Technology and stages of proper wallpaper gluing

How sometimes you want changes in the interior, is it not so? Probably one of the best ways to update the situation is to glue new wallpapers. But not everyone knows how to do this, the question arises here: how to properly stick wallpaper?

1. Preparation of walls for work. This stage is one of the most important and responsible, because the wallpaper will not be attached well on a poorly processed surface. To facilitate the process of removing old wallpaper, wet them with water and wait a bit while they swell. Then use a metal spatula.

2. Alignment of cracks and bumps. Using a wide spatula and plaster, disguise all the imperfections of your wall plates.

3. Wash the floor, prepare the necessary tools (roulette and ruler, simple pencil, stepladder, glue and brush, wallpaper scissors, dry rag). Conveniently set on a dry washed floor, cut part of the wallpaper in accordance with their pattern and room size.

4. For the speed of the process, take your partner for yourself.

One of you will be responsible for the even gluing of the wallpaper along the upper edge of the wall, and the other ensures that the wallpaper strip lay down evenly, if necessary, smoothes it with a dry rag, expanding the air from the middle to the edges. In principle, that’s all. Finally, I would like to note that it is best to start work from the window and immediately glue those sections of the walls where additional cuts on the wallpaper will not be required.
