  Preliminary actions

Calculation of the number of wallpaper and glue

The number of wallpaper depends on the height of the walls, length and width of the roll, the need to combine the pattern. So, with the height of the walls of 2.5 m and the length of the wallpaper in a roll of 10.5 m, we have four canvases, if the drawing is not needed to align and three, if it is necessary to combine it. The remaining piece use above the door or window. The number of cloths we obtain when dividing the magnitude of the perimeter of the room to the roll width. We also buy suitable wallpaper adhesive, consumption directly depends on the number of wallpaper.

Surface preparation

Before you begin to stick the wallpapers, the walls align with putty and sandpaper, after the primer.

You can use a special primer or diluted with a liquid condition.

Preparation of instruments and materials

To simplify the task, prepare the tools in advance that may be needed in the process of work, namely:

• ladder
• bucket for glue
• brush
• Rubber roller
• Plastic spatula
• Hard brush
• stationery knife
• pencil
• Level or plumb
• roulette
• scissors
• Rag
• Clay wallpaper
• wallpaper

Cooking glue

It is better to argue about what wallpaper glue is meaningless. For each type of wallpaper, its own. We buy suitable wallpaper glue, how to breed it - you can read in the instructions. It is usually dissolved in cold water, slowly pouring and thoroughly stirring so that the lumps are not formed. After that, we give the solution.

Stowing wallpaper

Pre-cut the wallpaper with a small allowance (8-10 cm) on the plinth and the ceiling. We do this with the help of a stationery knife or scissors.

Be sure to take into account the displacement step. To figure out how to switch the wallpaper correctly, you should read the insert with the instruction.

Thin wallpaper can be glued to the brass and jack, thick - just jack.

Retreat from the angle is slightly less than the width of the roll. With the help of a plumb or level, we mark the vertical to which we will customize the first sheet.

Depending on the type of wallpaper, we wash the canvas (or wall) with glue, fold it on both sides to the middle and remove it for time so that it is soaked as indicated in the instructions.

Then we climb the cloth and glue the wall, starting from above, aligning vertically. Near the ceiling, leave a small battery.

With the help of a rigid brush or plastic spatula, you save air and remnants of glue, starting with the middle to edges and to the bottom. The joints are well rolled by a rubber roller.

After the first sheet is glued, we drive the top of the face and cut off excess. The edge of the sheet again wakes glue and press it well.

The following strips are glued in the same way as the first, while combining the drawing and the place of the junction of the canvas.

Above windows and doorways glue the same way. Supleny cut off.

By gluing wallpaper in the most problematic places, add a bit of plow to the wallpaper glue.

Warming sockets or switches, turn off the electricity and remove the boxes. In these places, cut out the walls so that the edges hide into the box.

From the bottom of the science we get under the plinth.

Important

When sticking wallpaper under the baguette, you need to monitor that the joint is exceptionally smooth.

If the wallpaper is heavy, the frieze is better to stick not on top of the wallpaper, but an online jack. Therefore, the place is left for the frieze, the horizontal line is stated to which the wallpaper is width.

During walls of walls, wallpapers must be closed and the heating devices are turned off. Wallpaper need to give well to dry in a natural way.
