Plexik of the wallpaper joint in the joint: the instruction on seamless sticking

1

No matter how much they say the opposite, but stickingwallpaper without visible joints is determined not only by the skills of the master. A good result when pasting the wallpaper joint in the joint can be achieved without being a professional and not even making significant efforts. But for this you have to find out some nuances. The scheme of calculating wallpaper for the room. Experts say that the results of pasting affect: 70% - the quality of the wallpaper and 30% - the skill of the artist. There are quite a few situations where joints are formed, no matter how much effort is made to level them. And the matter here is absolutely not in mastery. The technology of pasting can be carried out according to the rules, but the properties of the acquired type of wallpaper will influence. This fact should be taken for granted. By the way, the price of a roll is not always a guide to quality. These nuances should be taken into account. Therefore, it is not superfluous to be armed with some information, proceeding to the choice of material.

What to look for when choosing wallpaper?

To the joints on the surface were not so noticeable, it is recommended to paint the places of the supposed joints with the paint of the corresponding shade.

  • Edges. If you like the wallpaper have a dark color, then look at their edges. They should not have a narrow strip of light shade. The width of such a strip is insignificant, but it will notably denote joints. And when two panels are combined side by side, the width of the light bands increases. Light edges are a factory marriage, and fairly common. Experts argue that expensive wallpaper can have such a defect. Therefore, once again, we emphasize that the price of the material is not the parameter that should be paid attention to when selecting.
  • A relief surface. All wallpapers are of two categories: smooth or relief. The first are quite demanding on the evenness of the base. If the walls are not plastered and have irregularities, they will not disguise them. On the contrary, they are stressed. This group includes vinyl and paper types, as well as wallpaper and silkscreen. The gluing of smooth wallpaper with respect to joining is complex: the joints can be clearly visible even under the condition of excellent wall preparation. The lesser whims are to be expected from the relief paintings. This group includes vinyl, individual varieties of paper and variants on non-woven basis. They reliably hide the flaws in the preparation of the surface, and sometimes significant irregularities. And the greater the convexity of the relief, the more effective the material in this respect is. In many cases joints are obtained without problems. The most successful option is the texture wallpaper "straw". Their gluing gives a 100% guarantee that joints on them will not be distinguishable.
  • Colors. In more than 90% of situations, the wallpaper of the light tonality is better. Split joints or simply by neglect the left gaps on a dark background will be visible, as in the palm of your hand.
  • Width of rolls. The most popular width is 53.0 cm and 1.06 m. Wider wallpaper has a lower probability of poorly fitting, at least for the simple reason that fewer bands come out of them.
  • Embossed wallpaper with vertical stripes are very good for docking. Striped pattern also perfectly masks the joints.

    A pile of ideas for home repairs

    Schematic of the cross movement of the roller when appliedglue on the wall. Known methods that allow you to get the minimum visibility of joints. We list them. The first way: asymmetric connection of vertical stripes It may seem that the alternation of wallpaper strips is the designer's idea, an option for decorating the interior. In fact, for this purpose, there are many applied functions, including concealing the inconveniences of planning. Situations that can not be avoided without combining:

  • High walls in a small space.
  • Disproportionate length and width (for example, the room is narrow and long), which creates obvious difficulties when arranging furniture.
  • Visual combination of adjacent rooms (for example, a living room and a kitchen).
  • Delineation of functional areas in a large room, without attracting furnishings and other accessories.
  • Accent an interior element or just one wall, serving as a background for a design composition.
  • Method two: horizontal alignment of large and small drawings Scheme of correct wall finishing butt. To glue the wallpaper completely without visible joints, it is possible to resort to this simple at first glance version. The walls are divided horizontally into two components (not necessarily uniform) and pasted with wallpaper-companions. This option of combination will make the ceilings in the room not so high. A more classic option is the combination of monochrome and materials in stripes or small and large patterns. The surface of the wall in most situations is divided in a ratio of ½ and, according to the mood of the designer, it is pasted either from top to bottom or from bottom to top (in proportion 2 / 3-1 / 3). A decorative molding, a border, a plank can act as a border of strips of different types of materials. One thing is chosen, focusing on the thickness of materials and the design of the room. The third way: the vertical connection of different wallpapers. Another way of gluing wallpaper into the joint on the walls is known, with their vertical separation. Procedure for wallpaper gluing.

  • Uniform combination of two colors or textures, while the stripes alternate after one or two.
  • To visually increase the width of the roomuse an asymmetrical alternation: the surfaces are pasted with a background material, and then broad strips with an accent shade are glued on the walls requiring expansion (on one wall - in the center, on the other - near the corner).
  • Symmetry. In both directions from the middle of the room on the long walls are glued two strips with a bright tint or outstanding texture. This method allows you to visually shorten the length of the room.
  • "Accent wall" - reception for verticalcombination. One of the walls, which lacks dynamics or which serves as the backdrop of the main element of the interior, is glued with a bright shade of material that looks favorably among the other tinted options in the room.

    Instructions for seamless gluing of different types of wallpaper

    A scheme for pasting wallpaper in the corners.

  • Paper. Lap glued about 0.5 cm. On the floor roll out the wallpaper and apply glue on it. Then evenly apply to the surface of the wall and smooth. Bonding paper strips is a lot of trouble. Their quality is much lower than that of other types of wallpaper finishing, so their cost is appropriate. It is not allowed to linger here, especially when the glue is already applied to the canvas. It is important not to allow deformation of the paper. For this, you should carefully read the recommendations in the attached instructions.
  • Flizelin-vinyl. They have the quality of the middle class, the cost is within affordable. Since the wallpaper is completely safe, they are allowed to glue even in the child's room. They are more durable than paper, but they are inferior to vinyl. Cloths are glued lapped at approximately 0.1-0.2 cm. If the glue is applied directly to the wall, then glue it to the joint. Flizelin-vinyl materials can be painted with water-based paint.
  • Vinyl. They paste the easiest, and do it by butt, leaving no gaps between the sheets. Use a special vinyl adhesive for covering heavy wallpaper. The glue is applied solely to the wall, but not to the canvas. The procedure of gluing takes very little time. This species does not stretch, does not tear, it fits well on the wall, however it dries long. After gluing, make sure that there are no drafts in the room. Otherwise you can see the wallpaper on the floor.

    How to properly glue the joints?

    There are no special secrets in this matter.exist. Experience comes along with practice. Many experts combine canvases on the machine or intuitively. Although in general the eyes of an outside observer, this procedure may look like this. Begin to glue each new strip exactly from the joint, trying as closely as possible to fit it. If a small empty space is formed in some place, it is deleted later. The next step is the straightening of the canvas, it is not worthwhile to fix it at this moment, as removing all the glue from under it will make it impossible to slide the wallpaper on the surface, and then the two canvases connected together will still disperse after drying. After straightening the canvas, the joint itself is tightened with the help of your own palms or a plastic spatula. Remains of glue while trying to squeeze out towards the joint. It's important not to stretch the wallpaper very much and strongly not to press on them. Especially this item refers to thin products. The above describes how the wallpaper should be glued to the walls at the junctions. There should be no misunderstandings.
