The essence, purpose of the apron

The surface of the walls here is usually decorated with materials that are resistant to moisture, which are easy to clean from contaminants associated with culinary processes.
A kitchen apron not only makes the cleaning process easier. The coating protects against destruction and loss of attractiveness of the wall in areas of active use. A beautifully designed surface diversifies the design and acts as a connecting link between design elements.

Rules for choosing coverage
All materials intended for the design of kitchen splashbacks are selected taking into account operational requirements. When making a purchase from a specialized department, you can be sure of the possibility of using the presented copies. When choosing, you just need to pay attention to the following characteristics:
- Surface smoothness. The presence of relief makes it difficult to care for the apron. Dirt runs the risk of accumulating in the grooves. Hard-to-reach places are harder to keep clean. At the same time, the mirror glossy surface requires more care than the standard version without gloss.
- Availability of protective coating. An additional layer on the surface of the material will protect against rapid abrasion and provide resistance to aggressive chemicals used for cleaning.
- No external defects. Even a small chip, crack, or bubble risks reducing its service life. When purchasing, it is important to inspect each piece, which will save you from unnecessary expenses, disappointment and rapid wear of the product.
The beauty of purchasing materials in large specialized hypermarkets, such as Leroy Merlin, lies not only in the variety of products, but also in careful sorting by purpose and quality control.
Wallpaper Vinyl 0.53x10m
Vinyl wallpaper is wallpaper that consists of two layers - non-woven or paper (bottom layer) and foamed polyvinyl chloride (top layer), onto which a pattern or embossing is applied. They have increased strength and resistance to any external influences, are durable and wear-resistant. On the website of our online store you can choose and buy inexpensive wallpaper, and it can be either non-woven vinyl wallpaper or paper-based vinyl wallpaper.
You can be confident that you are making the right choice. You can use this wallpaper to cover the walls of any room in your home: living room, kitchen, hallway, bedroom and even children’s room. They are marked with a simple, non-binding design, which, despite this, will always look stylish and will become a harmonious addition to any interior.
These wallpapers can create a pleasant, warm atmosphere in the room, conducive to positive friendly communication and have a beneficial effect on the emotional background.
When working with vinyl wallpaper, you will get great pleasure not only from decorating your home, but also from the process of pasting itself, because walls with such wallpaper are covered very easily and quickly.
How to glue vinyl wallpaper?
This wallpaper is applied very simply, almost the same as regular wallpaper, but there are still a number of differences.
Firstly, glue - it must be designed specifically for vinyl wallpaper, otherwise all your work will be in vain. Secondly, when pasting, do not stretch the wallpaper under any circumstances, because After drying, they may separate. Thirdly, use a special roller to roll the wallpaper and the joints between them. Also keep in mind that in the room whose walls you are going to paste, there should be no drafts and a constant air temperature is desirable.
Before gluing wallpaper (it doesn’t matter whether it’s compact vinyl, heavy vinyl, silk-screen printing, paper or non-woven backing), you need to prepare the walls. They must be cleaned of old wallpaper, there should be no traces of paint, putty, etc. on them. All this can be removed very easily using a familiar spatula. If the old wallpaper is difficult to peel off, you can use water - wet the old wallpaper and wait a little, then start cleaning. If the old paint does not lend itself, then use a solvent - the principle of operation is similar to the previous one.
Do not forget that if there are serious defects on the walls (potholes, cracks, etc.), then before pasting the walls they must be covered with putty, the remnants of which must also be removed with a spatula after drying.
After preparing the walls, you can start gluing them. Vinyl wallpaper (with a pattern, without a pattern, silk-screen printing, copact vinyl, etc.) is glued according to the same scheme: first, the glue is applied to a section of the wall (corresponding to the width of the wallpaper), then you need to wait 2-3 minutes until the glue begins to “set” ", and only after that a strip of wallpaper is applied to the wall. As soon as the wallpaper sticks to the wall, you need to immediately roll it with a roller so that there are no sticky spots or air bubbles left. As the wall is covered with each new strip, the joints between the strips are rolled with a roller.
Buying vinyl wallpaper is half the battle; it’s much more important to cover the walls with it in a high-quality manner. Take this issue seriously and take our recommendations into account - then the walls of your home will look great!
Classic
Preference is given to standard tiles. Calm shades are a priority. There may be a discreet monotonous pattern. The area will become an interesting detail with tiles in a Gzhel or Khokhloma design. The surface with a smooth color transition looks great.

Minimalism
Wooden panels, tiles, and glass will fit well. Making a plain, discreet apron is the best solution. It is not necessary to give preference to the classic white color.
Natural, pleasing tones are available. It is better to refuse drawings. Although the use of a large, moderately bright, realistic picture is not excluded.
Loft
Wooden blocks or brick-style tiles will be a good choice. No drawing required here. If you can’t do without pictures, then choose simple black and white schemes with large, sparse strokes.
You need to take the organization of an apron in the kitchen seriously. A minor detail can greatly affect the convenience, practicality, and aesthetics of the room. Everything you need for repairs is easy to find in Leroy Merlin.
Washable and regular wallpaper - what's the difference?
Finishing materials for the kitchen should be chosen carefully. The microclimate of the kitchen is different from other rooms: increased humidity, increased and decreased temperatures, and also a greater risk of contamination. Therefore, ordinary paper wallpapers are not suitable - they will have to be changed too often. You need to choose washable ones.
The ability to withstand wet cleaning does not distinguish wallpaper into a separate class - different materials may have this characteristic. And the type of wet cleaning that different wallpapers can withstand varies: from wiping with a damp cloth with a mild detergent to washing with a brush. Moisture-resistant wallpaper is simply not suitable for the kitchen: it can only be lightly wiped with a damp cloth to remove dust. It will not be possible to remove stronger stains from them.
You can identify the degree of resistance to moisture and friction by the icons that mark the rolls. The greater the protection, the greater the number of special symbols (like a wave). The type of wallpaper is indicated using the abbreviation; there are 8 types in total; 5 are suitable for the kitchen.
