• Surfaces painted prior to 1960 may contain lead pigments, special precautions should be taken during preparation.
• To minimise the hazard in the event of fire, do not hang wallcoverings over polystyrene veneers.
• Keep room warm and well ventilated.
• Turn electricity off at the main fuse box when working around switches, sockets, light fittings etc.
• Remove any existing loose wallcoverings or linings.
• Surfaces must be clean, smooth and dry.
• Treat areas affected by either damp or mould at the source.
• Pre-treat new plaster or other absorbent surfaces with a fungicidally protected adhesive or ‘size’.
• Roughen gloss painted surfaces with glass paper. Lining paper is recommended for uneven or contrasting surfaces.
• Freshly painted surfaces should be left for at least 3 days prior to application.
• For ‘paste the wall’ application always use a good quality ready mixed adhesive or other adhesive suitable for such applications. Note: Starch based fl ake adhesives are not recommended especially when using ‘paste the wall’ technique.

Application Guidance

Hang straight from the roll or pre cut lengths (allow extra for trim and pattern match)

1. Mark a guide line with a pencil using a plumb line to ensure vertical. When applying to ceilings ensure the line is parallel to the ceiling edge.

2. If using ‘paste the wall’ technique apply over a big enough area to hang one full length at a time, ensuring the pasted area exceeds the width required. If ‘pasting the paper’ please make sure the whole side is covered especially the edges N.B; ARMADILLO DOES NOT REQUIRE SOAKING. SOAKING HOWEVER WILL NOT DAMAGE OR AFFECT IT.

3. Apply the fi rst length along the guideline, smooth out with a brush or spatula and trim.

4. Butt joints and match pattern on all lengths. We do not recommend that Armadillo is overlapped at corners as it will resist creasing and folding. We advise that the product is trimmed accurately at corners using a decorators knife together with a straight edge or similar.

5. Allow Armadillo to dry thoroughly before painting, normally 24 to 48 hours.

6. Armadillo is dry strippable in many applications.
