Adding resin to wallpaper can create a stunning feature wall, offering a clear and resilient finish that preserves your chosen design. Choosing the right resin ensures a professional result and long-term protection for your decorative surface.
Why Resin Type Matters for Wallpaper
For feature walls, the clarity, consistency, and application method of the resin are crucial. Epoxy resins designed for decorative art applications give wallpapers a glossy, vivid finish while providing protection from knocks and light exposure. Ultra-high viscosity formulations are especially useful here, as they prevent unwanted colour movement and preserve line definition, making them ideal for wallpapers with intricate patterns or bold prints.
Top Resin Choices for Feature Wall Applications
- Art Pro Deluxe: Specially crafted for exacting design work, this epoxy resin delivers a crystal-clear and highly durable layer. Its significant viscosity ensures that detailed wallpaper remains sharp and undisturbed during application.
- Art Pro: If you prefer a thinner, more easily spread finish, Art Pro offers excellent clarity and scratch resistance, suitable for flat wall surfaces that do not require heavy texture protection.
- Trasparente: For those seeking a self-levelling resin that can be applied up to 2cm thick, Trasparente provides a brilliant, glass-like finish while safeguarding the underlying design.
How to Use Epoxy Resin Safely on Wallpaper
Always start with a dry, dust-free wallpaper surface. Make sure the wallpaper is firmly adhered and free of moisture, as epoxies (such as Art Pro Deluxe) are not suitable for damp or water-based backgrounds. Apply the resin by brush or roller in a thin, even layer, taking care to protect skirting boards and adjacent walls. Remember to follow manufacturer instructions for mixing and curing times to ensure a spotless result.
When Resin Selection Makes a Difference
The choice of resin is especially important for feature walls that serve as a focal point in living rooms, dining spaces, or home studios. Using a premium resin will maintain your wallpaper’s visual impact and help prevent yellowing or dullness over time.
