The washability of wallpaper varies by material—some resist water and soap better than others, while sponges can damage delicate types. Proper care extends its lifespan and revives its original shine.
Refer to the washability ratings for materials available on our site, and follow these expert advice for best results.
Not sure how to clean wallpaper or what products are safe? Start with a soft, dry cloth or tea towel to dust off surface dirt and minor marks. For deeper cleaning, use a damp sponge with warm, soapy water. Stubborn stains on textile wallpapers may require a soft toothbrush. Always check cleaning product labels, as some can harm paper-based options.
Avoid frequent washing to prevent color fading—weekly scrubs can weaken hues over time. Frequency depends on your household: homes with kids may need more attention than solo living spaces. Clean stains promptly upon spotting them to minimize scrubbing and preserve longevity.
