There are many ways to stick wallpaper at home and, as a rule, this “secret information” is transmitted from mouth to mouth, from father to son. Talking with professionals, such conclusions were made: before starting work, it is necessary to decide on the type of wallpaper and adhesive compounds, the global surface and tools, as well as determine the technology of early work. Let’s start everything in order.
Description of the article:
All wallpaper belong to one of the species:
Paper wallpapers are most often used due to their cheapness. Not suitable for premises with increased evaporation and moisture, in them they will simply “swim”. As for glue, any.
Two -layer vinyl wallpapers – the use of these wallpapers effectively solve the problem with the hidden of wall defects.
Non -woven – a special type of “strong” paper wallpaper from cellulose. When gluing them, the glue is applied directly to the surface of the wall, and then lay dry wallpaper. With this use, the seams are especially neat.
Textile wallpaper
Textile – the use of these wallpaper is very limited, because you need perfectly even walls differently each “hole” and Krivinka will be striking.
Glass wallpaper – the service life of these wallpapers is 30 years, and as for the place of application, it can be any. After pasting, they must be painted. Applied to the wall, as well as non -woven.
Liquid – a wall pasted with liquid wallpaper, acquires a soft sensation in contact. There are no seams either. Wallpaper is very easily repaired. They dry approximately 12 – 72 hours.
Wallpaper pricking method from “grandmother”
To begin with, you need to prepare a glued wall: for this it is necessary to plaster it, leve up the existing irregularities. At the end of this process, you need to primed the wall.
To the panels that will be used need to be added 2cm in order to get the opportunity to align the irregularities at the floor.
When choosing glue, you should use the one that the company manufacturer offers on the packaging.
Depending on the type of wallpaper, the glue is applied to the wall or directly to the wallpaper itself. When moving to another canvas, you should wash off all the glue from the surface on which this glue was applied (gender of the room, usually). To apply glue, use a roller. Glue should start applying from the center of the cut -off panel and sequentially move to the edges. When applying liquid wallpaper, it is best to use a spatula or a special sprayer. Wallpaper should be glued. This process is more convenient to do with two people: one sticks, and the other combines the edges of the paintings.
The glued canvas should be smoothed out with a rubber roller, and the excess that performs, the glue should be removed with a dry rag.
When determining the number of necessary rolls, use the following rules:
1.To measure the width of the roar on the roulette. With this mark, go along the whole perimeter of the room, not forgetting to count how many times the label includes in this perimeter. Windows can be skipped, because for gluing above and under them you can use parts that will definitely remain.
2. Next, you should calculate the length of one canvas. It equals the distance from the lower point of the floor to the highest point of the ceiling. This length should be divided into 10.5 (average length of one roll).
3.Divide the number obtained in paragraph 1 into a number from paragraph 2.
The result of 3 points and will be equal to that the number of rolls that should be bought.
It is also noted that you should buy a little more than it should, and at once the entire necessary amount. So you will insure yourself from unnecessary troubles, which are usually accompanied during the repair.
We wish you good luck.
