Bian Zhilin has a very charming poem: "You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery/The people watching the scenery are watching you upstairs/The bright moon decorates your windows/You decorate other people's dreams." After all, a dream is a dream and cannot replace reality; decoration is just decoration. If it is not done well, its true colors will always be revealed. Recently, Mr. Liang, a citizen, called to complain: "The walls of my home have just been decorated with wallpaper. In less than half a year, the wallpaper has all fallen off, exposing the lime layer."
Nowadays, home decoration has become more and more difficult. More and more people like to choose wallpaper decoration, because wallpaper decoration is beautiful and elegant, and more importantly, it can save costs. Many people think that wallpapering is easier than painting, as long as the wall is kept neat and clean. In fact, wallpapering requires a lot of details, and there are different processing methods for different wall substrates. It also needs to be done step by step without making any mistakes.
Wall surface treatment
If you want the wallpaper to not fall off, wall treatment is the first step in the "Long March". The first step is to remove the "clutter" on the wall, such as paint, plaster and other items. If there are cracks or holes in the wall, these places should be filled with gypsum powder, leveled and then put on a bandage. Some walls are soft or have a layer of powder. Wallpaper glue should be applied once to make the wall firm. If you still want to have a thermal insulation effect, you can order gypsum board on the wall.
Cutting wallpaper
You need to measure the height of the wall first to determine the length of the wallpaper. There is a small detail that needs special attention here. You need to add about 10 centimeters to the measured wall height to facilitate the up and down trimming of the wallpaper. If it is an asymmetrical floral wallpaper, just leave 10 centimeters; if it is a wallpaper with a symmetrical pattern, you need to leave 10 centimeters next to a complete pattern. The cut wallpaper generally needs to be soaked in clean water for 10 minutes before it can be glued.
Apply glue
To ensure that the wallpaper does not fall off, the back of the wallpaper and the wall should be painted with glue. The glue must be applied evenly and cannot be wrapped around or piled up to prevent the wallpaper from being stained. When applying glue to the wall, the width should be 30 mm wider than the wallpaper width. After applying glue on the back of the wallpaper, fold the glued surface and leave it for 5 minutes. This can prevent the glue surface from drying out quickly and is less susceptible to contamination.
Trimming and smoothing
As explained before, about 10 centimeters must be left for the wallpaper to facilitate trimming after the wallpaper is applied. Cut off the excess wallpaper at the upper and lower ends. The knife you choose must have a sharp edge to avoid burrs. You can use a sponge dipped in water or a wet towel to wipe off the glue on the surface of the wallpaper. This will prevent the wallpaper from turning yellow and prevent bubbles from remaining in the wallpaper.
