What is the consumption per m² of this product?
Calculating consumption can be tricky, as customers need to measure everything accurately themselves. We always recommend accounting for a 10-20% cutting loss. Professionals can often apply the wallpaper with less than 10% loss.
Which surfaces can Ekotex Ecological Fibreglass Wallpaper be applied to?
Ekotex Ecological Fibreglass Wallpaper can be applied to any mineral surface. However, it’s essential to ensure the surface is ready for wallpapering.
When should I use primer?
If walls are untreated, it’s advisable to use a primer. You can test this by wringing out a wet sponge on the wall. If the water is absorbed into the wall, primer is necessary. The following surfaces should always be primed:
- Plasterboard walls
- Freshly plastered walls
- Gypsum blocks
Which wall paint should I use to finish Ekotex Ecological Fibreglass Wallpaper?
Ekotex also offers ecological wall paint that pairs perfectly with this wallpaper. This paint is of exceptional quality and provides immediate coverage over the renovation fleece. Alternatively, you can finish with our Renovation Fleece finish.
What kind of glue do I need, and how much?
We offer a special powder-based glue for ecological renovation fleece. One packet can make eight litres of glue, sufficient for 50m². Standard renovation fleece glue also works, and ten litres are enough for 50m².
