For the removal of small cracks and the rapid leveling of your entire wall, you can use paintable wallpaper such as non-woven wallpaper. An additional advantage is that your wall is extra protected against bumps and damage. Read further some tips and steps to apply wallpapers on your walls.
Apply non-woven wallpaper
Step 1 – Start from a well-prepared surface and make sure you can work at a constant temperature (otherwise you run the risk that the seams will reopen afterward). If necessary, apply a suitable primer for new plaster and plasterboard for a durable result.
Step 2 – Cut the necessary strips of non-woven wallpaper for the right dimensions (= height of the wall + 10 cm).
Step 3 – Work job per job in the same way. First, apply glue to the wall with a long-haired roll and distribute it as evenly as possible.
Step 4 – Hang the first strip of non-woven wallpaper against the wall and let it protrude against the ceiling and at the bottom. Press the wallpaper with a pressure roller (which you use for the seams) or wallpaper spatula.
Step 5 – Continue working until the entire wall is hung. Stick the next strip exactly against the edge of the previous one and always push from the inside out.
Step 6 – Remove any adhesive residue immediately with a damp cloth. Cut the top and bottom edges with a sharp cutter knife.
