How to glue a 3D wallpaper yourself: tips of experts

3D wallpaper - a new word in designinterior. With their help, you can create a cozy atmosphere in the room, temporarily move to warm countries, walk along the streets of Milan or Paris, find yourself in a sunny forest glade.

Preparatory work

You will need:

  • building level;
  • beacon (rope with cargo);
  • putty;
  • smooth spatula;
  • sandpaper;
  • antifungal primer;
  • flutes (wide brush);
  • roulette.

Using a beacon for smooth gluing of 3Dwallpaper. Before , you need to prepare the walls. All old finishing should be removed, this applies to both paint and wallpaper. Then you need to pull out all the nails and dowels from the wall, check the surface for deep scratches and dents. If you find such defects, then eliminate them with putty, then sand with sandpaper. Also check the plaster for crumbling, if it begins to crumble after a small impact, then it is better to re-plaster the walls. You need to glue 3D wallpaper only on a perfectly flat surface. For this reason, you need to check the walls with a building level and a beacon. If you do not have such devices, then you can do the following: in order to make a beacon, take an ordinary rope and tie a weight to it, and use a long ruler instead of a level. Using a beacon, draw vertical lines on the wall (along which the wallpaper will be glued), measure the distance from the wall to the rope (along the entire length) with a ruler, as well as between the horizontal markings (it should be the same). If you find the slightest deviation of 2-3 mm, then the wall will have to be leveled, otherwise it will not be possible to glue the wallpaper end-to-end, which is unacceptable in this case. The slightest error will simply spoil the whole impression, and no 3D effect will be achieved. After the wall is leveled and marked, proceed to priming. Do not underestimate this point, firstly, the primer will not allow the wall to "eat" some of the glue, which will allow the wallpaper to stick well. Secondly, 3D wallpaper is a fairly dense material that does not allow water to pass through. As a result, mold can form under them, so treating the walls with an antifungal primer is simply necessary. The solution is applied 1-2 times using a flute (wide brush), the work is left until the surface is completely dry. Return to contents</a>

Scheme of applying glue to wallpaper. You will need:

  • adhesive for heavy wallpaper;
  • a container for diluting the glue;
  • special brush;
  • rubber roller.

There is no way to glue wallpaper on your own,as the canvas is quite wide, and the work requires special attention. The work should be carried out at a temperature of +20-25º C (in extreme heat or cold, there is a high probability of peeling off the canvases). It is important to avoid drafts, so you need to work with closed doors and windows. This rule should be followed for several days after gluing. If the room is very hot, then you need to increase the air humidity, just put a few buckets of water. First, you need to dilute the glue according to the attached instructions. There are some nuances here: the container for dilution must be perfectly clean, first pour in water, then make a funnel with a wooden handle, then pour in the glue, continuing to stir. The water should not be warm or hot, otherwise the glue will take lumps. After this, you need to unfold the wallpaper on the floor to see the picture as a whole and not confuse the sequence of gluing the canvases. When gluing this type of wallpaper, glue is applied to the wall, not to the canvas.Scheme of smoothing wallpaper with a rubber spatula.This is done with a special brush. Wallpaper must be glued from the corner of the room, strictly adhering to the markings made with a beacon. The canvas is applied to the wall, then they begin to glue it, moving from top to bottom. Using a rubber roller, air bubbles are expelled, this must be done from the center to the edges. Make sure that the first strip is glued strictly according to the markings, then all the other canvases will be easy to join. It is necessary to glue 3D wallpaper only end to end, there should be no overlaps, while it is important to ensure that the line of the pattern is not disturbed when joining. If after gluing you still find that air bubbles have formed on the surface, then carefully pierce them with a thin needle. In the case when you need to paste 3D wallpaper on adjacent walls, you should pay special attention to the corners. To do the job as carefully as possible, take a flat spatula, wrap it with cloth several times. Using such a device, you can easily glue wallpaper in the corners. Pasting 3D wallpaper with your own hands is quite a complicated matter, requiring careful preparation of the walls and maximum attention. The advice from experts outlined above will help you cope with this difficult task yourself.</ ul> </ ul>
