Expert Installation Tips & Proven Home Wallpaper Solutions

Dull living rooms become so when one stops being inventive and settles for a vibe that was relevant at the time of setting it up. Change of hearts is common; they happen to be compatible with the ease of utility for which wallpapers are known. This is simply because the best home wallpapers in India are easy to remove, especially from a brand like Excel Home Decor. The sheer variety that Excel's wallpaper collections bring to your living room walls is enough to turn any dull space into a joyfully vibrant one. 

Good wallpapers are easy to remove years after installation - a process that can seem difficult at the outset when looked at from the outside. This is why we need experts & credible tips that can make the entire process seamless that involves less room for errors.

 

Expert Home Wallpaper Tips Designed For Seamlessness

Different categories of wallpaper involve different methods & rules of applying adhesive. For instance, Nonwoven Backed Wallcoverings are strictly advised to be dry-hung by applying the adhesive to the wall surface. 

However, in all cases, it is recommended to apply a premium grade, full strength, heavy-duty clear, capable of being stripped, mildew resistant Bartoline adhesive to the back
of the wallcovering.

 

Steps to Safely Install Wallpapers

Preparing the surface is essential to preventing problems from resurfacing after the wallpaper has been installed. 

If the wall has just been plastered, it shouldn't contain too much lime or alkali, or more residual moisture than 5.7%, according to a standard moisture meter.

Oil priming is recommended for fresh walls to help with adhesion. It is essential to ensure the soundness of existing walls because they can present a variety of conditions.

Before installing the vinyl wallcovering, glossy surfaces should be sanded, and any irregularities should be fixed.

The existing finishes' pores can be opened and their permeability is improved by sanding with sandpaper of a medium to rough grit. 

You can make sure that the vinyl wallcovering adheres properly and looks its best by following these instructions.

 

Prepare the Walls

The walls should be clean, dry, and free of any existing wallpaper, adhesive residue, or dirt. If there are any holes or cracks in the walls, they should be filled and sanded down before beginning.

 

Measure and Cut

Measure the height and width of the wall to determine the amount of wallpaper you'll need. Cut the wallpaper into manageable strips that are a few inches longer than the wall height.

 

Apply Adhesive

Follow the instructions on the wallpaper adhesive and apply it to the back of the wallpaper using a brush or roller. Make sure to evenly coat the entire strip of wallpaper.

 

Hang the Wallpaper

Starting from one end of the wall, carefully align the top edge of the wallpaper with the ceiling, leaving a slight overhang at the bottom. Smooth the wallpaper down onto the wall, using a wallpaper brush or squeegee to remove any bubbles or wrinkles.

 

Repeat and Match

Continue hanging strips of wallpaper, matching the pattern as you go. Make sure to butt the edges of each strip tightly against the previous one to avoid gaps.

 

Trim and Clean

Use a sharp utility knife to trim excess wallpaper at the top and bottom of the wall. Clean any excess adhesive with a damp sponge or cloth.

 

Why Should You Never Double-Hang the Wallpaper?

When it comes to renovating your home, it's important to start with a clean slate. If you're planning to change the look of a room by adding new wallcovering, it's essential to first remove any old wallpaper or wallcovering completely.

It may be tempting to cut corners and double-hang the new covering over the old, but this will only lead to an uneven and unsightly finish. Once the old wallcovering is removed, it's important to take the extra step of removing any remaining adhesive as well. 

A good quality adhesive remover can make this task much easier. After the adhesive is removed, it's important to rinse the wall thoroughly and allow it to dry completely. By taking these steps, you'll ensure that your new wallpaper looks the best and last for years to come.
