Repair ... The mere mention of this word throws you into a shiver? This happens only because you do not know how to approach this issue. But everything is not as scary as it seems at first glance. So, by far the most popular decoration material is wallpaper. When planning to use them, it is important for you to determine how to glue the wallpaper without attracting masters to it and without spending money on the services of specialists.
You need to start with their choice. Although this is not easy, no one else can do this except you. After the choice is made, you will need to remove the old coatings from the wall. To do this, you need an ordinary spatula and a spray for water. It could be anything, a bottle of window cleaner or something else. Only in this case in the future you will be able to choose a wallpaper for the children's room and paste normally. Of particular benefit at this stage will be the consultation of specialists who have been working with such coatings for a long time.
Before proceeding with gluing, it is necessary to remove the skirting board. You can, of course, not take it off, but we want everything to be beautiful and neat. Next, proceed directly to cleaning the walls of old wallpaper. Gently pulling the edge of the canvas, located under the baseboard, you will hear a characteristic crunch of stripes tearing off the wall. In your hands they will softly and supplely begin to come off. The more you can shoot, the better.
All that will not be removed “voluntarily” must be wetted with a prepared spray gun and left for some time to allow the canvas to soak. You can repeat the procedure several times, after which, prying the edge with a spatula, try to remove the remnants of the wallpaper, this should not cause difficulties. Please note that at this stage you may need to humidifiers and air ionizersallowing to optimize a microclimate indoors.
If, nevertheless, the residues are difficult to separate, it means that they are not well saturated with moisture. It makes sense to repeat the procedure in those areas where cleaning is difficult.Here is another stage of preparation passed. Then it remains to examine the walls for cracks, all kinds of chips and uneven recesses. The bottom line is simple: the less bumps, the better the result.
Dependence in this case will be directly proportional. If you have chosen models with a relief structure, then the small unevenness of the wall should not bother you. If the texture of your wallpaper is smooth and shiny, then you need to pay special attention to the bumps.
