Re: Paste The Wall Wallpaper
Was that a Yes?
I have not used Paste The Wall Wallpaper and have always used normal paper.
Slightly worried that I will get it wrong by pasting the wall first, even though that is the whole point of the paper.

Re: Paste The Wall Wallpaper
Sorry I misunderstood
I have never seen or heard of paste the wall wallpaper.
I have only ever seen the normal paper

Re: Paste The Wall Wallpaper
The most important thing is consistency of the paste too thin you will get bubbles, to thick it will be hard to move into place without tearing(problematic with lining paper), if you are hanging vertically pasting the wall isn`t required, but I would if hanging Horizontally in a large room as it will allow the maneuverability required to do this successfully.Ashers wrote:Simple question:

Paste the wall.
With emulsion.
Throw the wallpaper away.

Wallpaper is awful, especially when it comes to removing it. Never buy textured as you can't even paint over it.

Re: Paste The Wall Wallpaper
I don`t know what that is, the only time I paper walls is with Lining Paper to make them fit for painting, or I guess for adding patterned paper, walls are for toned colours, paintings and well framed Photographs, printed wallpaper will date and look like you have tried too hard, always.Ashers wrote:So do you get more bubbles with Paste The Wall Wallpaper?

Re: Paste The Wall Wallpaper
Sorry just seen this. I used paste a wall a few months back, mix plenty of paste as the walls can really suck you brush dry but it was the easiest tidiest wallpapering job I've ever done. I will look for paste the wall first from now on.

Re: Paste The Wall Wallpaper
You could PVA the walls first I suppose....I reckon with 'paste the wall' paper you'd need to do this anyway.WilBert wrote:mix plenty of paste as the walls can really suck you brush dry

Lets call it trial and error.

Hey Ash, just doing a bit myself & got paste the wall paper.Ashers wrote:ThanksWilBert wrote:Sorry just seen this.

As an old stickler for protocol I am pasting the paper & wall, just think that there is no need for soaking.
I have done about 6 lengths now.

Re: Paste The Wall Wallpaper
I used it today and did exactly the same thing.
Have to say that the paper went on better than any I have used before and looks great.
