Black Wood Wallpaper

This black wood peel and stick wallpaper worked perfectly for what I needed! I used it to repurpose a scratched-up wooden computer desk I got off Facebook Marketplace for free, and now it looks brand new. The adhesive was easy to work with, and the finish is sleek and clean. Such an affordable way to give old furniture a fresh, modern look.

I was a little skeptical as to how this would match the back wall of a black oak cheap book case I bought at Walmart ($35). The bookcase looked fine except for the inside back wall which was just a matte black piece of thick paper which I thought was not strong enough or nice looking enough (yes I should have bought a nicer model). I bought a piece of Masonite for $12 (Home Depot will cut it to size for you), and covered it with this black oak laminate - which was easy to do. No bubbles and it matches the rest of the case perfectly. I then nailed the covered Masonite to the back of the book case. The Masonite adds a lot to strength to the finished assembly and I don’t have to worry about things pushing out the back wall. This stuff was easy to work with and very much looks like real black oak.

This did the job of covering an older laminate worktop. It is on the thinner side. It tore easily when I was trying to cut angles. It is easy to remove and reposition as long as you are careful on the edges. The edges again are susceptible to tearing. I was able to cover the surface, and use a box cutter to angle cut the edges for a nice clean edge. It matches up fairly well if you overlap it. The seams are not overly noticeable. This is a nice black, perfect for my son's gaming den. It wipes clean with a damp rag.

Easy to use and looks amazing! The pattern alignment was very easy. Sticks easily and stays. The peeling ability was a little fustrating where as it doesn't peel like you would it expect it to. Overall for me it wasn't bad at all and love the way it looks once settled.

You get what you pay for. This is my second time using contact paper and this is nothing like the quality of the other paper I purchased from Amazon. This paper is very thin and fragile. It was getting scratched up just from being installed so I know it will look terrible with regular use. Also it's not very sticky. The plus it is very pretty and has a nice texture, if only it were thicker and stickier.

Looks good. A little sensitive when applying it so do be very careful on creases. Wipes down nicely

I used it to cover my baseboards in my kitchen. I hated seeing the scuff marks. I cleaned the surface with rubbing alcohol and waited for it to dry. It is a very forgiving material. It is easy to line up the seams. It added depth and some color to my kitchen. It is very sticky; please take your time and try not to have it stick to itself. I have not seen any peeling from my work. Easy to smooth out. I will buy more to finish this project.

Pros: thick and the texture is great for hiding seams. Looks great and the texture is 3d instead of printed. Goes a long way - I covered a small table and two filing cabinets with little bits left over even after messing up a couple times. Handles being sprayed with cleaner after installation.Not quite cons but things to keep in mind: this isn't like your normal contact paper - you really need something like a hair dryer to help apply it. This helps with both adhesion and flex.Cons: if you DON'T use a hair dryer, likely to crack around corners/edges, and will be bubbly. Doesn't like to stick to things like the bottom of furniture legs.Make sure you use a hair dryer (heat gun might be too much?) when applying. Go slow and do your best to pre-measure and plan out your sheets. Use the grid on the back for reference.
