How to Remove Luxe Traditional Wallpaper:


Removing your Luxe wallpaper doesn't have to be intimidating. Using our provided paste, your wallpaper can be removed with ease compared to old school wallpaper! 


The following tools you'll need for removal are:

  • A sponge
  • Cloth/Towel
  • A bucket of water
  • A spray bottle with water


To begin, you will remove any outlet/light switch covers that were screwed in on top of your wallpaper. This will ensure you can easily peel off your wallpaper.

The next step will be to reactivate the paste underneath your wallpaper panels. This is what will allow your wallpaper to lift easily for removal.


To do so you will take your spray bottle and begin spraying the whole panel with water liberally. Use your sponge to push the water into the panels to ensure they are fully saturated. Allow 5-7 minutes for the water to reactivate your paste. 


Starting from a corner you will begin slowly peeling your wallpaper away from the wall. This should lift easily. If you get to any spot that your wallpaper is not lifting, take your sponge soaked in water and press the water into that area and allow it to sit for a few minutes. This should do the trick and allow you to continue with removal. Repeat as needed using your tools if you have any spots having trouble lifting! 


Once all of your wallpaper is removed, there will be some paste left over on your wall. You will take your bucket of water and a towel and wipe away all of the residue. Our paste is starch based and should not leave any stickiness on your wall after removing all the paste! 


To ensure your wall is extra clean, you can take your favorite all purpose surface cleaner and spray that on your wall and wipe it away. Viola- your wall is wallpaper free!
