Maintenance

Wallcoverings made of fabric and natural grasses may be lightly vacuumed for normal dust accumulation.
Avoid direct, bright or reflected sunlight. Our wallcoverings are not guaranteed against fading or color change.
Maya Romanoff wallcovering materials are primarily formulated for dry-use areas.*
*Polyurethane can be applied to some of our products after installation to improve our products' retained beauty over time through increased resistance to occasional or light moisture. This coating is NOT a guarantee of waterproofing. We recommend testing first on a small, inconspicuous area. Maya Romanoff is not responsible for unsatisfactory results.
If a product requires more specific care and cleaning instructions, it will be noted on the product-specific installation instructions. Installation instructions come wrapped with every roll of shipped wallcovering and can also be downloaded from our website.

Cleaning

Before cleaning any product, we recommend testing first on a small, inconspicuous area.
If necessary, many of our products may be cleaned by blotting the soiled area with a soft, clean cloth dampened with a weak solution of a mild liquid detergent. Dry with a soft cloth. Please contact Client Services at 773.465.6909 to confirm that your wallcovering may be cleaned using this method.
Avoid getting the wallcovering excessively wet.
Do not use cleaners, solvents, or chemicals of any kind to clean Maya Romanoff products.
