Lining paper is hung the same way as normal paper, they are different widths. 52 and 53 cm or you do one from left to right and the other right to left as no wall is normally exactly X widths of paper.

what will happen to the wallpaper if crack line does not fill up? even crack line is within 1mm width

[rawleelp]

Can u wallpaper over old wallpaper? I mean must you really strip the old wallpaper off? Can it not just be used as lining paper?

Stupid newbie question inbound I apologise in advance haha do I leave the gap if its being painted over ?

[lukasjamroskovic]

Gents, This is good. But what / how do we tackle a wall papering task behind a radiator ? Call the plumber and get the radiator moved until we do the wall papering. Perhaps not. So it would be great if you guys can touch on more difficult tasks that you can come across when you do wall papering. That would help a lot. Thanks for this video.

hi my walls are pretty new so should I put the seal that you have mentioned? Am I able to put wallpaper on a drywall ?
